In Jewish tradition, a Levite (/ˈliːvaɪt/, Hebrew: לֵוִי, Modern Levi, Tiberian Lēwî ; "Attached") is a member of the Israelite Tribe of Levi, descended from Levi, the third son of Jacob and Leah.
The Tribe of Levi served particular religious duties for the Israelites and had political responsibilities as well. In return, the landed tribes were expected to give tithe to support the Levites, particularly the tithe known as the 'Maaser Rishon'. The Kohanim were the priests, who performed the work of holiness in the Temple. The Levites who were not Kohanim played music in the Temple or served as guards.
When Joshua led the Israelites into the land of Canaan (Joshua 13:33), the Sons of Levi were the only Israelite tribe that received cities but were not allowed to be landowners "because the Lord the God of Israel Himself is their inheritance" (Deuteronomy 18:2).
Today, Levites in Orthodox Judaism continue to have additional rights and obligations compared to lay people, although these responsibilities have diminished with the destruction of the Temple. For instance, Kohanim are eligible to be called to the Torah first, followed by the Levites. Levites also provide assistance to the Kohanim, particularly washing their hands, before the Kohanim recite the Priestly Blessing. They also do not participate in the Pidyon HaBen (redemption of the firstborn) ceremony, because they are traditionally pledged to Divine service. Conservative Judaism recognizes Levites as having special status, but not all Conservative congregations call Kohanim and Levites to the first and second reading of the Torah, and many no longer perform rituals such as the Priestly Blessing and Pidyon HaBen in which Kohanim and Levites have a special role. Reconstructionist and Reform Judaism do not observe the distinctions between Kohanim, Levites, and other Jews.

Shot in Super 8mm film (common in the 1960's and 1970's), S.O.S. is Stephen the Levite's celebration of his wife. He released the song and video on Valentine's Day as a way to further celebrate the love he has for her. S.O.S. features Wes Pendleton on the hook and is taken from the Levite's second studio album, "The Last Missionary".

Morning comes slow when you don't know
If your gonna make it there so you bite your nails and pull your hair
You grind your teeth and man don't you do your share
It's a wicked addiction, pure friction
And the truth about your lies is their all just fiction
And now I know so I'm just gonna have to let you go
And it took you to show me how
That it takes two to bring each other down
You brought me down
Day moves quick when you stick yourself sick
For an hour you float then it's all back down
You pass the others as your leaving town
And it's a crooked affliction your mind gets spinning
And your spine gets twisted
And everybody that you know is out to take everything you own
Each other
Night moves fast the shadows that you cast
Run away from you
And everyone that you touch turns blue
And their all watching you
And it's a wicked addiction, pure friction
And the truth about your lies
Is their all just fiction and now I know
So I'm gonna have to let you go
And it's a wicked addiction pure friction
