24 Songs of Xmas / Single Review: Yächtley Crëw – It’s Christmas Time
This band calls themselves Yächtley Crëw (see what they did there?) and they claim to be "Titans of Soft Rock" and from the evidence of this song, I'm not going to argue!

Bonus song of Xmas / Classic Cover: Floor Jansen – “Let It Go (live)”
Yeah, OK, this one came out last year, but we didn't cover it then and it's a belter. The cover itself is superb, but the live version showcases how damn good Floor Jansen's voice really is. The live version appears to be YouTube-only so I'll hav
