Merry Christmas from the Greg_L family! - 2012 edition

[Greg_L]

Some of you know that every year the kiddos and I record a secret Christmas song for momma. She never knows what it is until we give it to her. So once again here's my annual Christmas song with the kiddies.

Merry Christmas!

I Want A Hippopotamus For Christmas

 

[Dogman]

Well, we all know there will be no Christmas this year as the world ends on the 21st...

Good one Gerg...pretty fun listen....Mama should like it.

Thanks Boob. You too.

That's an old, old christmas song, like from the early 50's or something. It was sung by a little girl. Kind of Shirley Temple-ish.

Fun song. I liked it. Kazoo was a nice touch.

 

[Lt. Bob]

Kazoo was a nice touch.

fun fact:
kazoo is gregs go-to when a track needs a little 'sparkle'.

Thanks dude. Marry christmas.

Lol. That's not too far from the truth. I have to restrain myself from putting it on just about every song.

 

[TripleM]

I spell "sparkly top end" - K-A-Z-O-O!!

Nice family tradition. When the kids get married you should give each one a compilation CD of every year (they could torture their spouse with it later on). This is becoming a tradition here at homerecording.com as well. Happy holidays to you and your family, Gergopottomus

 

[queepy]

Ha! Great....like the little slide whistle :>) Merry Christmas to you and your family!

You ever look at a kazoo track on a spectrum analyzer? It's like...low end, nothing....midrange, nothing....high end, WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH!

Is that a butt? <3 You butt hiphopanonymouses?

Thanks you too. Hopefully there won't be any marriages in the near future. I want them to get married when they're old.

Thanks queepy, you too.

I actually got a hippopotamus for Christmas last year, it was an abso-f@cking-lutely unmitigated disaster.

Great song and a great updated version, my kids have been singing along

 

[rayc]

An excellent addition to the seasonal spice tray. I think I have the last several stashed away somewhere - must play on xmas day! How about a Texas Xmas song? F You I like Xmas, particularly when it's in Texas kind of thing.
Thanks Greg.

 

[jonny deep]

Hey Gerg - this even sounded great on my tinny laptop speakers. Most enjoyable - was the slide whistle thing real or a sample? I was just thinking of getting a kazoo the other day, you know.

Merry Christmas everyone!!!

Thanks Ray. I don't know any Texas themed Christmas songs. I'm sure there are some though with the ego this state has. Maybe Ill write one for next year.

Thanks dude, you too. The slide whistle is real. I have a nice little collection of noisemakers and odd stuff. I have two slide whistles. One's wood, and one's metal. This was the metal one. I need to get a new siren whistle. The one I used for this song doesn't sustain like it used to. Seriously.

My fave is my rattle clap. When I went to buy it, I only knew what it sounded like and was trying to describe what I thought it was (i.e. something that spins, similar to a football rattle) to the man (well, boy) in the shop. It didn't go well, then I spotted it on the way out and the penny dropped.

Ace Of Spades would have ruled with a bit more slide whistle....

Lol. Nice. Post a pic of one so I know what you're talking about. I might need to get one.

Nevermind - just googled it. It's a vibraslap. I got one of those already.

Good idea. I'm gonna redo it.
