"Gabriel's Message"



Witness the holiday hat trick – a favoured video by a favoured singer of a favoured Christmas carol. This was the best track on the first “Very Special Christmas” compilation back in 1987 and I’ve been looping it for a while so thought I’d share.
 
Sting reprised it for his album, If On A Winter’s Night, but this remains my favourite version. The video is typical of him as well, all Goth and broody and gorgeous.
 
Enjoy.

  1. It was so great to watch the "If on a Winter's Night" DVD last night! Perfect kick off to Christmas vacation. So glad that I finally came around to understanding this man's genius. Sting is a God!

    1. Alas, he's not as broody and gorgeous anymore, but he does remain an deity - and I agree: his Winter's Night concert is the perfect way to start a Christmas holiday!
