""The Man with the Guitar," "The King of the Comedians," "The Man with the Guitar," "Energy Bomb," and a host of other nicknames have been attached to Finn Einhorn.

But above all, Pini is a creator who brings a breath of fresh air to the Hasidic genre. He is able to get an entire nursing home up and running within five minutes of plucking the first string on the guitar that accompanies him everywhere; he knows how to make an entire yeshiva dance to a song that is more than 30 years old; and most importantly, he knows how to bring electrifying energy to every encounter with an audience.

On the way to a new album, he releases an entertaining first clip for the lyrics "It is good to give thanks to the Lord and to sing praises to His name, the Most High," during which he "breaks the rules," is caught by police - and taken to a detention cell, while all the while continuing to cheerfully chant "It is good to give thanks to the Lord.".

""Anyone who knows me and my music knows that I'm always looking for something new," says Finney. "The song is meant to express the duty of gratitude we have to God, at all times, in every moment, and in every situation.".

The melody, created by Finney, is reminiscent of styles of music with an American flavor, and Finney Einhorn does not deny that he was influenced, among other things, by many diverse styles of general music.

During the clip, Finny is injured and evacuated in an ambulance by a team of paramedics, but ultimately throws away the crutches in favor of a sweeping Hasidic dance.

The excellent arrangement is the work of musician Shimi Skaler, who also produced the song. The English text was contributed by Lipa Shmeltzer, who is friends with Finney and sees him as a friend of the unique genre he founded.

Some time ago, Pini Einhorn released the song "Vamishtok," with lyrics written by the author of "Sefat Emet," in which he revealed his ability to evoke emotion and perform meaningful and profound texts. In the new clip, Pini showcases his playful approach to musical interpretation in addition to the compositional skills he is demonstrating for the first time.

""After you watch the clip, and discover that you can't stop humming the song, I believe you'll realize that my album is going to be interesting," promises Finney.
