Yom Kippur is weird. The Unetanneh Tokef prayer is even weirder. Thus, I have always appreciated Yom Kippur services that find a way to incorporate Leonard Cohen’s song inspired by it. It makes it a little easier for me to mentally grasp. (Also, this song is an unexpected but incredible needle drop in The Americans.)

I listen to this on repeat on erev yom kippur - it helps me get in the zone!
