Sometimes the Wifey Plays Along

My wife and I don't do a "song" every Christmas season, but from time to time we do. We didn't do one this year, and probably won't. After all, Christmas is tomorrow and it would probably be pointless, even though we'd have another one to share for next year.
We've done two of these over the years. This one we did back in December of 2021, our goofing around with "Mary Did You Know."
We're never serious about it. We just have fun with it, and usually the family enjoys listening to these. And of course, I enjoy sharing them with friends, like you, my people here on myLot.
I hope your ears don't bleed too badly, and Merry Christmas to y'all.

It's great that you & the wife can put some
fun in your lives when ever you can, not many
people do such things like that these days.

@porwest if that's what keeps your
lives interesting, then why not?

@2ndchances24 Interesting may be a very light way of putting it.

@porwest Yep, you two should definitely do this together more often. Thanks for sharing the song.

We need to do more of it honestly. Besides the little Christmas things we have done, we've only done two or three "covers," or other things. She did a really good job, I think on "Nights in White Satin." I put together all the guitar parts and bass and programmed in the drums and she sang it. One of our best, if I say so myself. Thought it would be worth sharing if I haven't already.

@moffittjc I guess we may try to do one this year. We'll have to wait and see.

I had forgotten about this. You took my favorite Christmas song, the one that gives me goosebumps and have done your own version. :-( Merry Christmas! Do you do Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer?

@Beestring Thanks. She actually does enjoy when I share it. I always tell her, it is supposed to be raw and "uncut," that's what makes it fun.
