Virtual Christmas Caroling: A Cellar video collection

Turn on your camera and start singing. Get it up on Youtube before you chicken out. Post it. Do it now. Extra credit for wearing scarves, mittens hats, hoding candles, sipping hot chocolate. extra extra credit for standing outside in the cold while you film it.

its an effect from the editing software called 'old film'. it has a little line that shoots thru it and graininess too, but its hard to see that in that small a window.

I got tired of trying to make a cool video (I did try, honest - I may submit my failures as a blooper reel some day) and sang straight to camera.

Adeste Fideles was always one of my favourites when I was in the choir, and the penultimate verse is the one which has stuck in my head because that's where the sopranos sing the descant and we practiced it over and over and over.

I can't sing soprano, so have just bellowed the alto part at you in a foghorn manner.
