Norwegian indie-pop group Kid Astray are already doused in festive spirit, and have provided us with a cover of Nat King Cole's "The Christmas Song".
Their rendition scrapes away all instrumentation, instead doing the classic totally a cappella. Speaking about the cover, Kid Astray said:
"It's such a beautiful song and we've always wanted to do something acapella. So, Benjamin arranged this barbershop version of The Christmas Song and a few weeks ago we put on our Christmas sweaters and recorded it."
Grab some Christmas pud and feast your ears on this yuletide ditty.
