To think that Carols from King's should have karaoke style subtitles?

Or is that a bit too Channel 4?

I'm having to sing along with all the rude versions instead. That's more fun.

No, no, no!

Put the subtitles on! :)

Umm. Just read your OP properly! Xmas Wink

I am feeling all proud-I've just seen a boy I used to teach in the choir! I'd forgotten he went to Cambridge as a choral scholar.

Just threatened to sing the descant of Hark the Herald Angels Sing unless Dh makes me a cup of tea, and I don't need subtitles.

TotallyAddictedToLurking · 24/12/2013 19:43

I just the exact same thing to MIL. I want to sing along!

RubberBaubles · 24/12/2013 20:02

Just put the subtitles on

This is one of those times where you know the first verse then fill in with humming and la la etc.

I am always a bit chicken to sing the descant to Hark the Herald. That boy is HIGH! I always do Oh come all Ye Faithful, though (to DDs shame). Off to midnight service later.

Carols from Kings IS Christmas for me.
Love it

MrsDeanAmbrose · 24/12/2013 21:26

Hark the Herald is one of the few descants I remember. I had to explain what a descant was to DH last night as he thought it was just people showing off. He didn't believe it was an actual written down tune.

You can download the order of service from the Kings College website! All the lyrics are in there.

We have karaoke style subtitles on almost everything we watch as DP is half deaf. It drives my DM nuts when we go to her house and he puts them on as she doesn't know how to switch them off again.

Carols F K is great BUT....wouldnt it better without the heavey drowning organ? Its such a cumbersome sound. Its not used anywhere else....why cant we have better accompianment to the music...
