A broken goodbye. But we’ll meet again.
By Michael Hartmann. October 7, 2024.
“No matter what. We’ll never give up. No matter what. We’ll rise up above.”
These words are taken from the latest song by Israeli singer Eytan. Yesterday, he shared a message on Instagram.
He updated his followers about the terror attack on October 7th last year. Terrorists infiltrated southern Israel and killed men, women, and children. In total, 1,139 people were killed, according to wikipedia.
It was the most devastating attack on Jews since the Holocaust.
“It has been a difficult year emotionally. For me. For my people. Today is 364 days since October 7th. I thought this would all be done in a week or two but we’re still here. To argue for almost a year with people who believe we should not exist. I decided to speak up. I won’t let anyone tell me or the jewish people we should not exist. To the hostages still being held, please be strong.”
He spoke directly to his followers: “It’s been a year since October 7th and we still have not come together to recognize the fight against terrorism.”

His new song is called No Matter What. As a result of last year’s terror attack, the song has a message about overcoming challenges.
“A broken goodbye
But we’ll meet again
We have no choice
We will use our voice”
Here is the lyric video:
A master of upbeat pop songs, ballads, and everything in between, Eytan has a unique voice. His pop songs are catchy and emotional:
As a male singer, Eytan pushes boundaries by touching into the essence that can be found in female singers, thus adding a depth of emotions that few male singers are capable of conveying. He sings about life and love in a way that calms the soul and eases the mind:
In an interview with Cover Story in 2018, Eytan shared about his song Am Yisrael Chai:
“In the last few years I started reconnecting again with my religion and faith. To be honest, Am Yisrael Chai just came so naturally. I’m a very spiritual person and I love and believe in God and I felt that I wanted to give back to him after he has done so much for me.”

No Matter What Lyrics:
Verse 1:
Can you hear me
I am screaming
For you to hear my soul
I am holding on
To a love so strong
I can hear a nations call
We’ll fight till the end
Not a back will bend
We’re here to give our all
Pre chorus: x2
I’m here loving you
Cause If the world knew
What we’re going through
They’d love us too
Chorus x2:
No matter what
We’ll never give up
No matter what
We’ll rise up above
when it comes down to us
We’ll always choose love
Always choose love
Verse 2:
Another sigh
A broken goodbye
But we’ll meet again
We have no choice
We will use our voice
let it reach heaven
We’ll fight till the end
Not a back will bend
We’re here to give our all
Pre chorus: x2
I’m here loving you
Cause If the world knew
What we’re going through
They’d love us too
Chorus x2:
No matter what
We’ll never give up
No matter what
We’ll rise up above
when it comes down to us
We’ll always choose love
Always choose love
Bridge:
So let us pray
For better days
Let the sun beam down
Warm us with its rays
No matter what
We’ll never give up
No matter what
We’ll rise up above
when it comes down to us
We’ll always choose love
Always choose love
Chorus x2:
No matter what
We’ll never give up
No matter what
We’ll rise up above
when it comes down to us
We’ll always choose love
Outro: x2
I’m here loving you
Cause if the world knew
what we’re going through
They’d love us too
