Rocking Around the Christmas Tree, Silver Bells

[happyorks1]

i am watching x-mass music before it was cool.

[qwexas]

I saw an ad for the Beatles Rock Band video game where pop stars were saying every modern band was heavily influenced by the Beatles. To some extent, but they underestimate musicians being influenced by other sources, especially bands like Abney Park (who no doubt have some Beatles influence) that they probably haven't heard of. As if what's on radio & MTV is all that exists! I think a lot of it is more marketing than music.

[qwexas]

I'm happy to hear someone who's alive now performing like this. I thought the style died with Frank Sinatra and Dean Martin. Yet this is no mere impersonation; the singer brings something uniquely himself. About Abney Park's music in general, I admire them for using instruments not typical to contemporary American music. I'm glad to see somebody exploring what else is out there & playing instruments of other eras & cultures for a unique sound.

[drkristie]

I always include the intro when I sing this - the part no one knows cause it's kind of neat!! does make it a bit longer though!!

Dark Christmas is about all I've listened to this year with regard to Christmas music!!

Thanks for this!

Oh, yeah.

You really don't get more steampunk than an iPhone!

You could always ask Jake Von Slatt to steampunk-up your iPhone :D

[Razgriz515]

I find it funny that while he's about being Steampunk, he uploaded the video using an iPhone.

[abneypark]

Hey, you have to see my Iphone! There is no more steampunk a way to digitally capture video and upload it to YouTube the MY iPhone. :p

[Cybaria]

You should make a video showing us your Iphone or something.

I wish i had a more steampunk phone. Mine just has a steampunk background (and 'Airship Pirates' ring tone, lol)
