De la banda sonora de "The Jazz Singer" de 1980, Neil juega entre lo simbólico y lo irónico con esta canción. La letra está aquí abajo:
Jerusalem (1980)
You know that you can find me
On the way to Jerusalem
But I took a magic carpet ride
To a popular movie show
And that's where I found her
Was on the way to Jerusalem
She was hanging on silver screen
A Technicolor Michelangelo
Well I was rolling
On the way to Jerusalem
I was headed for the Promised Land
And nothing makes me go against the tide
But I took a little turn, yeah
Was on the way to Jerusalem
What's another day more or less?
You pay your money and you take your ride
One more day,
gonna stay
one more day
Then I got to go
On my way
Tell them I'm
on my way
But I need to know
Does Jerusalem close?
Does Jerusalem close?
When does it close?
Oh, yeah
(You know that you could find me)
Oh, yeah
(On the way to Jerusalem)
Oh, yeah
(You know that you can find me)
Oh, yeah
(On the way to Jerusalem)
...
He was so gorgeous!!!!!

Neil, your talent has blessed so many of us. Thanks so much my Jewish brother, for giving us gentiles great joy in getting to enjoy and having the joy of sharing your culture. We true Christians love you and Israel with all our hearts. While the rest of the world hates you (Israel), we pray for you and love sending our money and our tourist there. May God continue to thoroughly drench you and Israel in His love and blessings, until He comes. Ole Johnny B.
