While we eagerly await the next version of Adam Sandler’s “The Chanukah Song,” here’s a video of the previous iteration, released around this time last year.
The last list of people is presented here in full:
- Jesus
- Olaf (the snowman from “Frozen”)/Josh Gad
- Punky Brewster/Soleil Moon Frye
- Scott Rudin
- Joseph Gordon Levitt
- Stan Lee
- Jake Gyllenhaal
- “The two guys who founded Google” (Larry Page & Sergey Brin)
- Adam Levine
- Drake
- Seth Rogen
- Goldberg (this Goldberg)
- Scarlett Johansson
- Geddy Lee
- Jonas Salk
- Harry Potter/Daniel Radcliffe
- Jared From Subway (“goddamnit a Jew” Sandler sang)
- Dr. Drew
- Princess Leia (or should it be “Leah”)/Carrie Fisher
- Queen Elsa from “Frozen” (I guess if her snowman is Jewish…)/Idina Menzel
- David Beckham (“a quarter chosen”)
- Ron Jeremy
- Shia LaBeouf
- Ben and Jerry
Like always, Sandler’s song brought the house down (the Jared joke in particular). After his long spate of bad movies, it was great to see that Sandler’s still got it – when he wants to, at least.
Hopefully we’re in for a fifth version this year. Who do you think will be on next list?

I hope you appreciated this article. Before you go, I’d like to ask you to please support the Forward.
At a time when other newsrooms are closing or cutting back, the Forward has removed its paywall and invested additional resources to report on the ground from Israel and around the U.S. on the impact of the war, rising antisemitism and polarized discourse.
Readers like you make it all possible. We’ve started our Passover Fundraising Drive, and we need 1,800 readers like you to step up to support the Forward by April 21. Members of the Forward board are even matching the first 1,000 gifts, up to $70,000.
This is a great time to support independent Jewish journalism, because every dollar goes twice as far.
