We Wish You A Merry Christmas!

"We wish you a Merry Christmas, We wish you a Merry Christmas, We wish you a Merry Christmas, And a Happy New Year!"

I've been teaching this much of We Wish You A Merry Christmas to my students in music class. It's been a bit of a struggle, but they're starting to get it. So then I had them listen to a couple versions. The first was by my friend Kemi Adegoroye, the second by Tenebrae, and the third by Enya. I chose these three mostly because they are very different. I was surprised to find that the overwhelming majority liked Enya best. They seemed to find it peaceful. I thought it was boring.
