Greetings and salutations Hivers. Today let's go into another Three Tune Tuesday post.
As always, thanks to @ablaze for making this series. Lots of people participate in it! Follow the tags to find a ton of good music recommendation.
Today I have ... well, we'll see what I have.
We're going to start things off with another Star Trek Christmas song.
Santa, When the Claus Fell
Honestly, I had no idea how many of these there are. When I loaded up my music YouTube account today, I was presented with dozens of them. I guess I shouldn't be surprised. Trekkies are geeks, after all, and this is just the kind of thing geeks do. Anyway, I'll limit myself to just one this week. Enjoy!
All I Want For Christmas Is You (Mariah Carey) - Postmodern Jukebox 1940s Style Cover
I know, I know. You either love it or hate it, and for many people it's the latter. Not necessarily because it's a bad song per se, but just because it is so over played. If you just heard it once, you might think "That was kind of nice", but when you hear it dozens of times every day, well... it gets a little annoying.
Which brings us to this one! Postmodern Jukebox has given it a 1940s style-over, reverting it to... well, the style that most other Christmas songs we listen to every year are in.
And this will make a good finisher...
Christmas Light Show Dueling Jingle Bells!
Two things here. One: Someone combined Dueling Banjos with Jingle Bells. That's... incredible. Two: They set their Christmas lights to it. Just wow. I've heard about these smart Xmas lights that you can sync with music, but I don't know anyone who's bought them and hadn't actually seen them in action. This is something else!
So what's your favorite?
