In the style of Psy’s hit “Gangnam Style,” the ATID (7th and 8th graders) Jewish Music Video class teamed up with Cantor Reinwald to create our new Hanukkah music video. We hope you love it as much as we do!
And here are all the lyrics, too!
Hanukkah Style
Happy Hanukkah
Hanukkah
Verse One
We’ve fought a lot of battles in our Jewish history,
Now we’re celebratin’ one important victory.
Strong and proud was Judah Maccabee.
Our hero of this holiday, it’s Hanukkah you see.
Verse Two
Eight days of Hanukkah, a candle for each night.
Use the shamus, you’re gonna light it bright!
Wait ‘til sundown, you’ll know it’s about time,
L’hadlik Ner, the blessing and the rhyme.
Chorus :
It’s Hanukkah time, the festival of 8 nights (nights!)
of 8 lights (lights!)
It’s Hanukkah time, the festival of 8 nights (nights!)
Let’s count them now –
2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 8, 8, 8, 8 . . . . .
Happy Hanukkah
Hanukkah
Hap – Hap – Hap – Hap Happy Hanukkah

Hap – Hap – Hap – Hap Happy Hanukkah
Hey… Spin the dreidel!
Hap – Hap – Hap – Hap Happy Hanukkah
Hey… Spin the dreidel!
Hap – Hap – Hap – Hap
Hey – Hey – Hey – Hey – Hey – Hey
Verse Three
Every year on Hanukkah, we fry a bunch of latkes.
Applesauce and sour cream right upon your latkes.
Tasty salty tasty sweet, those tasty tasty latkes.
Like to eat, eat, eat latkes.
Verse Four
Dr-dr-dr- dreidel, we made it out of clay,
Dr-dr-dr- dreidel, we spin it every day,
Dr-dr-dr- dreidel, we play it for eight nights,
Dr-dr-dr- dreidel, we’ll fight with all our might.
Chorus
Bridge (2x)
Light the night, the candles, oh so bright
It’s Hanukkah, we’re celebratin’,
Gonna make it right.
You know what I’m saying!
Hey… Spin the dreidel!
Hap – Hap – Hap – Hap Happy Hanukkah
Hey… Spin the dreidel!
Hap – Hap – Hap – Hap
Hey – Hey – Hey – Hey – Hey – Hey
