Multi-platinum recording artist Clay Aiken is back with a stunning new version of the Bing Crosby classic "Do You Hear What I Hear?," the first single from his highly anticipated Christmas album Christmas Bells are Ringing, set to be released on November 22nd. Aiken's unique interpretation infuses the classic carol with his signature vocal warmth and emotional depth making it a song for our times. Written in 1962 by Noël Regney and Gloria Shayne as a plea for peace during the Cuban Missile Crisis, "Do You Hear What I Hear?" is timeless in its message, yet even more resonant today. Aiken reflects, "The whole American political climate over the past few years hasn't really given us much in the way of hope or optimism. As much as I wanted to believe I might be able to make some positive change in that world, I've realized that music often does a better job of that." Produced by Grammy Award-winning producer Ron Fair, "Do You Hear What I Hear?" is the first release from Aiken's first studio album in over a decade, following a hiatus from music which found Aiken running for Congressional office in North Carolina, and raising his now teenage son. The album, Christmas Bells are Ringing, marks a return to the holiday music that solidified Aiken's place as a household name in 2004, when his debut holiday album Merry Christmas With Love broke records, selling nearly 300,000 copies in its first week. That album went platinum, becoming the best-selling holiday album of 2004 and earning Aiken three Billboard Music Awards.The new record boasts fresh takes on holiday staples like Nat King Cole's "Caroling, Caroling" and Paul McCartney's "Wonderful Christmastime", as well as a lush reinvention of "Merry Christmas, Darling" by the Carpenters (one of Clay's musical inspirations) and a show-stopping rendition of "Pure Imagination" which reimagines the Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory classic as a fitting soundtrack for the holiday season.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-unplugged-totally-uncut--994165/support.

We discuss what he looks like in What The Dickens.Then Bob is back with Spread a Smile of Joy and he's suggesting a lovely concept called Santa's Kindness Ornament and Journal from Demdaco.Here's a link:https://www.demdaco.com/santas-kindness-ornament-journal/This episode's version of A Christmas Carol is 1200 Ghosts.  It's a YouTube mash up that takes clips from 400 versions of A Christmas Carol and puts them together to tell the story.  It's definitely worth a watch:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UF_rKE3nIoIGet in touch:Email: totalchristmas@gmail.comWebsite: totalchristmaspodcast.comMerry Christmas!

Our Boxing Day '22 show fills in for VI Kal. Ianiuarius. KITM gave the staff the whole day off for Christmas this year, allowing us to be here all the earlier next morning for Boxing Day! The first rule of Boxing Day is you do not sing Boxing Day carols. Instead, David Waldman and Greg Dworkin of course croon only the best Christmas songs written by Jewish men, (All of them.) including that anti-nuclear annihilation ditty, “Do You Hear What I Hear?”, and the Ukrainian export, “Carol of the Bells”.  It's also Monday, so Greg's here to review with us all of the punditry that he has heard and seen recently. Boxing Day is big in the UK, primarily with those not freezing or starving to death. In a decade or so, survivors might look back at Brexit and appreciate it more. Over our holiday weekend, 13 people died in a blizzard in Buffalo, New York. People with a sense of humor clearly not burdened by “wokeness” vandalized more power substations and trafficked migrants to the sidewalk outside Vice President Kamala Harris' residence. Donald Trump said some Donald Trump things. Elon Musk will be remembered in the same breath as the Mona Lisa, if she was a tech bro corporate bossist troll. Why tweet when you can tusk or toot or something? The great detectives in the January 6 committee deduced the culprit, but now righting his wrongdoings are our responsibility. Dominion Voting Systems should sue Trump for defamation, but would it be worth it? Stefanie Lambert might have defamed more people for Trump than any other lawyer. TFG does not look like a shoe in for the Republican 2024 primary.  Neither does Ron DeSantis. Volodymyr Zelensky inspired with his Christmas message. Useful idiots over here would rather give up Christmas than embrace Zelensky.

Join us for a special Christmas Eve message with Pastor Adam as he draws inspiration from the timeless Christmas carol, "Do You Hear What I Hear?" In a world filled with noise and distractions, Pastor Adam reflects on the significance of focusing on God's word. He emphasizes that today, we have the privilege of hearing God's voice through His word. Tune in and get ready for a message that will challenge your expectations around hearing the voice of God.

Pastor Jordan Easley continues the new "Do You Hear What I Hear?" Message Series.

In this episode, I offer some of my piano arrangements for your use in any gathering where you might want some background music. A bit about my style of arrangements: I very much like dissonant sounds. Dissonance refers to a lack of harmony. Dissonant music sometimes makes people feel a bit uneasy. Because of this feeling, dissonant music is often used to create tension in films. In the last 10 years or so, I have used dissonance in many of my arrangements because of the unique sound. Not everyone will be a fan of this music, but it is what I am currently working on and I thought I would share it.This album contains:The Christmas Song - pianoDo You Hear What I Hear - pianoAll Alone Am I - pianoI'll Be Home For Christmas - pianoTheme from Knots Landing TV Show - piano, strings and percussionSilent Night - pianoEmpty Chairs At Empty Tables (from Les Miserables) - pianoTheme from Seattle TV Show - piano and stringsFrosty The Snowman - pianoI hope you enjoy the album. Happy Holidays !~Joey
