      Agreed. I thought most of them worked fairly well, but the middle section of Sleigh Ride completely falls apart in minor key. And Holly Jolly felt a little weird to me too, which is why it’s last haha. Glad you liked it Rick, thanks for watching!

  • @gradypatterson1948
    @gradypatterson1948 3 ปีที่แล้ว +16

    Fun stuff, Corey! Several songs (notably "Frosty" and "Santa Claus Is Comin' to Town") get a really "Russian" sound - almost need a troupe dancing the Barynya! Feliz Navidad, on the other hand, actually sounds better than the original, IMO - it loses the cheesy aspect of the standard major-key version, while still sounding happy - as if it were more sincere!
    For next year, perhaps, try taking Christmas songs that are in minor keys ("We Three Kings" and "Oh, Come! Oh, Come, Emmanual" pop to mind) and play them in Augmented! :-)

    • @CoreyLennox
      @CoreyLennox  3 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      Totally agree, as soon as you combine minor key with a more "uptempo" sound things get really Russian really quick 😂
      And great idea on doing something with the carols that are already in minor key for next year! I think I'll try them in major 'cause doing augmented might be a little too painful lol!

    2:10 Santa Claus is coming to town, but something is off. The joyful spirit seems to have disappeared, and been replaced with a feeling of fear. You know something is wrong, and that Santa Claus isn’t coming to give gifts. When he enters down that chimney on Christmas Eve, not too far away, you have a feeling that you should be ready for an incoming danger, one like nothing you’ve ever heard of before.

    PEAK. Let me tell you how much I've come to love your video since I saw it. There are 3,000 inches of skin in millimeter-thin layers that encase my complex. If the word "PEAK" was engraved on each quecto-Planck-length of those several thousand square inches, it would not equal one one-millinillionth of the PEAK you just cooked at this quecto-instant. PEAK. PEAK.

    People always talk about "Here sees you when you're sleeping" being kinda creepy...
    But imagine a Christmas horror movie with _Here Comes Santa Claus_ : "Hang your stockings and say your prayers 'cause Santa Claus comes tonight!" would also work as a creepy villain line in this context.
