i grew up listening to "Around the Campfire," and even now its still one of my favorite albums. And to be specific, im only 17 years old. And I know when I eventually have a family, Ill make sure they hear these guys music as they grow. Its such an important message, that seems to be dying in this day and age of rap and hip-hop. There's something to be said for the immortality of music such as this.

@Rooster55199 Thank you for your comment. If you study a bit more deeply, you may find that the Talmud, whether you're using the Babylonian or Jerusalem text, is most often the beginning of discussions, not the end of them. Regardless, if what holds importance for you on Chanukah is that sacred oil which was thought would burn for just one night lasted instead for eight, then bless you in your celebration. Btw, the "we" of Judaism may be a bit broader than you appear to think.

@RevInterfaith According to Talmud Chanukah is not a celebration of the Military victory, but of the Miracle that one nights worth of oil burned for 8 nights, the amount of time it took to make more. Jews do not glorify war. This is why there are 8 candles on the Chanukah Menorah, and why we eat food fried in oil.

This song is 23 years old, and yet just as fresh today as the day it was conceived.
@Nickidewbear Channukah is a Festival which is celebrated, not a Holy Day to be observed.

Chanukah marks the first time in recorded history that a conquered people revolted over the right to pray. Today, the Baha’i in Iran know what it is like to be oppressed because of their spiritual path. Buddhists in Tibet know the same oppression. Too often, so do Muslims in the United States. Indeed, religious oppression is worldwide. On Chanukah, I light candles not only to celebrate the joy of the Maccabee victory, but also to remember that the battle isn’t won. Don’t let the light go out!
