Happy Hanukkah!

“I spin my latkes in the air sometimes, singing ay, oh, spin the dreidel…”

The Maccabeats, a cappella group of Yeshiva University, had me singing Alleluia with this playful takeoff on “Dynamite.” Enjoy!

    I saw this yesterday morning. It’s so catchy! Two of the Jewish teachers at the high school where I teach showed it to me. They loved it. They’re talking about Hanukkah at the morning assembly on Monday, and we’re showing this video as part of their talk.
