Peace On Earth/Little Drummer Boy - Bing Crosby and David Bowie



When this came out, it was a melding of the generations. Bing Crosby represented the traditional, having had the most popular Christmas Song ever recorded (White Christmas) and David Bowie was creating a whole new style of music. Somehow they came together and created this piece of musical genius. The best example of 2 point Christmas Counterpoint. Each musical line stands on its own with beauty and grace, but together, the effect is genius.
