CSOTD Bonus Edition: Mormon Tabernacle Choir - Carol Of The Bells



Got's to have me some MOTAB for the Christmas Season.

I know, I know: how does this qualify for CSOTD, I hear you ask?

Well, for one, Carol Of The Bells is my single favourite Christmas Carol. It manages to convey a slightly haunting, almost macabre tone to it. It could almost be a Halloween song as much as a Christmas song.  On a dark winters solstice you can even hear some echoes of Mike Oldfield's Tubular Bells.

And, second, whatever you think of the Mormon Tabernacle Choir, they are masters of what they do, and world class excellence is always cool.

So there.  Neener neener neener.

Don't like it, get your own frickin' blog!
