- 12 Days of Christmas
U.S. Navy Band
Sideboys
Performed live in 2013 at DAR Constitution Hall, Washington, D.C.
This version of "12 Days of Christmas" was arranged by Richard Gregory. Gregory first started working on the arrangement while in the Navy in the 1950s. He finalized it in the 1960s when he founded a student a cappella group called the Caterwaulers at the Williston Northampton School in Easthampton, Mass. (information from 2008 interview of Gregory by author Mickey Rapkin)
I watch this every year and I never grow tired of it. This is a classic. This has become a Christmas tradition.
I hear you on that! *raises glass* TO YOU AND YOURS - AND MAY THE NEW YEAR BLESS YOU!
My first time, but it won't be the last!
Me too abd it's 2024
Me too
3rd time watching .
"Are you hurt!?"😧
"Yes-!" 🤕
"...I don't care get up!" 😭💀
That part made me die so bad🤣
That's how CHIEFS do it!
“Three fat hens and a duck- let’s just get out of here.” 😂 Oh my goodness, I loved this. I laughed so much, and they sounded amazing! The timing of it all was perfect!
That line was a true killer! 🤣
So annoying. If your going to sing stop fucking about and get on with it
@@leonieladner8631 get a life! all in fun
They are so funny! Yes, this must have been difficult to get it all right.
@Leonie Ladner. Get a sense of humor! Otherwise, you really don't have to listen. There are options!
Thanks Psalm 105&106 🎄😊 Praying 🎄 😊 🙏 😊😊 Praise God 🎄 😊 😊 Merry Christmas! & Happy New Year! 🎉🎉😊😊
7 years later and I will watch it for ever and ever. This was so funny. Amazing voices.
Such talent. It’s not easy doing something like this and they make it look so easy. Good job Navy band. Love it
I saw this years ago, and still cracks me up every year!
My kids discovered this in 2020.. and it is now a favorite of theirs.. we watch several times a year and during christmas many more
7 years later and I watch it every Christmas. This was so funny. Amazing voices.
Merry Christmas to all the men and women serving here and overseas to protect us. May God Bless all of you and bring you back home safe.
You guys crack me up!! Definitely Navy style. Thank you all for serving our country.
What an amazing performance ! This one must have been hard to get right, so many details, and i am sure every detail was under control ! Thank you and Go! Navy !
My other half he is a Proud Navy Veteran! I am a proud Army Veteran also Proud Army! Thank you for your service
The best performance that makes me laugh during Christmas time. These guys are wonderful and so talented God bless them all.
Oh lovely. Listening on this sunday just 3 days before christmas and sharing with my loved ones. Greetings from Sri Lanka. God bless all who are listening.
Beautiful! These guys are so awesome! I’m so happy all of this old stuff is re-emerging on TH-cam. I would have never found these awesome guys! Go Navy!
My dad was a Navy man! Thanks to him and all you for your service!
Thank you so much for sharing this video! Great to know that they, apparently, managed to reconnect other than being on Hogan's Heroes! I never knew that Werner Klemperer and John Banner could sing. My Biological Father was a German Jew. This is the first time I've ever heard Silent Night sung in German. Beautiful rendition!
They have wonderful voices, this arrangement is gold and I love how confused they look through the all thing it makes it even better! New favorite christmas Carol!
They are a wonderful ban😊
The best part about this is that they are actually really good.
@Caleb Register
!!! THE. UNITED. STATES. NAVY. BAND. !!! REALLY. GOOD. FANTASTIC..!!!
Yeah! You can say that again!
They are behaving but they are singing beautifully.
I have heard them sing before. There is also other groups.
OH MY GOODNESS.....AMAZING PERFORMANCE!!! I can just imagine how hard it was to get this down!!! You all are AWESOME!! GOD BLESS!!! Just love you guys!!
God bless our Men and Women in the Armed Forces!!!
This is a truly naval operation. Great job, BZ!
GO NAVY!
“ARE YOU HURT?!”
“YES”
“Eh I don’t care get up”
Ahhhh pure genius
This is the greatest performance in the history of performances
Lying undder the branches glasses off, The colors , skewed, became one of my Mothers. Favorite
Can't watch this with a straight face this is the best Christmas mix up ever😂🤣😗😭
Yep!
The real question is how did they perform this with a straight face🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
With the world struggling this year, this is exactly what we need to help put a smile on our faces & lift us up a little bit. Great singing & brilliant comedy, thank you!!
I m from India and really amazed by this impressive performance of US Navy,merry Christmas everyone
It’s cool how they fit all of those Christmas songs together.
Fantastic performance from you guys. Love Adams expressions. Lost count of how many times I've watched this and all your others. Love from Spain
"Are you hurt?"
"Yes!"
"I don't care, get up."
I thought that was hilarious!
Why yes, they did say that... Congrats...
The military in a nutshell....
Sounds like a navy chief I was a boatswains mate in the Navy
VirgoGoddess90 I came here to look for this comment lmao.
It's 2021 and this still is my go-to Christmas song when I want great harmony and a big smile!!
"I've got some toilet paper in my pocket."
"Is it clean?"
"Sort of." 😅😅
Haha
An impromptual acapella one scene pranky drama : this is what I felt while watching.
Pranky but very musical and natural and I was given a fun-filled morning wakeup.
Thank you.
🌹🙏👍🙏👏🙏❣
It’s good that the navy has a sense of humor.
These four guys are really good 🎶🇺🇸
Seriously...only the discipline and dedication of the members of our armed forces could pull this off. Bravo.
Actually, this has been done by Straight No Chaser in an almost identical manner going back to the 1990s.
This isn't even their song, it's a Straight No Chaser song that they're covering, as have countless other groups. Musical groups have discipline and dedication too, you know.
@@SingingSpock They're covering Richard Gregory, not SNC. The only exception is the use of "I Have a Little Dreidel", which IS a part only in SNC's version of 12 Days.
Only the discipline and dedication of truly great professional musicians and signers.
@@SingingSpock
This arrangement has been around since the 1960s. So it doesn't belong to straight no chasers ether.
GREAT JOB
GOD BLESS ALL
THANK YOU
FOR YOUR SERVICE
BE SAFE❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
This guys are so good. I can hear and see this song again and again. The four are so talented and nice When I´m writing this I know that Senior Chief Adam Tyler is already retired A great pity. He was one of the best and my favourite. We are going to miss you a lot. Stay safe and God bless you
This is hysterical! These men are wildly talented. Great job and thank you for your service.

This is why no other branch likes the navy. This is also why everyone likes the navy band.
What? I'm a retired Marine Corps Officer who just spent 20 years working as a GS-13/14 with the Navy. There are many of us who love the Navy! Do you realize the Marine Corps Band is known as the President's Own?
