Silent Night

This may come as a surprise, but despite being a Christian I have major problems with Christmas Carols. This is probably due to the fact that they are played everywhere, from adverts to shopping centres, or badly sung by carol singers out to make a few bob. In other words they have become commercialised, and no one listens to them properly. I do not go to carol services anymore, for this reason. I am probably wrong in this respect, but hey it's my life!

Just occasionally a version of a traditional carol jumps up and does grab my attention. The version below came out quite a few years ago now, but I have only just come across it. To me it sounds fresh and original, not tired and past it.

Enjoy The Dickies rendition of Silent Night.
