Silent Night (almost)
Posted: December 19th, 2007 | Author: Andrew Branch | Filed under: A Song A Week, Music | Tags: acoustic, Christmas music, Silent Night | 2 Comments »This week’s song is entitled Silent Night (almost). Almost because the room I recorded in was not exactly silent. If you listen really closely you’ll hear a baby sucking on a bottle in the background and a dog wining at a door it’s been banished behind. Also, almost because I take a fair amount of creative liberties.
I plan to do one more Christmas song this year (yes, beloved co-workers, I do actually appreciate Christmas music, just not two months prior). Next week’s song will feature an adaptation of I Heard the Bells on Christmas Day set to the melody of Leonard Cohen’s Hallelujah. My kind of Christmas music
. My wife sings melody so it will suck significantly less than my usual weekly song, so stay tuned!

Hey man, post some chords. Very nice.
I dig it. It was touching, and creative. Good job.
