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.
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 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..!!??
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'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.
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.
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.
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 😂
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
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
+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.
Kaitlyn Brock ahhh, no. Comedy has been destroyed in this age of ultra-PC college zombies attacking anyone who dare offend their delicate sensibilities.
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
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?
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.
