Monday morning brainfreeze made me forget a couple of other excellent Advent songs. Here’s a good version of O Come O Come Emmanuel by Sixpence None the Richer:
And here’s the best version I could find of Come, Thou Long Expected Jesus. Almost all the others were to the WRONG TUNE. Again.

The Vicar's Wife 
Now I’ve heard it, I can’t think of the other tune :doh:
The worship leader at our church began strumming a few chords as the beginning of a song yesterday, and it was almost exactly like Sixpence None the Richer’s ‘Kiss Me’. I sat there wide-eyed for about thirty seconds before he began the song, imagining the opening words, “Kiss me out of the bearded barley…” It was disappointing when he didn’t because the song they sang instead was rather nondescript. I spent the next several minutes wondering how the song ‘Kiss Me’ could be legitimately worked into a service…
