Banging and Bumping

Of the traditional Christmas songs, the one that's always stood out to me is "God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen". This could be due in large part to a holiday episode of some random stop-motion series from the early 90s called "Bump in the Night". Or something. Anyway, the protagonists had to go to Santa's lair for some mission. Maybe Santa was a robot? He was definitely antagonistic, and he had a snowman army that sang that song like an army chant without actually changing it that much. It just worked, and it's been stuck in my head like that since. So yeah. "God Rest" has got to be my number 1 seasonal banger.

 

Bonus Question!

Merriest gentleman?

Psy.

Digging It

I'm not going to say that "Iron Man 3" is my favourite Christmas movie. It's facing some really stiff competition from "The Muppet Christmas Carol" and "The Santa Clause". I suppose that I can give ot third place behind those two. It's even numerically appropriate. But as it is a Christmas film, its theme song must perforce count as a carol. Thus, "Can You Dig It" is indeed my new favourite Christmas carol.



Bonus Question!

Well? Can you?

Obviously.
