Dave Grohl and super producer Greg Kurstin are having fun this Hanukkah, running fans through their ‘Hanukkah Sessions’: a covers series with a special twist.
Covering songs made famous by Jewish artists, the Hanukkah Sessions have seen Grohl and Kurstin already take on Lisa Loeb (‘Stay (I Missed You’)) and The Ramones (‘Bliztkrieg Pop’). For the series’ third instalment, the duo channel their inner Barry Manilow, covering the iconic ‘Copacabana’.
Their ‘loungy rendition’ comes complete with cheesy-aesthetics in the visuals, which you can check out below.
On social media, Grohl celebrated Manilow’s classic, ‘one of the greatest songwriters of the 20th (or any) century, but a mega-mensch to boot!’.
Barry Pincus – not only one of the greatest songwriters of the 20th (or any) century, but a mega-mensch to boot!
So, like a good neighbor, you deserve a break today. So grab a bucket of chicken and let’s get stuck on…..
