One last post before the big day tomorrow.

This is an AMAZING arrangement of O Come Emmanuel.  The opening acapella is cool, but it gets even better after that!  From what I understand this is a collaboration by three separate YouTubers.  Very, very cool.

 Today is day 10 of the 10 days of Christmas Songs. Songs you know by artists you may not.

Seeing as it is Christmas Eve, I thought it fitting to post this song on the final day.

“Silent Night” by Low.

Today is day 9 of the 10 days of Christmas Songs. Songs you know by artists you may not.

“O Come All Ye Faithful” as performed by weezer. Upon hearing this album I was pleasantly surprised.  They stayed with a traditional Christmas song lineup!  And not generic Christmas/Santa songs (save one song), songs you’d sing in church on Christmas eve!  Very well done…

Today is day 7 of the 10 days of Christmas Songs. Songs you know by artists you may not.

“Carol of the Bells” as performed by The Bird and the Bee.  This is quite an interesting duo if you haven’t heard them before.  The Apple/Mac/OSX video set to their Again and Again tune was one of the most creative things I’ve seen in a while.
