Hilarious Carols

It is nearly Christmas, and you know what that means...children going from door to door singing (not necessarily beautifully) Christmas carols. In addition, the Christmas songs are taking over the airwaves, so that every time you turn the radio on you get 'Driving Home for Christmas', 'All I Want for Christmas' (with Justin Bieber singing this year, just as a treat), or (horrors of horrors) 'Twelve Days of Christmas'. I'm not saying I'm opposed to Christmas carols, they do get you in the Christmas spirit (whatever that is). It's just that I get a bit fed up with listening to the same (old) unoriginal songs over and over (and over, and over, and over....you get it) again.

So this year, what about the old boring Christmas carols with a twist on them? Youtube has this audio transcription tool which quite often does quite a bad job of transcribing the things that are being said in the video. This can often turn out really funny, like in this video, where these two guys (called Rhett and Link) sang some Christmas carols, uploaded them to youtube, and then used the audio transcription to make a new video with the new lyrics. Among the things the poor lover gets during the twelve days of Christmas are experienced ranch hands and two fertile doves (I can't stop laughing). It is quite hilarious, on the whole.

I hope this will brighten up your December day (if the Christmas lights aren't helping), and I'll be back later (when one of my two exams will be done - yay!).
