The Obligatory Snow Post

[m31andy]

So yes, we've had an inch of snow in London. I've still made it into the office though (go me!) Let's see how quickly I can get back out again...

Because draycevixen is doing a list of her favourite Christmas Songs, I thought I'd get onto the band wagon and do the same thing. She's picking popular music, but as I love singing Christmas Carols, I thought that I might pick out some of my favourite from that genre.

Mind you, favourite seems to equal 'unusual'...

I therefore present my first pick, The Gloucestershire Wassail.

You can tell it's a drinking song, can't you?!

It's also my first embedded video, so lets see how this one goes...

God, yes, the unsual ones, and the beautiful ones. Like the carols we have up here in Sheffield, like The Sussex Carol and Sweet Bells, and all the harmonies. The Sussex Mummers Carol rings a bell too. And yeah the northern rollicking version of the Holly and the Ivy. :)))
