Oftentimes, a niggun can soften a heart of stone when thousands of sermons make no dent. Here is Avraham Fried singing Machnisei Rachamim, form the end of our Selichot prayers, when we ask the angels of mercy to intercede in our behalf and help present our supplications before Hashem.
For those of you who have been asking, you don't have to do the Kapparot ritual with a live chicken; you may use an envelope with tzedakka money instead, immediately thereafter giving the envelope to a needy family or other worthy cause. Gmar chatima tova!
