    Also you don't have to be Jewish, It's a really good song for those of all faiths.

    You also probably still picture the singer of that song, Matisyahu, looking like this:

    But NO! That's not him anymore. I mean, it's him, but it's not him. In 2011 Matisyahu began to no longer identify as Hasidic. He shaved his beard and cut his hair. Then we were left with a Matisyahu looking like this:

    And now, Matisyahu has gone full surfer dude-ish.

    He has a man bun.

    And performs in skinny jeans.

    While he's performing he looks something like this:

    And most recently he was seen in Hawaii where he happened upon a performer singing his song "One Day" and joined in with him. Matisyahu was in full chilleisure clothing mode. The guy singing didn't even recognize him until the very end when Matisyahu was literally like, "I'm Matisyahu."

    So anywho, this is what Matisyahu looks like now.
