Hanukkah is in full swing, and Dave Grohl and Greg Kurstin are keen on celebrating: each night of Hanukkah, the Foo Fighters frontman and super producer are uploading a new cover of a song by a prolific Jewish artist.
For Night Four of the holiday, Kurstin and Grohl treated fans to a cover of Van Halen’s “Jump,” citing David Lee Roth as “quite possibly the loudest and proudest of hard rocking Jews.” (“He became a rockstar the day he became a man: Diamond Dreidel DLR and Van Halen…with ‘Jump.’”) With his husky, gritty voice on the track, Grohl certainly channeled David Lee Roth’s enthusiasm — but with a little more growl and a little less glam.
Not only is the cover itself fun and nostalgic, it comes with a hilarious music video featuring Kurstin and Grohl playing the track live and — you guessed it — jumping. Need a little pep in your step this Hanukkah? Grohl and Kurstin have plenty.
