In the Christmas book I normally use (I’ll have to get the title when I go home) Away in a Manger is recommended to be preceded by Silent Night. There;s this one part of Silent Night that kills me, for some reason… my fingers always trip up. So I decided to do Away in a Manger because … I could, and it’s my mum’s favourite.

If you know me, then you’ll probably know that for some reason, I love playing Christmas songs. I don’t really listen to Christmas music that often, but I play it on the piano. Every Christmas I play a little bit for my family… especially now that we celebrate at my parent’s house. 

As per usual, the recording quality isn’t very good. I just use a normal mic, so I’ve done the best I can do with it, haha. 

Here’s a recording of Angels We Have Heard on High.

This was recorded in November of 2007 and is one of my all-time favourite Christmas songs. It’s definitely my favourite to play and admittedly I generally like the instrumental version best.

I obviously don’t have anything like professional recording equipment… so I just use my mic. That’s why the recording quality isn’t exactly great.

Broken furance. :/ And me, painfully wrapping Christmas presents. At least they look nice in the end… right?

Another video blog with me … rambling about Christmas, the blizzard that I swear isn’t coming, my students and the visual kei fandom. A guest appearance by Watson.
