Backpacking Dad’s Christmas Album, Track #1 “O Holy Night”

Posted on 12/02/201003/20/2011 by Backpacking Dad

I was up way too late last night watching a capella videos on Youtube. There are a lot of people who like to sing into a camera and then let everyone on the Internet watch.

And now I’m one of them.

This is my favourite Christmas carol. I’m no Josh Groban, but I think I handle it okay.

 

Now I’m just going to sit back and wait for my Internet millions.

    You should do a duet with your wife, I know she can sing too!

      We totally sang a duet of this on a street corner in San Francisco on Thursday night.

    I am suitably impressed. Funny, smart *and* can carry a tune?

      You forgot really really ridiculously good-looking.

      Or maybe you didn't. Hmm. Thanks for calling me ugly Jocelyne. Thanks.

    I'm impressed. You have a really nice voice. That is my favorite too an I was prepared for disaster, because it happens with that song. (You know what I mean!) I should have known better than to doubt your abilities. Good job.

      I was prepared for disaster too, which is why I made very sure that song, unlike Journey's "Lights" is in a key I can sing.

    All I can say is Wow. ok, Maybe not *all* I can say. This is one of my favorites, and it is one of the hardest to sing. And you give me chills singing it (chills are a good thing…) Amazing. Really. Bravo

    You sound just like the guy who sings the anthem for Canucks games. But sensitive.

    Um, why did my comment post twice?

      I didn’t even get a notice that it posted the first time. Or the second time. Did you leave a comment? Did you just leave this comment? I don’t know what’s going on. Disqus is confusing.

    So, there’s something disconcerting about such a beautiful song coming out of a face adorned with a devil goatee.

    It’s confusing me…

    Very impressive. Seriously. However, there was a moment when I had to turn my back on the video and you hit one of those loud, long notes, and it damn near scared the hell out of me.
