CHRISTMAS COUNTDOWN Day 2: Christmas Time (Is Here Again) - The Beatles

SONG: Christmas Time (Is Here Again)
ARTIST: The Beatles
ALBUM: Free As A Bird single, limited edition vinyls, bootlegs
RELEASED: 1967
AVAILABILITY: Uh... low.



As if The Beatles didn't already do everything there is to do as a band, they also recorded about an EP's worth of Christmas material.  By "material" I mean some quirky radio drama stuff and a couple of musical bits.  This here is their only full-fledged "Christmas song", though, but it's a good one.  If a tad repetitive.

Below, you will find a full-length, but lower-quality, recording.  The above edit is the B-side to the "Free As A Bird" single.  (Note that this long version seems to be from a slightly sped-up vinyl.)
