Happy Hanukkah and Happy Friday friends!!! The nights keep passing and the lights keep glowing. Today, I thought I'd share another fun music video post for my Fun Find Friday. I went through a DIY wreath video phase earlier this month and now it appears that I'm on a rap music video kick... but I digress. Let's just roll (the dreidel) with it!
I want to start by saying that it's not always that easy to find fun Hanukkah music. Eliot and I have a humungous list of Christmas favorites, but Hanukkah songs are harder to come by. When I first found out about this song, and the accompanying music video, I was so excited! It debuted two years ago and features Daveed Diggs. If you're a fan of Hamilton, you'll recognize him as Marquis de Lafayette and Thomas Jefferson.

Of course, at the time I had just been introduced to Hamilton a few months earlier, so I absolutely had to watch the music video for the new Hanukkah song. At first, I was a little bit disappointed that Daveed wasn't in it, but then I realized it made more sense to show kids since the song was geared towards them. Plus, it was great to see people of color and different ethnicities being portrayed as Jewish.
The song and video is definitely geared towards kids, but Eliot and I listen to it every once in a while. (And it's so catchy that I usually get it stuck in my head afterwards.) I actually played it earlier this week on the first night of Hanukkah when I gave Eliot his Hanukkah present that I bought both of us- matching Mickey Mouse Hanukkah shirts!
I hope you enjoyed this little nugget of a fun find. I'm sorry for getting it stuck in your head now. But you have to agree that it was worth it because the puppy is so cute!
Happy Hanukkah!!! °o°
