General Music Chat

Over the next few weeks im going to pick a xmass tune and give it my own persanal touch. Let me know what your favorites are.

"Silent Night" We often sing it German on Christmas eve services.
Or try to anyway

God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen
The First Noel
Carol Of The Bells

Didn't we just have a thread with the same question?

Maybe, I dont know. It may have been before I got here or I didnt see it.

White Christmas Bing Crosby

"Solstice Bells" - Jethro Tull

(I know it ain't exactly an Xmas tune, but with Winter Solstice & all, & the bells, it just sorta feels like one!)

Phil, you can't sneak it in just because it sounds good haha
I mentioned mine before. It's a cover of Lennon's (Happy Xmas) War Is Over.

I'm partial to the mariah carey version of "all I want for christmas"... good luck hitting those high notes

To record that, do you hold a cat and yank on it's tail for the yoko ono parts?

Yah, I had to go there

Hey jw123, I dig the funk cover

I love Carol of The bells, especially Ugh George ( I can't think of his last name but he plays piano on the Windham Hill Label )...Oh, George Winston is his name.

Any jazz version of We Three Kings, especially Dave Bruebecks 5/4 version and Ian Anderson's God Rest Ye Very Gentlemen. Actually a lot of jazz songs are great when done in jazz.

The Christmas Song .
It's the only one I like too play.
(I sure-'nuff don't sing it anywhere as good as Nat Cole, however.)

haha Kramer, still, the man had soul and nice lyrics. Anyways, the cover was recorded by a band called Shinedown.
