This day has developed a theme.

And that theme is new Christmas-y music.  A friend posted this link today.  It's the music video for God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen, off of Annie Lennox's new holiday album.  The first few seconds of the video I thought it was terrible, but then the drums and stuff kick in and I got sucked into the mystical, vintage-looking video.  It's so rare to see traditional carols reinvented!  Santa Baby and that kind of song is remade all the time, but not classics like this.  This may sound mean, but I think the only bad thing about this song is the fact that it's Annie Lennox singing it.  She has an awesome voice in many ways, but this is not the best application for it!  I think Sinead O'Connor would be the perfect voice for this version of the song...every bit as strong but a whole lot softer.
