Every year I try to hold off until mid November to start listening to carols, but 2020 has been miserable so I started at the end of September! Very happy to have found this rendition to add to the playlist :)

Being a member of a choir carries with it the despair of having to sing such rubbish. Looking forward to Xmas being over.

[@GamerGuyMatt1892]

gegemec rubbish? Are you wise? One of the most wonderful carols ever written, with such spirit inspired lyrics, and you in your utter pretence, deem it “rubbish”? Have a word with yourself

The banality of Rutter's arrangement would be a joke if we didn't have to sing it.
