All for Joy Melikes to Sing

OK, we’re going to go over this one last time…

It’s “Colly Birds”, not “Calling Birds”. What IS a “Calling Bird”, anyway?

Go ahead and pronounce it, “in egg-SHELL-cious Dei-Oh”. It’s easier to say, is actually proper, and doesn’t refer to the Minnesota Wild’s Arena Sponsor.

And…

It’s not a song about a bunch of “Merry Gentlemen”, it goes “God Rest Ye Merry, (comma) Gentlemen.” It’s all about the punctuation.

Come on people. We only have ten days left.

Sing with all your heart, but sing correctly.

Sincerely,
The Christmas Carol Curmudgeon
