Title: Y-Studs - A Jackson 5 Chanukah (*from 0:23 mins)

Description:  Spin the dreidel, light the candles, and get ready to dance! The Y-Studs are back with our grooviest release yet, A Jackson 5 Chanukah! This year, we’re fusing the soulful sounds of Motown with the timeless story of Chanukah. Just like the Maccabees brought light to the darkness, the Jackson 5 brought joy and energy to music - and we couldn’t think of a better way to celebrate the Festival of Lights. Chanukah is all about perseverance, miracles, and spreading light, and we hope this fun, soulful twist on some classics brings that spirit to life for you. Who says you can’t dance while lighting the Menorah?
