AVOYP Community christmas songs 2024

Thanks Silvia! I’m not sure which pinky we are talking about :joy:. Can’t be mine, as he’s a real rebel and is giving my a lot of extra work to tame him. Oh, those C7 and Cadd9 chords :roll_eyes:!

Ooh, that was so… dreamy summer christmas on some white-sanded, sparsely populated holiday island. I can imagine that really clear blue-green water gently lapping at the shore and someone half in a hammock playing this while staring out across the ocean. So serene…

Oops sorry Deborah. I saw you complaining about people not posting their Christmas songs in this thread.
I’ll put a link to mine.

They aren’t Christmas songs, but we are festive!

I wanted to do a Christmas song, the one I would like to do would take more time that I can spare to learn the vocals and the guitar.

So this should be ok, a cover of Sufjam Stevens.

Edit I forgot to tell you guys the name of the song. It is “That was the worst Christmas Ever”

I hope this was ok.

thanks a lot @sairfingers @Jenndye429 @Ontime :heart_eyes: :heart_eyes:

Never heard about that song before , im discovering it !
and nicely played !

Awesome rendering of this classic by John Lenon ! :dizzy_face:

Im sorry for being so annoying about this topic but I have 3 reasons behind it :slight_smile:
1 : There was a festive themed open mic but many are afraid to play live and do not participate in open mics ( like myself ) so I thought that doing an open mic in the form of AVOYPs would be great to see more participants :slight_smile:
2 : Next year , it will be easy to bring back the topic to remember the good time we shared together , and to see how much we’ve evolved in a year ( and time to start a new topic maybe ? )
Its impossible to bring back multiple individual posts :frowning:
3 : Not the main reason but still … With my health issues I can t have parties like most of you will have for christmas and the end of year ( with family or friends )
This topic is the most social stuff Id have done this year , so thanks a lot for participating to it guys :slight_smile:

Keep the videos coming to the virtual christmas party !!!

Hi Debora,

This carol still gives me the same chills as when I was a child.
Nicely played and lovely vocal.

vocals are from the JG / musopia app :sweat_smile:

Ah - the joys of modern tech telling me to reply to multiple folk at the same time. Hopefully this works.:slight_smile:
@Silvia80 Great job playing and singing at the same time and in multiple languages.

@CT Hi Clint, guitar looks great. Nice playing and singing. Track 10 off my put up the Xmas tree CD.

@TheMadman_tobyjenner @batwoman Hey Toby/Maggie, hope you’re good. Sounds just as good now as it did then. Christmas wrapped up in one tune. Party on.

@SDKissFan Hi Jeff, nice job. Been ages since I’ve heard this.

@Helen0609 Hi Andrea. Loving that reverby sound. Gives the song an extra peaceful quality. Stille Nacht for sure.

@math07 Hi Mathieu. Very cheery. Definitely got the Xmas magic

@Ontime Hi Jason, never heard this before - I think. It seems vaguely familiar, but i could be dreaming. Was it in a film or tv show? Sounded good, anyhow. :slight_smile:

Hope I missed no-one.

Merry Christmas all - hope to be more active next year.

Oh, and our contribution to the party. Sorry it’s not a vid - too shy.

Digger & Katja.

Not sure if this tune ever made it to the States - but it was big in the UK and Europe at the time.

One of my friend told me that it was not supposed to be a christmas song when it came out , it became one over the time

Thanks for listening. Have a merry Christmas.

That was fantastic. I hope we hear more.

I had to look myself because I have no idea.

Here is all I found. I am not familiar with the this show.

Thanks Stephen for listening!

Compared to your productions it is not even “Kindergarten” :joy:.
I visited your YT channel, some great productions there and Katja’s voice is simply amazing!
I know your collaboration project is well known by the old forum members, I joined this forum only at the new plattform. Maybe you could tell us newbies a bit more about your musical projects?

Ooooh, Sacrilege! :open_mouth:
You messed with my all-time favourite Xmas tune before I heard this :laughing:
I was frowning for the first 30 seconds till the guitar came in and Katja’s harmonies brought redemption. Thank you :pray:
Have a strange year… :sunglasses:

My contribution, the simple version. :slight_smile:
