Splice II : The Christmas Edition!


Recommended Posts

Ok, folks, you seemed to have much fun mangling Jeff's song titles in "Splice", and you made me giggle, laugh out loud and even struck me with profound thought with a few of your entries! But the whole time, I was keeping a secret, which only now can be revealed:

 

I was just warming you guys up to play Christmas Splice! Let me warn you in advance, you are going to crack yourselves up doing this one! :yes

 

Same basic rules. Use two songs. In this case, one well-known Christmas or Holiday song and one Wilco song, spliced together into something new and magical!

 

No changing any words to other tenses or plurals, etc. Use the words ONLY as they actually appear in the song title.

Here's that link to A Sea Black with Ink for most Wilco song titles (you supply the titles from the most recent albums):

And for Holiday song titles, I will provide a fairly extensive list (following hours of extensive research) at the end of this post. Use these titles or any others that are well-known.

Let's get FESTIVE!!! Here are a few to get the ball rolling. :bounce8

 

Frosty the Cold Slope

 

Jingle Metal Drummer

 

Rudolph the Random Name Generator (God that guy is annoying!)

 

and my current personal favorite, 

Here Comes Bull Black Nova

 

:headbonk

 

Ok, herewith those Christmas/holiday song titles I promised:

 

Over the River and Through the Woods

Away in a Manger

Deck the Halls

God Rest Ye Merry, Gentlemen
Good King Wenceslas
Hark the Herald Angels Sing

Joy to the World

The Little Drummer Boy

O Little Town of Bethlehem

We Three Kings of Orient Are

The First Noel

Silent Night

Santa Claus is Coming to Town

Jingle Bells

Frosty the Snowman

White Christmas

Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas

Angels We Have Heard on High

Do You Hear What I Hear?

Up on the Housetop

Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer

O Come All Ye Faithful

All I Want for Christmas is My Two Front Teeth

We Wish You a Merry Christmas

I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus

Ok all, let's get to the Splicing! I plan to choose 5 or 6 favorites...ok maybe up to10....and later we will vote on those and select a winner who will receive a special prize from me. It's something musical.  :guitar You'll enjoy it! (should you win) It is not a signed Fender Strat or anything big so calm down.

One brief request: While we cannot escape politics in our wider world, I ask that you not bring it into this game. Specifically, no puns based on White Christmas, in a racial sense, ok? Tempting though it may be. Thanks.

 

SPLICE AWAY! :banana

The First Noel (At the End of the Century)

Grandma Got Run Over By a Bull Black Nova

Away in a Hotel Arizona

 

Can we put the Wilco song first?

I Am Trying to Break Your Chestnuts Roasting Over an Open Fire

 

Yes! Perfectly fine to put either the Wilco part or the holiday part first.

 

These are great! I knew that Grandma one was coming! :lol

 

Keep them coming! I love all of these so far, and I will probably be singing along incorrectly to carols when I run errands in a little bit. The tunes get a bit confused in the blending...
