Day Five: I Saw Three Ships, (mashup) by Lindsey Stirling
My fifth choice for Jeff's 12 Days of Christmas challenge is a fun one. The first I heard of I Saw Three Ships was the version sung by Sting. I was immediately captivated by the melody, but never really thought about looking for it for my own playlist.
This year, though, I needed to freshen up to share with y'all, so I was browsing Xmas tracks on AZ Music and spotted Lindsey Stirling's rendition of I Saw Three Ships. Whee! I love how, rather than repeating the basic melodic phrase over and over, she blended it seamlessly with another one of my favorite melodies: God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen! That was a delightful surprise. It's a short, fast-paced, cheerful arrangement, with only a touch of the ominous dubstep drama that often permeates her work.
Enjoy
