It's time for my annual trip around YouTube to find some of the best videos about and celebrating Hanukkah. White the videos below are fun and/or entertaining, none of them mention the new-ish tradition of pickles during the holiday. I don't have any musical talent, so maybe next year someone will mention pickles in one of their songs.
A long-running subplot of this blog is that there must be some type of rivalry between the a cappella groups Six13 and The Maccabeats. They're like the sharks and the jets. Or Coca-Cola and Pepsi. This year, both groups took this rivalry to a whole new level by both having songs related to Wicked.
There's a new (at least to me) a cappella group on the scene, Y-Studs. It's almost like they're the channel 2 news team in Anchorman.
Since I visited Winnipeg earlier this fall, let's hear about the Hanukkah celebration in Manitoba.
How about some historical context about the holiday courtesy of Epcot.
A big deal is being made about Christmas and Hanukkah falling on the same day. This is from CBS:
Back to music. Kosha Dillz has a new Hanukkah song.
A land called Sufganiyot? Yes please!
Finally, this is just a clip of Spidey and The Thing saving Hanukkah by getting latkes back. I really want to see how this started (and if there are pickles involved).
Happy Hanukkah to those who are celebrating. And Merry Christmas to those who are celebrating too.
