A Lighter Side of Yom Kippur - "Desperate to Eat-oh": a Despacito Parody from the San Diego JCC

Last month we posted a Hebrew and English version of the Spanish hit song Despacito by the Maccabeats. The original song, which has been seen more than three billion times on YouTube, has inspired many other versions and parodies.

One of the most recent parodies was filmed by the San Diego JCC at Congregation Beth Israel. It's a lighthearted commentary on the challenges of fasting on Yom Kippur.

Wishing you an easy fast and a G'mar Chatimah Tovah. We'll be back Sunday with more Jewish humor.
