Members 1001gear Posted December 18, 2011 Members Share Posted December 18, 2011 Christmas Song. Can't find a good example though. Robert Doerschuk who used to be with Keyboard Mag did a killer piano arrangement for it but I've never come across a recording. If the Gospel Keys guys ever do a version, prolly that.

Members the DW Posted December 20, 2011 Members Share Posted December 20, 2011 My favorite is Larry the Cable Guy's version of "Little Drummer Boy": "Get a job you bum bum bum bum....money don't grow on trees you bum bum bum bum..." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SYMBOLIC Posted December 21, 2011 Members Share Posted December 21, 2011 I don't have a favorite per say, but I can't stand that Wings song that's seems like its all chorus. I think it's called something like "simply having a wonderful Christmas." Atleast that's what the chorus says half a million times. If I hear it in a store I generally leave the store until its over.

Members fusionfunk Posted December 21, 2011 Members Share Posted December 21, 2011 Gonna' have to go with "Have yourself a Merry little Christmas", as sung by the late, great Nat King Cole.Smoothest most soothing voice God ever put on this earth. Died WAY too young. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Buckin Fastard Posted December 21, 2011 Members Share Posted December 21, 2011 I mentioned before that I usually don't get too deep into the whole christmas thing. But if there is ever a song that will convert me it's This Christmas by Donny Hathaway. http://youtu.be/SeAO7y7k7dc Damn, I miss that voice to this day.

Members knightvalin Posted December 24, 2011 Members Share Posted December 24, 2011 Right: Let's get the ' traditional ' ones out of the way first..... Tony Bennett can pretty much sing just about anything and invest it with groove... nice backup from Ralph Sharon on Piano.. Ella putting a pretty ferocious swing into ' Jingle Bells'....... the Vince Guaraldi Trio are pretty much standard this time of year for me.... Any of the songs off this soundtrack will do. Xmas wouldn't be the same for me without Leon Redbone. Here's 'Christmas Island'. Leon Redbone. Dr John. Frosty The Snowman. Enough said. Although I'm pretty sure they were ' imbibing' when they did this one.... Now for a couple of Curveballs Robert Downey Jr: Does a version of Joni Mitchell's ' River' . Friend of mine played this at Xmas for me a couple years ago and was blown away...Not a traditional Xmas song, but the sentiment fits the time of year. RDJ does a pretty good job, and the arrangement is good. Check out the slightly creepy ' Jingle Bells' quote towards the end. and Finally, The Pogues with Kristy MacColl, ' Fairytale Of New York. Again , not a traditional Xmas song, but I'm pretty sure that we've all had to deal with something similar to the situation in this song over our lives, and add that to the heightened emotions this time of year and well...... Plus, its Shane MacGowan . Here's a live version.... Everyone have a happy, safe, and hopefully snowy Xmas.....we finally got snow here yesterday. Green Xmases suck. :thu:PEACE:thu: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
