"All I Want For Christmas Is You," Chase Holfelder (mudhutdigital)

chaseholfelder.jpgThis has been burning up Facebook lately, with many people marveling and others unmoved. What Chase did here was recast the entire song in a slower tempo and a minor key, which as most Music 101 students know results in a more melancholy mood. A bit of clicking around indicates this is actually Chase's schtick, as he has a whole album of popular songs recast this way. Last year he did "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas" this way, and for 2015 Mariah Carey gets the treatment. My take? An imaginative arrangement, though making it the hook for your entire musical career probably won't take you far. Check it out for yourself.
