A multicultural tour-de-force, "Another Day" by Israeli percussionist & producer Sangit blends elements of rock and Middle Eastern music into an electric new sound. Sung in English, Arabic and Hebrew, and featuring musicians from the Middle East, Europe and Africa, "Another Day" reflects a new direction in music that unites people of different backgrounds and beliefs to create a hopeful vision of the future.
This is the third installment in the Sangit "Studio Sessions" series, a multi-participant musical art project that combines power and emotion with the rhythms of different languages and cultures.
Among the participating artists are singer Sharon Azarya, singer and oud player George Yusuf Simaan (Ehud Banai) and many others.
All the pieces were recorded, filmed, and edited by Sangit himself in an unconventional production form in which the music is written during the process of recording as each artist comes to the studio with their own ideas and expressions.

ENGLISH LYRICS:
Here shines a great sun
Another day comes to him
And the heart again asks the same question
What will I ask of him?
What would I ask for just a melody
Here is another day coming up for him
And a new dawn will shine from it
Morning came upon us and the sun shone full in the sky
A new day is upon us, and the heart asks a second question
What do I want to ask him, what I want to ask is only a wish
A new day is upon us, and the dawn renews the spirit of life
Here comes another day
For us
The wind will blow away
The dust
Here comes another day
For us
Open your heart and pray
For us

ORIGINAL LYRICS:
הנה זורחת שמש גדולה
עוד יום חדש עולה לו
והלב שוב שואל את אותה שאלה
מה אבקש ממנו?
מה אבקש רק מנגינה
הנה עוד יום עולה לו
ושחר חדש יאיר מתוכה
طل الصباح علينا وضو الشمس ملا السما
يوم جديد علينا والقلب يسأل ثاني سؤال
شو بدي اطلب منه شو بدي اطلب بس أمنية
يوم جديد علينا والفجر جدد روح الحياة
Here comes another day
For us
The wind will blow away
The dust
Here comes another day
For us
Open your heart and pray
For us
