Have yourself a Merry Little Hanukkah

Don't forget to light your menorah before sundown today

Another reason Hanukkah feels better than Christmas - Never a silent night among Jewish families.



After hosting the fourth night of Hanukkah,



now is the time to figure out how to send all the mishpokhe home.


Adam Sandler had nothing better to do than to update his song yet again - Chanukah Song Part 4 -



It's run by a big eastern syndicate, you know.


A Week and a Day   Boyz II Menorah -



Perhaps you can make this a regular thing on Jewish holidays


Kurstin x Grohl: The Hanukkah Sessions: Night Four -



Remember, there was no nepotism involved with Violet Grohl performing that song.


8 Days (of Hanukkah)   Sharon Jones & the Dap-Kings -



I want to know who the butcher was who sold Uncle Saul the brisket


Jewtorials Chanukah Special: Night 4: Gift Giving   Miz Cracker -



(You've got questions, she's got answers.)


Elton Johnukah    Six13 -



They really are such nice boys.


Happy Chinooka (A Hanukkah Song)    Gangstagrass & Kosha Dillz -




A Cutesy Country Hanukkah -




ACME Eagle Brand Hand Soap would like to share with you another of their annual salute to the holidays via Rock and Roll (well, some Rock and Roll). Today – Do you hear what I hear?: Male Performers:


Run Rudolph Run  Chuck Berry –



The song holds the record for the longest amount of time between a song hitting the charts and then breaking into the Top 10. When it was released in December 1958, it went to #69 on the Billboard Hot 100. In 2019, it re-entered the chart at #45, and in January 2021 - 62 years and two weeks after its chart debut - it reached its peak at #10.


Christmas All Over Again  Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers –



The song was recorded for A Very Special Christmas 2, benefiting the Special Olympics.


What Would Santa Do   The Monkees –



Yes I know, they're almost all gone now.


Please Come Home For Christmas  The Eagles –



Charles Brown was a Texas blues musician who recorded the popular R&B Christmas song Merry Christmas Baby in 1947. Please Come Home For Christmas is a very melancholy Christmas song, as the singer has lost his girl and finds himself unbearably lonely over the holidays. Brown wrote it with Gene Redd, who was a New York producer that went on to guide the career of Kool & the Gang.


Father Christmas  The Kinks –



In England, Father Christmas is the personification of Christmas, in the same way as Santa Claus is in the United States. Although the characters are now synonymous, historically Father Christmas and Santa Claus have separate entities, stemming from unrelated traditions.


Step Into Christmas   Elton John –



Despite its original lackluster chart performance, Step Into Christmas is now one of the UK's most-played Christmas songs. Since the addition of streaming data, the tune has become an annual visitor to the UK charts in the holiday period. In December 2018, it entered the Top 10 for the first time.


And, of course, Santa Claus Is Comin To Town  Bruce Springsteen –



Bruce Springsteen released the song as the B-Side to My Hometown in 1985 ( he had been playing it in concert for years,) and it quickly became a holiday staple. Strangely, many people consider it one of the worst Christmas songs.
