Adventunes 1: Hush, winter time.

It's December! YEAH! So. Even people who don't understand about the four Sundays thing still have to admit that it's now, officially, advent.

Which means:

Advent treats! This year, Charlie and I, inspired by our summer Wikipedia Challenge at Arteles, have decided to push ourselves and write you a NEW CHRISTMAS CAROL EVERY DAY*! I know. I know! We'll write and record them pretty fast, cause it's a busy time of year, so they won't be polished gems of seasonal perfection. But we'll do each with love. Always with love.

So. Today, we humbly presented you the first of these carols. Given the newness of the season, we decided to open with a humble, somber(ish), advent carol. You know how those are always kind of sad? Yeah. I'll call it...

Hush, winter time

*There is a possibility that we might, on some days, write new versions of old carols too.

Help, help. I want to hear the carol, but I can't figure out the link.
Great idea though; very exciting. Tomorrow Erin gets her puppy, maybe the next carol could mention animals as a nod to Margene.

into your browser, does it not take you anywhere?...
