9:30 Coffee Break: Hanukkah Songs

December 17, 2014

Last night kicked off the first night of the celebration of lights, Hanukkah. For the eight-day Jewish holiday commemorating the rededication of the Holy Temple (the Second Temple) in Jerusalem, we wanted to join the remembrance with today's 9:30 Coffee Break.

What songs should we play for Hanukkah? Be creative, we can play songs about light, or miracles, or whatever makes sense to you. Let's put together a playlist for today's Coffee Break.

Songs Played:

Jeremy Messersmith - "Miracles"

The Beatles - "Eight Days a Week"

The Smiths - "There is a Light That Never Goes Out"

The Rolling Stones - "Shine a Light"

Wilco - "What Light"
