Which version you like most? See below.

Once again I listened to the touchy and beautiful version of Hava Nagila in French and Hebrew by Kuwaiti singer Emma Shah (she sang this not without consequences unfortunately, but she is brave):



While listening I got drawn to the related videos mentioned in the sidebar of YouTube. A selection:

Hava Nagila Chinese style:


Hava Nagila Indian style:


Hava Nagila Iranian style:


Hava Nagila Thai style (s/he starts with the soundtrack of Exodus):


Aaah this is how you should play the song on a violin!


Hava Nagila Russian-American style:



And Bob Dylan... hah:
