The Best Part of Christmas is You
This year I wrote a Christmas song that I'm rather fond of for my wife, who I'm also rather fond of. [more inside]
Fucking the Snowman
This is a song that I deeply regret, but it's been going around in my head for weeks now so I have to get it out. I originally thought that it would sound good as a thrash version, but this seems quite nice. Please feel free to add an instrumental and send me a copy :)
Third King From the Sun
A cast-off 30-second demo of a Christmas tune you might recognize. [more inside]

My Christmas card to you all.

We Three Kings
One of my favorite Christmas carols. It starts out with some weird singing, but the guitar solo comes in around 0:50, and the whole thing opens up around 1:20. Worth the wait... [more inside]
Fairytale of New York
It's almost December, so it's time for this classic holiday song, originally by the Pogues with Kirsty MacColl! [more inside]
Deck the Halls
This is about the least effort you could put into wishing a merry f'n Christmas. Now with sleighbells. Of course.
Mele Kalikimaka
Sometimes I just can't stop myself.
Merry Christmas, everybody.
Merry Christmas, everybody.

Who's Gonna Keep it Together?
Kringle steals the singer's girlfriend and takes her to Berlin in his sleigh. Hardly a nice thing to do, especially around the holidays. [more inside]
Christmas in Tokyo
Three days into December; it has got to be time for some Christmas songs!
Four years ago I wrote this song, with lyrics in Swedish, to communicate my Christmas melancholy to my family. Two years later I was still sad, but now in English, and on camera... [more inside]
Christmas Eve (redhanded)
Yay pop-punk. Prequel to Chrismas and July, which I posted a few days ago. Part of a weird little vein of story song I've been working with lately. [more inside]
Rest Ye Merry
Vaguely medieval and dirge-like. [more inside]
O Holy Night
Despite my lack of religion and the fact that this song has been done to death, I thought I'd give it a shot.
Es ist ein' Ros' entsprungen
German, anonymous, probably 1500s. Still learning to harmonise using GarageBand. [more inside]
Wonderful Christmastime
My take on the McCartney Christmas tune. [more inside]
mmHg - Hark!
I made this a few years ago, a remix of Hark, the Angels Sing. It's completely cheeseball — but some of my friends actually LIKE it, so I guess maybe it's good?
Christmas Island
I made my children to sing on another Christmas song. In three-part harmony.
Merry Christmas, everybody.

Impromptu version of the holiday classic. This closed out the night for the Smoke Benders' last gig of 2011. Video here.

I'm Dreaming of a White Russian
Every year, I do some sort of travesty of a Christmas song for my music webcomic. This year, I decided to get crazy and do an in-character recording of it as the band in the strip. So the Awesome Boys are proud to present "(I'm Dreaming of a) White Russian." (the parens in the song title make it extra-Alternative).
donkey
one of my least favourite carols, but still... [more inside]
Santa santa (with your nose so bright)
My son's singing debut just in time for Xmas.
From Olga
Arnaud wasn't just about the techno noise. He was an enormous fan of Laurie Andersen's Oh, Superman and had assembled a vocoder himself by taking apart the family's old tube TV. His mother Olga, who was not an educated woman, could not write without speaking aloud, and so one day when he heard her writing a letter, he snuck a microphone under the rickety table, fed it to his home-made recorder, and began to play along...

It Was a Good Year
My take on creating a song based on the hilarious "For Grigori, I sold goat" -- A Christmas Mystery letter.
