A holiday music video for my YouTube pals... but be warned: there's nothing fancy this time around. This is just your standard one-take, playing to the camera type video. I meant to do this last week, but I got sidetracked. Then I got sidetracked on my sidetrack... so I either needed to do this quickly (now) or not at all... so there ya go.
This song was originally written by Michael Gurley of the band dada (see www.dadatheband.com for more info) and recorded live on the radio in 1993 (in Glasgow, Scotland of all places!). I recorded my version last night and then did the video about an hour ago. All instruments are by me... except the jingle bell, which was gratuitously stolen from "¡Que Vida!" by Love (1967).

Thanks! Well, unfortunately, it's been so long since I've played this, I don't remember all the specific chords (some of them were kinda non-standard, if I recall correctly)... and I never wrote them down. Sorry!
