SUPERMAN Music for Alon

John Ondrasik of Five For Fighting

Singing for the Superman-like strength of all the Hostages like Alon Ohel, and their families.

John Ondrasik— the songwriter and performer known as the platinum-selling, Grammy-nominated, Five For Fighting—knows this well. In the two decades since his first major single, “Superman (It’s Not Easy),” hit the stratosphere, the artist has both evolved and come back ‘round full circle. Creativity, if nothing else, is paradoxical.

On 7 October 2023, Alon Ohel אלון אהל born February 10, 2001, an Israeli pianist, was abducted by Hamas during the Nova Music Festival Massacre. He was held hostage in the Gaza Strip for 2 years until his release on October 13, 2025 as part of the Gaza peace plan.
