For many years, While Shepherds Watched Their Flocks By Night was the only text that could be set to music for #Christmas in the Church of England, which is why there are so many tunes for it #ChristmasCarol #MerryChristmas 🐑 🐏 🐑

Christmas carol - An under discussed baddie is surely Fred. He’s all “come over to mine uncle”, but then actually is going round and taking the piss out of him behind his back. The true evil of the story. #Christmas #ChristmasCarol #Dickens

There's also a version of "A Christmas Carol" with Patrick Stewart. It's from 1999, which I guess makes it a turn of the century TV film.
Patrick Stewart did "A Christmas Carol" as a one man show on Broadway, and in London, and the TV film was made following that run.

We often take Christmas carols at face value. But at least one holiday favorite, “Do You Hear What I Hear,” contains more than what first meets the ear.

#EarwormOfTheDay finally #IWokeUpLikeThis with some #Christmas music - this somewhat extra but wonderful take on 'Do You Hear What I Hear' by Elphaba/Elsa herself, Idina Menzel:
The song dates from 1962, a yearning hope for #peace following the #CubanMissileCrisis.

Scrooge never painted out Old Marley’s name. There it stood, years afterwards, above the warehouse door: Scrooge and Marley. The firm was known as Scrooge and Marley. Sometimes people new to the business called Scrooge Scrooge, and sometimes Marley, but he answered to both names. It was all the same to him.

You will therefore permit me to repeat, emphatically, that Marley was as dead as a door-nail.

#todayilearned that when #Dickens has Scrooge making "a perfect Laocoön of himself with his stockings" at the end of #ChristmasCarol he was referring to a mythical Trojan priest who was attacked by snakes

Listening to A Christmas Carol on the bus.
I remember Ian McMillan, possibly, on telly, saying you could 'pick any page' of Jane Austen and there would be something good.
It feels like every other line of #ChristmasCarol has something brilliant
