People don’t like the whole song to begin with.
The original is better. #1, if people like it or not, they recognize it, and that’s the whole point.
What a great video!
what you talking about. the whole world loves it. i cant get it out of my head.
There are many people who don’t like the jingle, but most Americans love it. Many American children go around singing the jingle to themselves (and make their parents crazy)
I love this video of the kids singing the song. so cute. are these boys in the video from boyszone?
I know the kid who sang this when he was nine for oorah. He is now 16 and learning in a fantastic Yeshiva, and still has an amazing voice!!
Who Cares! Kids are enjoying Luz Up SHon with the nitpicking
