One of my favorite rocking songs for Christmas is Christmas/Sarajevo 12/24 from the album Christmas Eve and Other Stories by the Trans-Siberian Orchestra.
The Trans-Siberian Orchestra is a progressive rock band that uses orchestral instruments and rock band instruments to create a very unique sound. A lot of what they create is called rock opera. Christmas Eve and Other Stories was the first album the group released. Since then they have released four more albums including the more recent Beethoven's Last Night and Night Castle. They have sold over 7 million albums!
Paul O'Neill is the creator of the group. "I've always believed that music has the power to transport and transform," O'Neill says. "The arts have incredible power, and with that comes incredible responsibility. Someone once said that if you want to change the world, don't become a politician -- write a book, write a great song. I believe in that, and that's what Trans-Siberian Orchestra is about."
You can watch Christmas/Sarajevo 12/24 below.
I am sure you are decorating your house for Christmas. How about this idea featuring Trans-Siberian Orchestra music?
