This is perhaps our crowning achievement in viral success. Back in 2013 when Thanksgiving and Hanukkah coincided, we created this parody of the smash hit "Royals" to celebrate the unique moment in time.
I wrote the lyrics to the song, and wrote and directed the music video.
At the height of it, the video was featured on Huffington Post as well as being the top video on YouTube's own themed list and weekly email. Between this and an alt "clean" version it has received over 300,000 views.
