I'm not sure. I stole it from my son's FB post. I'll see what I can find out.I was a music major in college and never encountered this song. How old is it?
Still looking for the origin date.
"A parody of "The Christmas Song" by Bob Wells and Mel Torme. Original parody lyrics by David Rakowski. Additional lyrics and vocal performance by Dave Swenson. Message me for a pdf of the leadsheet. FYI, the notation is in C major, but I transposed the accompaniment track to Bb to better suit my vocal range."
That explains it. Well after my time. Like Elf on a Shelf. Where the hell did that come from?Earliest I've found is a YouTube video from 2014.
My head canon is that Elf on the Shelf is a government psy-op to get children more comfortable with a lifetime of surveillance.That explains it. Well after my time. Like Elf on a Shelf. Where the hell did that come from?
