Tis the Season
In honor of it being my last week of work for the year, I’ve been browsing through iTunes for Christmas music, looking for particular versions of Christmas songs.
You see, growing up my parents had a tape of Christmas music that we’d always listen to around Christmas. I haven’t had any luck finding the precise album my parents had, but I’ve had good luck finding the specific songs (or at least they sound right to my memory). When you get right down to it, though, one version of “White Christmas” has a lot in common with every other version of “White Christmas”. And so it’s just a matter of trying to decide if the song’s tempo and the singer’s voice is the same as my memory.
I’ve had good luck following the mantra of “When in doubt, choose the Bing Crosby version.”
