Haim Coming For Adam Sandler With Catchy Hanukkah Song
. ![]() (Radio.com) Each holiday season, the tidal wave of Christmas music leaves little room for catchy, whimsical Hanukkah songs: A blind spot immortalized in Adam Sandler's Saturday Night Live classic "The Hanukkah Song." This year Haim -- a trio of Jewish sisters -- pooled their creative energy to write another Hanukkah song, which they teased on Twitter Tuesday (Dec. 12), on the first night of "the festival of lights." The shot-on-iPhone video appears to be taken from a practice space, where the Haim ladies play with a drum machine and bass guitar. Lyrics about "courageous Maccabees" reference the Torah, while cultural symbols like latkes, dreidels and menorahs get shout-outs. "You be the Manischewitz, and I'll be the vodka," they sing. The tweet included a warning to the SNL alumnus: "Sandler we're coming for you" Read more here. Radio.com is an official news provider for antiMusic.com.
