The Eleventh Song of Christmas

It's just about here! This is my favorite Christmas Eve song. Every time I hear it, I feel like I'm in church, it's dark, I'm holding a candle, and we're all swaying back and forth singing this classic, wistful carol in unison. When it's performed right--as Scene & Heard favs As Tall As Lions do here--the melody and mood bares this heavy, ancient feel to it that just sails through you. It's chilling, and like sitting by a fireplace, all at the same time. A magnificent feat for any piece of music. Merry Christmas, everyone.
