I came across this version of “The First Noel” a few years ago. Some of you might remember the alt-rock band; The Crash Test Dummies from the 90’s and their song "Mmm Mmm Mmm Mmm" and the lead singer’s very deep baritone voice.

The video starts out a bit cheesy but I love the sentiment: “Hey you dummies! That’s not what Christmas is all about!” And it is a beautiful rendition.

I also like this very much:

The Civil wars "O Come O Come Emmanuel"

I love this by “She and Him” – the first new Christmas music CD I’ve bought in many years. I love the simplistic and very stripped down sort of “retro” arrangements and who doesn’t love Zooey Danchell! She’s just so cute!

Thanks for the great links for our troops to enjoy.

The First Noel is wonderful. I’ve listened several times already.
