Put on your yarmulke because there’s a new Hanukkah Song<\/a>!<\/p>\n

On Thursday, James Corden<\/a><\/strong> gave the world a new Hanukkah anthem<\/a> on The Late Late Show<\/em> with the help of stars Zach Braff<\/a><\/strong>, Charlie Puth<\/a><\/strong>, Josh Peck <\/a><\/strong>and Christopher Mintz-Plasse<\/strong>. Forming the supergroup Boyz II Menorah, they debuted the festive music video for their song “A Week and a Day.”<\/p>\n

Paying homage to \u201890s boybands<\/a> and the Jewish festival of lights, the group donned matching white outfits as they celebrated the eight days of Hanukkah.<\/p>\n

“Got a week and a day of love this Hanukkah, girl,” Josh began. The Drake and Josh<\/em> alum was followed by Christopher, who sang, “Got a week and a day to show you how much I care.”<\/p>\n

Picking up where the Superbad<\/em> star left off, Charlie continued the jam with, “Got a week and a day of presents for a girl that shines brighter than any menorah.” Then, it was time for Zach to show off his singing chops: “When you light the candles, baby, I wanna be there.”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

After a velvety-smooth harmony, the quintet detailed what each candle on the menorah signifies as they opened presents. They began, “Candle one: You strike the match and say the blessing \/ Candle two: Your sparkling eyes reflect the flame \/ Candle three: Your perfect lips sing out the prayer we’re both expressing \/ Candle four: You make a latke and you call it my name.”<\/p>\n

Taking a spin on a jumbo-sized dreidel, the group moved on to Hanukkah bop’s chorus, which of course, called for a costume change and a choreographed dance number.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

“When the world gets sad, our hearts will free us,” Boyz II Menorah sang. “Just like Judas Maccabeus \/ When you light the candles, baby, I wanna be there.”<\/p>\n

Continuing with the next candle, they sang, “Candle five: Oh girl, you spin me like a dreidel \/ Candle six: You pick me up when I fall down \/ Candle seven: Then you wrap me up like a blintz and rock me like a cradle \/ Candle eight: Your eyes are fires that make melt. You’re lovin’ is sweet than Hanukkah gelt.”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

Before concluding the song with an epic key change, they treated listeners to some Hanukkah puns. In a seductive voice, the Scrubs<\/em> star<\/a> said, “Girl, Baruch Ata\u2014I don’t know how you do it.” Christopher followed with, “Eloheinu Melech Ha-O-love to be with you.” <\/p>\n

Watch James, Zach, Charlie, Christopher and Josh transform into the Hanukkah boyband we didn’t know we needed in the video above!<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n
