I'm in the middle of my first internship, moved halfway across the country for it and have no family nearby. Wasn't planning on doing anything for Purim this year beyond facetiming my parents and asking about our temple's carnival. This song filled me with such joy and a sense of community that I found a local carnival to go to. I was too nervous to reach out to an unfamiliar community at first, but I want to take a shot and stay close to my culture. I've loved your songs for years and always go on excited rants to explain them to my non-Jewish friends, and at a time where I didn't even realize I had begun feeling so disconnected from my culture I needed this song more than ever. Thank you for all the joy over the years and all the incredible ear worms to come!
it can be very hard to be away but internship will be worth it at the end and i am sure there is an chabad house where you at, that you can join and they will likely to help you with anything future references for passover
I hate the fucking MacaBeats so much. Please don't let this actual asshole drip of a song be your only Jewish representation. Lil Dicky is Jewish. Please. Learn
I think this is your best cover to date, and that is saying something. Love how you pulled off the change of lyrics and making it Acapella! Such a kidush Hashem! Can't stop watching this video! I'm transfixed to the screen and how well it was all done! Kol hakavod and Purim Sameach! 👏👏
OHHH MYYY YESSS my sister was crazy happy. My mom doesn't allow her to hear encanto songs that much because she is very conservative in the lyrics she should hear. Now thank to you we are going to hear it a lot hahah. We are Colombian, the movie was based on our country and this is just amazing. Thank you thank you
Maccabeats, VoicePlay, Pentatonix. The best acapella groups imo. You guys killed it, only a few have successfully hopped on the WDTAB trend and you're one of them.
I have now watched this four times in succession. It's amazing! I gave up movies four years ago for a variety of reasons that I won't go into and this gives me major nostalgia. There are certain delightfully unexpected, particularly energetic moments to the song and I hear Lin Manuel Miranda in them. He's so brilliant. Thank you for packaging this to me in a Jewish setting! I get to enjoy LMM's work while being moved by Esther's plight. I think I'll go read a dvar Torah on Purim now. You guys get the credit.
I absolutely loved this cover and watched it several times. I’m one of your biggest Gentile fans ha and have been following you for years. I enjoy and am blessed by all of your videos and have downloaded some of your music from iTunes. I live in the Dallas, TX area and saw you in concert a few years ago. When you start touring again, I hope you can make it this way again. Keep using your talent for good, and many blessings to all of the Maccabeats!
I was not expecting this to start playing when I was doing some school work. As soon as I heard "Haman" I changed tabs, and I was entranced for the full two songs. Very well done! Thank you for making this.
So many good things to say, the dancers! the hats! and ... I think it's the first one in a LONG time that doesn't have an appearance by the orange NASA suit :D
Great, Latin beat. You guys should return to the (sound) studio to do a Spanish lyric version for voiceover. It would sweep the Jewish communities of Latin America.
Chag Purim sameach Kol Hakavod כָּל הַכָּבוֹד to all the honor well done, my compliments Thank you, Maccabeats 😊 Such a Kiddush HaShem קידוש השם Shalom Aleichem Gut Shabbos Best - Mordechai 🏡🏜cawfee tawk⏰️w/☕️&🥯's⏲️🥚🍳🥓 🇮🇲Threelegsoman🇮🇱
This was amazing!!! Great job, definitely a new subscriber for sure! I showed my daughter this song and now she wants to learn more about Esther!! This was fantastic. Keep it up 😃
