It was a cultural reset. 10 years later and it’s still such a masterpiece
@@avrahamcohensaban I watched it in Hebrew school.

Agreed.
Absolutely!
Twelve years later, I still love this rendition. Happy Hanukkah!
Happy Chanukah!
Yesss
@@Lyrics4y0u happy hannukah!
Bless your heart you rock for not giving up your faith!!!!!
thank you!
Still love this song after all these years and I am a Black American Christian.
This song is only 11 years old and, while I'm nearly 30, I still feel like I've known it all my life. Genuinely cannot wait to introduce my kids to it someday.
Ur not 30 with a goblin profile
@@charlottewalsh7979 Amazingly picrew doesn't have an age limit.
Do dinosaurs have ate limits
I ment age
I'm a Greek, and I still appreciate how hard this song slaps. Happy Hannakuh and sorry for forcing our ways on yall thousands of years ago.
Haha no problem my friend! It's all good. :) That whole slavery in Egypt thing.... We're still pissed about that one. :P
All good now
@@hrgirl26please don’t do :P
You're cool with us, come visit
We got an 8 day holiday of it, but don't try it again. Please :)
I swear I come to listen to this every year.
Noxiyu Wolf Same.
Noxiyu Wolf so do I, as evidenced right now
Sameeeeee
And hère we go for another round!
Same bruh
They always played this in Sunday school. When it was popular. Gosh I miss those times
Nostalgia brought me back. Still love this 😭☺️
Not only do you learn a bit of Jewish history and traditions, but also you're entertained by these talented, creative guys!! Todah Robah!! Thank you tons!!!
This is my annual Hanukkah video posting. Now it's a tradition. NEVER get tired of it.
This song never gets old.
My Religious studies teacher made us listen to this and we all loved it
Same
Ye same ha
Omg same!
Same. Haven’t heard this in 7 years
I haven’t heard this for a while I love it!
happy Hanukkah to all my jewish brothers and sisters Greetings from Turkey :)
Happy Channukah!
Finwë Has happy Hanukkah 🕎 again coming soon yay 😁
Happy Channukh 2018!
Have a happy Hanukkah
Finwë 🇮🇳🇮🇱from India
The takeaway from growing up Jewish: I only know the lyrics to this version of the song. Not the real one.
When dynamite comes on I mix all the lyrics with this one. Lol.
Fubfrjhhfhfjsichvdb Godinez Finich Finich hace
somehow me too, and I'm not even Jewish
then you think the other guy stole it
OMG YES MEEE
Now, in December 2023, after the horrific October massacre, these Hanuka songs seem particularly meaningful.
💙🕎💙🇮🇱💙
😢❤😢 ty
I changed my mind. October 7th TERMINATED any ppm (parts per million) sympathy left for Arabs, Palestineans, Muslims or whatever they call themselve!!! Their unhuman crimes have not been a declaration of war just to Israel but to EVERY living being that exists!!! ❤❤❤🇮🇱❤❤❤
Go Israel
What's incredible is, these types of videos you don't see "Free Palestine" comments in the comment section. The supporters of Palestine CLEARLY do not know history if they are notorious for commenting that type of stuff yet you see none of them here, or for example anything Maccabean related.
The suffering of the Hebrews should not be tolerated, and it's insane how it's still normalized today. I will always stand with Israel, the Hebrews suffered more than any other race in humanity. They deserve to go in peace.
Long live the State of Judea and Israel! ✡️🕎 Shalom! 🇮🇱
@@Roblox20626 And you will leave here hater of Israel
We are the coolest people FY
I' m not a Jew ,however this is so nostalgic. My teacher once played this and I just remembered it and spreads a nice holiday message and lightened the mood in lockdown.😃
מחואר מאוד
What a fantastic song! I was teaching ten year olds about Hanukkah today. The children LOVED singing along with this song while they made their own dreidels.
Their now 18 year old
My Sunday school playing this 100 times a year lol I’ve memorized it
haha damm same
12 years later and I still love it it’s an amazing song happy Hanukkah
i remember being 6 in jewish sunday school and memorizing this and watching it on the tv on the library and im currently crying
stop thats so cute wth- jewish sunday school was elite idc
@@buttqrflyvs6287 i miss it sm 😭
I USED TO GO TO JEWISH SUNDAY SCHOOL TOO
Inktoons.Dont cry,it might never happen.
The six year old I babysit makes me play this everyday. She isn’t Jewish and it isn’t even Hanukah.
That's adorable. Did she listen to The fountainheads too?
cute - kids are great
@@momkestner why do you think so?
@@WeneedmoreGodsinTshirts because Moe said the 6 yr old she babysits wants to hear the song daily. :)
@@momkestner you said 'kids' not that one specific kid. That's implying that every kid on the planet wants to hear Candlelight by the Maccabeats when they are not Jewish and it is not Channukah.
I remember in my first year of Hebrew school the rabbi played this on the computer before Hanukkah. Currently in my last year of Hebrew school but I will never forget this song and will always keep learning Torah 🙏✡️🕍
Whenever it is a holiday me and my friends persuade our teacher to play this song, and everyone in the class sings along and dances. We love you maccabeats!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I’M A JEW AND I’M PROUD OF IT
Happy ROSH-HASHANAH ,, from London

Happy Hanukkah to my Jewish brothers and sisters from Canada!
There is so much to appreciate about this song and this group as a whole.

Happy Last night
My freshman year roommate in college was Jewish and showed me this song and to this day I sing parts of it every time I think of Dynamite. Amazing
Still love it, years later. My daughter was 10 when this came out - she's 21 now!
Time flies!
Happy Hanukkah from India :)) 🇮🇳🇮🇱

Can not believe it's been 8 years since the song was released...
Happy hanukkah 2018

I want to mention also, the talent of the director and editor. This is a really fun video to watch.
Thank you! I am in my 50s, but still love to sing this song the entire time I am frying up latkes. This was on repeat last night! :)
Hello Maccabeats! I am unfortunately in Covid quarantine for the duration of Chanukah, and this song really picked me up! Happy Chanukah to all of you, and hatzlachah on your learning and chesed! Hashem should continue to shed his light on all of us!
Taking wormwood or ivermectin?
@@YHWH101 ivermectin didn't save the people I knew who were taking it 😔
This song is fantastic
That moment when you find out your science teacher sung in this xD
+CaitsMusicVids Yep xD
Lol
+CaitsMusicVids are all of us in ormiston
Are you sure?
+Jon Lewis XD in wich part?
This popped up and my brain just flashed back to nine years ago and I remember this video so vividly and when I first watched it, the first time this little Jewish boy had the perfect song to dance to. Great memories! Thanks for this amazingness!
So yeah, we're not Jewish, but my ex once thought his relatives were, back a few generations. Plus, I have an aunt by marriage whose mother survived Auschwitz. So I started observing Hanukkah with my kids when they were really little. Now, despite the divorce, finding out my ex's relatives weren't actually Jewish, and my great aunt passing away, my kids are hooked... And not celebrating Hanukkah would be as bad or worse than not celebrating Christmas. Plus, it's a really inspiring story, and more and more Christians are realizing that Hanukkah is important to our religious observances. Tonight I just caught myself saying "it just wouldn't be Hanukkah without the Maccabeats." 😅
Consider Conversion
Consider conversion..o did with my kids. It's rather annoying Christians are using g OUR holidays when they have their own, especially since Xmas wasn't celebrated in Jesus's time
ICONIC!!!

Jewish and proud ❤ Happy Hanukkah ❤✡️🤗

Can’t believe it has been a decade

This is so great, like eternally fun. We listen & sing each year. Thank you, you light up our Hanukah nights. Januka Sameaj !
It makes me proud to hear young jews around the world to not only continue the tradition, but to inspire others with such a modern beautiful vidio
in the Chanukah tradition
Ahhhh nostalgia!!!!!!!! I remember all the girls in my middle school had a crush on the second soloist
I love them! Every time the original version of Dynamite comes on i sing the Candlelight version
Lyric S. Rogers me too. Although I don't know when the last time I heard the original was.

How’d this come out 10 years ago
ikr
I can hear this song 2000 times.i love this SONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i remember my 7th grade math teacher put this on for us, shout out to mr walker
This is my favorite Hanukkah song I listen to it every year 💟🔯🕎🇮🇱💙❤️🎶🎵
Found this lovely gem after 11 years and it’s still awesome after all this time!!!
My husband just texted me from the waiting room, irritated by the Christmas mix playing so I'm making him an alt-Christmas list. This is first. Such a banger.
These are too cute! I'm not Jewish, but I positively love these. Blessed (belated) Hanukkah, all! ♥
This is good
Checking back in for Chanukah 5784🔥
Thank you Israel for preserving the Word and Jesus. My boys came home from school and said they didn’t want to listen to Christmas songs while we make Christmas cards tonight because we should listen to Hanukkah songs instead. I found another playlist before this one with accordion classical is how I can describe it. This pop song remake was a lot of fun. We played it on repeat. My boys told me about the helper candle in the middle of the menorah. Good work on the song lyrics and video. You all have beautiful voices. Keep up lifting your voices in praises to the Lord. God protect and keep you safe. Amen.
Thank you 🙏
2019 English people?
And I just remembered my pre-primary class always listened to this and we loved it!

Can’t believe it’s been over 9 years! I was in second grade. I’m a junior in high school now. Time flies.
Good song!
I am from israel.
חג חנוכה שמח לכולם!
אני גם!
In 6th grade one of our teachers had us all sing this. Obviously we all loved it.
Thank you for making these talented videos to drop a lil knowledge for these beautiful holidays!
We done a Hanukkah assembly in year three and we all sang this sing! It is so good!
Lotte, age nine. I love your song we sang loads of them and we are a public school!
i could watch it all day
At Legacy school we are having a winter production and we are singing that song I love this song
I remember my history teacher showing us this. That's probably the 1st time I actually wanted to celebrate Jewish heiritage as a Christian. We should know these things since before we were Christian we were Jewish. We should be into our roots as Jews and to have cultural tradition with them. Love you, my breathern! God bless ✡ ✝️
You guys have your own holidays. Jesus didn't even celebrate Hanukkah.
Now if a Jew invited you to celebrate that's diffrent. But to straight up light a hanukkiyah or hold your own seder is massively offensive to many if not most Jews.
Stick to Christmas. If a Jewish friend invites you to Hanukkah party tho you can go. The Hanukkiyah is a special object it's not for Christians to toy with
@@LizzyTheTransWitch The other poster is correct. Jesus did not celebrate Chanukah because it really did not become part of Judaism until centuries later. Yes we were aware of the victory over the Greeks etc, but it was not fully formed until centuries later. Whielwe appreciate the empathy, please stick to your own holidays.
I found this possibly 10 years ago. It's one of our favorite holiday songs.
I love how it gives info and good tunes👂💗
You guys are AWESOME!!
1:32 He is so skilled to FLIP a latke, while I fail to cook one correctly 😂
