Musical Monday Playlist - Other Holiday Songs

These are all the Musical Monday videos that I have posted over the years in relation to holidays other than Christmas and Halloween. I haven't really posted enough videos to justify an individual playlist for any holiday other than those two, so I have consolidated them into one list. I have listed the videos by holiday, and listed the holidays in the order that they arrive on the calendar every year.

Musical Monday - Chanukah Honey by Rachel Bloom

As I did in October, I'm temporarily setting aside the Five Year Mission set list, and putting up some seasonal music for the next few weeks.

Did you ever wonder what it would be like for a sweet young Jewish girl to long wistfully for you to propose marriage to her? Have you ever wondered what it would be like for Rachel Bloom to try to seduce you? Well, wonder no more, because on this the first day of Chanukah, here is Rachel singing her enticing paean to a nice Jewish boy, impressed with his MBA from Penn and puns like her Dad, offering latkes with both sour cream and applesauce. The only thing she really wants to know is if you want kids.

There aren't really all that many good songs about Chanukah, but Rachel seems to have done her best to make sure that another classic is added to the list. Just a note: Listen to the song all the way through before you decide to send it to your mother. Or your grandmother.
