Blind Guardian - Release X-Mas Single
Blind Guardian has whipped up a special treat for the fans. They have just released their first Christmas single and video, titled "Merry Xmas Everybody". The video was filmed in Kulturfabrik, Krefeld and directed by Dirk Behlau.
Hansi Kürsch explains: "In my opinion, Slade created the ultimate Christmas song with "Merry Xmas Everybody", a timeless, jolly tune with the perfect dose of cheesiness and almost untouchable in its greatness. Usually, it is prohibited in the Kürsch household to play Christmas songs prior to the Advent season, but as it's mid-November now, and I am just out of the studio doing this cover, I guess I'm breaking a tradition. What you are about to hear now, is our attempt at paying tribute to the glam rock Santa Clauses Slade and while the original version is just perfect, its chorus was tailor-made for Blind Guardian as we do understand quite well how to go big. So, why have sausages with potato salad when you can have the Xmas goose? Well, check it out yourselves and Merry Xmas Everybody!"
