Andrew Hill They're not saying Christians can't listen to Jewish songs or vice versa, this song is clearly making fun of the religion, it's funny, but it's not at all a nice loving song about the religion. So while a Christian can play the Dreidle song (sorry, I don't know a ton of Chanukah songs), this song is considered inappropriate by many. It's like when you make fun of your own looks, personality, belonging, it's ok for YOU to do that, but can be pretty rude for someone else to say it, and always rude for a stranger. Even if the stranger is a DJ.
Yes, I was responding to Andrew Hill's comment "That's like saying Jewish people can't listen to Christmas carols". It's ok to laugh at oneself but it's not PC to laugh at others which is why the DJ's can't play this song on the radio.
I'm Catholic, but I always get a kick out of this song. My man Jesus was raised as a Jew, I think He'd understand and appreciate us getting a seasonal laugh from the Sandman.
Gearing up for Hannukah 2021. My wife's converting currently so we'll be celebrating this year! Big love to the Jewish community and others celebrating their respective holidays this winter ❤
I think the funniest part about this song is that it’s mainly people who aren’t Jewish that love it so much😂 Personally I’m Jewish and let me tell you how many people come up to me and ask me if I know this song lol
THE REASON THIS SONG IS SO FAMOUS IS THE FACT THAT IT'S BEEN AROUND FOR SO LONG🤔🤷♂️🤨 NTM IT'S FUNNIER THAN FUNNY AND THE FACT THAT THIS GUY ISN'T ACTUALLY A SINGER 😂HEH HMM..!!??
You have to enjoy how Adam Sandler genuinely laughs at the crowd shouting the lyrics. Here's a guy who wrote some silly song probably when he was drunk while he was an SNL writer, and you got a large amount of people who loved it so much they memorized all the words. He just fell into it, without any real plans or goals when it came to fame. He enjoyed the craziness of it, as only someone who had no ego or sense of entitlement could
TheWholeSystemisFckd YES THANK YOU! I freaking love Adam Sandler! no one has ever really compared to his level of genius and pure talent. man oh man he just comes up with all kinds of stuff and he does everything and its Limitless. I swear when I watch old videos and movies and His songs like this it cracks me up!!😂 Then I'll be like damn let me watch some of his movies etc and let me show my kids the great Adam Sandler! My kids been hooked since they were 4 6 years old! lol but this video though like you said how he's laughing at the crowd that shit cracks me up man how he's laughing! he's laughing so fuckin Goofy and shit and I love how the crowd is so awesome and enthusiastic and knows all the words and sing with him it's greatness. It's like Musical stand-up comedy! awesome awesome awesome sauce.
I am Catholic, and I can tell you for a fact that It may not seem like there's anything better than Christmas, but one thing is every Adam Sandler Hanukkah song is better than every Christmas song
Put on your yarmulke Here comes Hanukkah So much funukah To celebrate Hanukkah Hanukkah is the festival of lights Instead of one day of presents, we have eight crazy nights When you feel like the only kid in town without a Christmas tree Here's a list of people who are Jewish just like you and me David Lee Roth lights the menorah So do James Caan, Kirk Douglas, and the late Dinah Shore-ah Guess who eats together at the Carnegie Deli Bowser from Sha Na Na and Arthur Fonzerelli Paul Newman's half Jewish, Goldie Hawn's half too Put them together, what a fine lookin' Jew You don't need "Deck The Halls" or "Jingle Bell Rock" 'Cause you can spin a dreidel with Captain Kirk and Mr. Spock- both Jewish Put on your yarmulke It's time for Hanukkah The owner of the Seattle Supersonicahs Celebrates Hanukkah O.J. Simpson, not a Jew But guess who is? Hall of famer Rod Carew- he converted We got Ann Landers and her sister Dear Abby Harrison Ford's a quarter Jewish- not too shabby Some people think that Ebenezer Scrooge is Well he's not, but guess who is All three Stooges So many Jews are in showbiz Tom Cruise isn't, but I heard his agent is Tell your friend Veronica It's time to celebrate Hanukkah I hope I get a harmonicah Oh this lovely, lovely Hanukkah So drink your gin and tonicah And smoke your marijuanikah If you really, really wannakah Have a happy, happy, happy, happy Hanukkah Happy Hanukkah
Adam Sandler shows some comedic genius and a bit of brilliance to come up with the fun and crazy lyrics for this great and funny song. It is hilarious and just so much fun. I listen to it every December to get in the Christmas spirit.
+timothy davis: Henry Rollins once suggested giving the Israelis the first two Ramones albums and the Arabs the third and fourth Ramones albums "Because Ramones fans can always work things out."
I'm Christian and I believe Jews, Muslims and Christians all pray to the same god. We're all connected in one way! I'm a Christian but I love Jews and I love Muslims.
Grew up watching Adam Sandler movies as a young kid , I’m 29 now and just now finding out he did live performances and they ROCK! Imagine how I feel lol 😂
I'm not Jewish but I respect the Jewish religion and its holidays. Hanukkah and Passover. The two holidays are similar to my holidays. Christmas and Easter. Remember, Jesus was Jewish.
I'm surprised to see your comment. Not that it's wrong, (I am jewish) but so few Christians acknowledge that. They seem to think he popped out of the womb as a Christian.
Dr.Watson there are many online who take umbrage when you say JC was born jewish. They are hugely offended. Just as we are when they wonder out loud why we don't accept JC as our saviour?
Chanukah is celebrating the rededication of the Second Temple, and you don't know what you are talking about re Passover. Why don't you talk about things you do know, like getting drunk and wanking?
My family decided to stop putting up the Christmas tree and instead celebrate Hanukkah were part Jewish and I was really upset my dad showed me this song and now it's all better
This song takes me back to high school when we'd play it during our last day before christmas break. No one in my school was jewish but we all loved the hell out of this song. Ah, fun times.
Its an awesome song. I miss the 90s so much. Happy times. So carefree. Nowadays things are depressing as shit. Such a ridiculous song and people are going crazy. Anyone have a time machine? Love Adam.
I'm not Jewish..but I just LOVE THIS SONG. I sing it all the time around Chanakha.
Me too ❤
I am not Jewish either but sometimes I am!
i wish i was jewish
@@heidiort2438
🤣 me too.
so good
I'm Christian but December isn't complete without this.
Nope this song is awesome
8 crazy nights
Jesus thought so.
Agree
@@LuStevens what about it?
I'm not Jewish but this is the best holiday song outta them all no matter how old it is. 😎
Agree!❤
yeah its cool
was about to say the same.
Damn straight.
Yep
I LOVED the crowds screaming it back at him. He certainly deserves his Mark Twain award.
He does deserve a bunch of fans tooooo
HAPPY CHANUKAH/HANUKKAH 2019...I'm not Jewish but I'm wishing all who are a Happy Chanukah/Hanukkah!
Thank you! And a Merry Christmas to you as well! Or whatever it is you celebrate!
@@Sunshine-zm1fx Thank you I celebrate everything good lol
Thanks!! And a Merry Xmas 2019 to you!!
You can celebrate the Festival of Lights every year. Happy Chanukah!
I don't care what your faith is. This song will always resonate with all of us 👍👍
Why? Every family in my neighborhood were the same religion..
Great song
Absolutely
they hardly play this song on the radio during Christmas but I always look forward to this
Its against the law to make fun of religion in public. If you are not jewish than you can get arrested for playing the song on the radio. If you were jewish than you would be able to play the song on the radio.
ITSyoBOYpredator that's unfortunate because a lot of non Jews love this song. That's like saying Jewish people can't listen to Christmas carols.

What matters is your relationship with God. The truth is in the Bible❤
Jesus the Messiah wasn’t just raised Jewish. He was 100% Jewish in the line of King David. Exactly as prophesied in the Old Testament.
Same
Jesus clearly a great man but it's still only stories from one faith against another.
Im Catholic and I gotta say I love this song and I’m here in 2024? ❤🎉
I'm a born again Christian, daughter of a minister but this has become my favorite "Christmas" Song. Thank you Adam Sandler!
I can't believe how hardcore people were into this song live hahahaha
Eli Lev Music o
Cracks me up every fucking time
Eli Lev hl
HEY
they goosed up the audience .
I’m a Christian and I love this song!
True blue Christian here…
This is always on my Christmas playlist.
I stand with Israel!!
Same here. God bless🕎✡️
Christian here. This is a must see every year. Love my Jewish friends. 🙂
Gearing up for Hannukah 2021. My wife's converting currently so we'll be celebrating this year!
Big love to the Jewish community and others celebrating their respective holidays this winter ❤
Good for ya'll, Hanukkah is in a week and a half, so happy hanukkah
I think the funniest part about this song is that it’s mainly people who aren’t Jewish that love it so much😂 Personally I’m Jewish and let me tell you how many people come up to me and ask me if I know this song lol
Happy Hanukkah 😁
Hope you had a very excellent Chanukah! Love ya!
Hope you had a wonderful Pessach
My main question from people is, what's the hat for? This is also weird after I tell them I'm Jewish and they ask me how Easter is.
Lmao
I am Muslim and I love this song!
@@EliteSports217 bro what
Are you Bosnian?
I call bullshit
@@Fister_of_Muppets 😆
we love you🙏🏼
EVEN AFTER all these years this puts a smile on my face! love Adam Sandler.
And I’m not even Jewish I love it
So do I! Lol

I love this man, his movies, everything he does is funny and heartwarming.
Thank you Adam! ❤
Happy Hanukkah 2020, this song never gets old. Be safe all!
@A B same to you!
@Mia Deblay to you as well!
❤️
Happy Hanukkah!! :D
@@ivydaitch443 same to you!
I’m not Jewish but I’ve always loved this and still watch it every holiday season
Happy Hanukkah from Taiwan🕎️
Happy Hanukkah from Kaohsiung
0:35 to 0:40 is the best I've ever heard Adam Sandler's voice. He has a good voice if he doesn't do "the voice"
Right? Like, the song is witty enough, he doesn't need the voices.
Pamela Spanos I had never heard him sound like that I was like is he lip synced what the fuck? Haha
In his newest special he sings pretty well.
I know exactly what u mean. I was kinda impressed by his normal singing voice too
so true
This song made me so happy when it first came out. It still does Thank you Adam Sandler! : )
Screams in the Microphone the whole song and still has a better voice then most singers now!
Not Jewish but love this song.
I AM JEWISH AND TONIGHT IS CHANNUKA AND MY WHOLE FAMILY IS LAUGHING AT THIS SONG
Putting it on my holiday playlist. :) Honest.
+ jake star true
Jake Star same
Vanilla Same here
this is easily one of the greatest musical performances of all time. it's certainly one of my favorites! hahaha!
not only does he have a good voice, he plays a pretty good guitar
I agree that he is quite talented.
Listen to his guitar solo on the Chris Farley tribute song. Quite impressive.
His playing during his tribute to Chris Farley is great also.
You gotta be joking
Most jews do lol most jews are extremely musically inclined.
I’m not Jewish, But a Christian. This Song Rocks! Jesus was a Jew! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
As an atheist I totally love this song!
Shalom y'all!

I'm not Jewish, but yeah, this song makes me wish I was, this one definitely lifts the spirits.
A yearly Hannukah Tradition, can't start the holiday without this song! Thank You Adam Sandler (aka 'the Zohan')!
Adam Sandler is a brilliant actor !! This song never disappoints and that's coming from a hippy Christian ✝️
It's soo cute how he laughs while singing lol
You think Adam Sandler is cute ? Fml…
Not what she posted moron
2020 this makes me think of my childhood. Kids these days are missing out.
Yeah, sure.. I’m definitely not fourteen and watching this before Thanksgiving
Totally agree they are missing out
I am Jewish and I like it
I'm not Jewish, so don't celebrate hanukkah, but I do own........a harmonica... I love this song...
....and smoke marijuanika??
I am Catholic, and I can tell you for a fact that It may not seem like there's anything better than Christmas, but one thing is every Adam Sandler Hanukkah song is better than every Christmas song
Happy Happy Hanukkah!!! I watch this video EVERY year and EVERY year I cry. Not tears of pain but tears of celebration of holiday season.
It only everyone could get along like this. I am busy looking at the comments and i have never been more happy. HAPPY CHANUKAH EVERYONE!!!
🤝🏽🤝🏽
3:35 - 3:41 Listening to tha crowd ALL in unison...Goosebumps
I celebrate christmas but love hannukah..cant have 1 without the other...wishing all the best to all the beautiful jewish people...
I'm a Presbyterian Protestant and l love this song and l love Adam Sandler.
Put on your yarmulke
Here comes Hanukkah
So much funukah
To celebrate Hanukkah
Hanukkah is the festival of lights
Instead of one day of presents, we have eight crazy nights
When you feel like the only kid in town without a Christmas tree
Here's a list of people who are Jewish just like you and me
David Lee Roth lights the menorah
So do James Caan, Kirk Douglas, and the late Dinah Shore-ah
Guess who eats together at the Carnegie Deli
Bowser from Sha Na Na and Arthur Fonzerelli
Paul Newman's half Jewish, Goldie Hawn's half too
Put them together, what a fine lookin' Jew
You don't need "Deck The Halls" or "Jingle Bell Rock"
'Cause you can spin a dreidel with Captain Kirk and Mr. Spock- both Jewish
Put on your yarmulke
It's time for Hanukkah
The owner of the Seattle Supersonicahs
Celebrates Hanukkah
O.J. Simpson, not a Jew
But guess who is? Hall of famer Rod Carew- he converted
We got Ann Landers and her sister Dear Abby
Harrison Ford's a quarter Jewish- not too shabby
Some people think that Ebenezer Scrooge is
Well he's not, but guess who is
All three Stooges
So many Jews are in showbiz
Tom Cruise isn't, but I heard his agent is
Tell your friend Veronica
It's time to celebrate Hanukkah
I hope I get a harmonicah
Oh this lovely, lovely Hanukkah
So drink your gin and tonicah
And smoke your marijuanikah
If you really, really wannakah
Have a happy, happy, happy, happy Hanukkah
Happy Hanukkah
I love this song at the end of Eight Crazy Nights. One of my most favorite Christmas movies! Love you Adam! Stay Gold!
He’s got one of the best guitarists ever on this. Waddy!
Love Adam Sandlet. I am one quarter Jewish.half italian. What a mix
Karen
Grew up listening to and watching this funny cat. Had no idea at the time what greatness we were witnessing.
Adam Sandler shows some comedic genius and a bit of brilliance to come up with the fun and crazy lyrics for this great and funny song. It is hilarious and just so much fun. I listen to it every December to get in the Christmas spirit.
The brilliance of this song never ceases to amaze me
Happy Hanukkah 2021, this song never gets old. Be safe all! 🕎
I’m 20% Jewish and I barely ever practice but I love this song
Happy Chanukah 2021. Greatest Jewish song
Just finished 8 Crazy Nights, better keep my Sandler going 🎉
I'm not Jewish but I love this song and my Jewish classmates loved it when I played this song in middle of a Russian restaurant on youtube. Haha~
It's amazing how one man with just one song made so many people feel as one with the Jewish people. We need to give the Mideast guitars.
+timothy davis: Henry Rollins once suggested giving the Israelis the first two Ramones albums and the Arabs the third and fourth Ramones albums "Because Ramones fans can always work things out."
There was a South Park episode where Van Halen ends the Middle East conflict
THE CRAZY THING IS AS I'M LISTENING TO THIS, THIS SONG JUST CAME ON THE RADIO ON 95.7 (BEN FM) (DEC 8.) WHICH IS THE CHRISTMAS SEASON
❤️ the Jewish roots of our faith! Yeshua IS the light!
Brilliant and hysterical this never gets old.
This Christian wishes a very Happy Chanukah 2019 to all of my Jewish friends in the comment section ☺
Don Scott thank you, have a very Merry Christmas 🎄 form a jewish comment section friend :)
Thank you you too lmao-an xmas boi
Thank you :) Merry Christmas to you!
And a Merry Christmas or Happy Holidays to you
Don! Merry Christmas back at you!!!
I really hope he's proud of this song. brings a smile to my face everytime
Don't care what anyone ever says people born in 80s had the best shows movies n music
I'm Christian and I believe Jews, Muslims and Christians all pray to the same god. We're all connected in one way! I'm a Christian but I love Jews and I love Muslims.
Yes, Jews, Muslims, and Christians all worship the same god, Yahweh (YHWH).
This ranks right up there as one of the BEST Christmas songs ever !
It's Hanukkah again, so I'm listening to this again. Happy Hanukkah everyone!
Grew up watching Adam Sandler movies as a young kid , I’m 29 now and just now finding out he did live performances and they ROCK! Imagine how I feel lol 😂
May the light and joy of this holiday season out shine all the hatred that's around us today ❤❤
I’m Sioux & I just LOVE it! This never gets old! 🥰

True. In fact, when you think about it, there would have been no Christmas without Chanukah.
Loved seeing Adam do this on SNL during the 90's, it was and is still funny and great, lol, also happy Chanukah and Thanksgiving people! :)
Man how I miss the 90's
I miss the 80's! But I have to admit the 90s weren't so bad!
My nephew loved this song. He will have a Barmitzmah in few years. He loves to sing that OJ Simpson is not a Jew.
Adam Sandler is a good guy. As long as you bring laughter& happiness to this world that's what counts
just saw Adam performing this on the weekend update sketch from one of the SNL Christmas episodes
can't believe he created that song 20 years ago
Chanukah 2019 anyone watching
Always will every yr. Happy 2020.
Yea smoking marijuanica right now.
This song would have converted AH to Judaism, perfection
OH YAAAAA
חנוכה שמח
Only Sandler! He’s the craziest Jew that all people love! Such a good song
Such a fun song.....brings tears ....we are all simple people.....
True!!!!!
I'm not Jewish, but I actually like this song. Christmas music is depressing.
OJ Simpson, STILL not a jew!
Is he a jew now?
But his lawyers are.
Nope! Still a thug!
TunedRAMS but guess who is all 3 stuges. Oops wrong lyric.
But guess who is: Hall of Famer Rod Guru
i saw this dude live back in early 90s and he wasnt really too famous yet and i had never heard the songs and it was great.
My family decided to stop putting up the Christmas tree and instead celebrate Hanukkah were part Jewish and I was really upset my dad showed me this song and now it's all better
Watch, purpose of life, by Rabbi yosef mizrachi,
Spent my first 6 years in NYC and know a little about Chanukah. Love this silly, happy seasonal song.
This song takes me back to high school when we'd play it during our last day before christmas break. No one in my school was jewish but we all loved the hell out of this song. Ah, fun times.
he deserves every cent he has made.
Its an awesome song. I miss the 90s so much. Happy times. So carefree. Nowadays things are depressing as shit. Such a ridiculous song and people are going crazy. Anyone have a time machine? Love Adam.
Fast forward to 2020....

This song rocks love this song especially around the holidays
ADAM SANDLER! YOU ARE AMAZING!!!!! MY SON AND I ARE CRAZY ABOUT YOU, AND SO IS THE WORLD!!!!
this reminds me of the Happy Diwali that micheal scott sang “Steve Carrel”
Abigail Clark That’s because Diwali is a parody of this song
That’s why I’m here right now 😂
@@mathwhiz702 sameee
He says it’s a tribute to Adam Sandler before he starts singing, I just finished the episode lol
