Watch: These Lads Have Put an Irish Twist on Classic Christmas Tunes

A modern Irish twist on our favourite tunes!

Una Kavanagh

An Irish slant on Christmas classics? Yes please! If you’re sick of hearing out-of-date lyrics in Christmas tunes, these lads are here to help.

The RaboDirect Straight Singing Xmas Choir, also known as comedy group Foil, Arms & Hog, have given a modern twist to some of our favourite Christmas tunes and they’re wonderfully Irish.

From Jingle Bells to Deck the Halls, it’s quite funny!

“It’s about time the classic carols received a contemporary makeover. Hark? Yule? Come ye?… Who speaks like that?” they write.

“We’ve taken our reputation for straight talk, dressed it in jumpers and set it to a three-part harmony. Enjoy the RaboDirect Straight Singing Christmas Choir.”
