Can this be that this song was done 20 years ago! That this is one of the most beautiful takes on this piece is left without doubt. Brad Roberts has a bass voice that goes down beneath the basement. Ellen Reid does her part in this song that makes one just tingle. Simply tremendous!!!
I personally think this is one of the best adaptations of a Christmas song by a big mainstream (back in the 90's anyway) group, the best one in my opinion. Radio stations should jump at the chance to play this.
WOW!!!! Haven't heard this in ages!!!Sure brings back memories! Hey, MR. Darvill? I went to Kelvin High School with you! Hope things are well with you! Thanks for the mem'ries!
my name is noelle! aahh! hes saying my name. but around x-mas it gets annoying cause everyone sings it to me to get me crazy. but i still love this song! (and im a girl.)
I love this. For some reason it,s ignored by radio stations who only seem to have heard of about 20 christmas songs and never play anything unless its a million seller. HAPPY CHRISTMAS to all.
if i remember correctly his voice is quadruple bass. which is f times as low as bass because i am a very low bass i think i might be double or triple and it is hard for me to sing
haha when I met the main singer of the band...at the restaurant I worked in...I was like can I ask you something and he was like yeah sure I am like you are the in band the crash test dummies he was like yeah but I though you where going to ask me out to dinner funny guy...........haha....
I saw this music video when it first aired on Canadian tv. I think Ellen (on piano) is so attractive. After all these years she still makes my heart skip a beat to hear her sing. CTD started around the same time as Bare Naked Ladies. I'm an American living in Washington state and I think Canada puts out some great music performers. Keep Rocking EH....
I think Ellen always looks beautiful. And she has a gorgeous voice. Think she compliments Brad's deep voice quite well. My wife can't stand this song because I play it over and over at Christmas--I love it!!!
Ellen released an album called Cinderellen back in 2001. I have been trying for ages to try and find somewhere that I can buy it so if you happen to come across it please let me know. Check out a song she sings here on youtube called In Defense of the Wicked Queen. It's one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard.
The Crash Test Dummies did do a Christmas Album, its actually a really good one called Jingle All The Way. I just bought it this year, and there is a different version of The First Noel on the album. Not as stripped down as this one, but the album is good.
"The first Noel" has been performed every single year for centuries. It wouldn't have been if it was anything less than a near perfect piece of music - that holds true of many Christmas songs. Hat's off to the Dummies for bringing this one that much closer to perfection.
