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?

Did you know that only 2% of Forward readers donate to support our nonprofit newsroom? That 2% make it possible for millions to read the Forward without a paywall or subscription — removing any barriers to the full and fair Jewish story.
But while the Forward is free to read, it isn’t free to produce. Big stories — like deep dives into the antisemitism data, political scoops or reporting trips to college campuses — take months of research and fact-checking. All while we keep you informed of what you need to know each day.
