Israeli Politicians Attempt Their Version Of Carpool Karaoke And It’s…. Interesting
To commemorate the Knesset’s Israeli Music Appreciation Day, four Israeli politicians filmed their own take of James Corden’s “Carpool Karoake.” Singing along (badly) to Hedva Amrani’s Israeli hit “In One Heart,” Knesset members Yaakov Perry, Zuheir Bahlul and Ilan Gilon joined Labour MK Merav Michaeli for one very… awkward? Amusing? Earsplitting? rendition that includes plenty of hand gesticulations endemic to old Jewish men lacking a sense of rhythm. No word yet on whether Michaeli will mercifully replace her backup singers for the next go around.
