operative451 Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 I'll start! And this would be a fun one for anyone in a church band to bust out to all the hung-over parishioners on Tuesday Morning: Knights of Cydonia by Muse is basically 'O' come all ye faithful' in a minor key: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ahpook Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 I think a lot of Cocteau Twins sounds Christmassy. (They also did a blinding cover of 'Frosty the Snowman') Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EliasMooseblaster Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 Scott Walker - "The Day the Conducator Died (An Xmas Song)" I know the title suggest it's "An Xmas Song," but despite the sleigh bells that appear in it, I suspect Mr Walker is being a little less than sincere in his categorisation.

Cosmo Valdemar Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 The riff at 2:35 bears a wonderful resemblance to "Stop The Cavalry". I wonder if it was intentional. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently the record company added the bells afterwards to give it a Christmas appeal 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
