What song are you currently listening to?

There's really only 1 song that I could post on Christmas Day 2022 - Shchedryk (translated in English as Bountiful Evening, but known in English as The Little Swallow and even better known by the version titled Carol of the Bells).
Shchedryk is based on a traditional Ukrainian folk chant. The version of Shechdryk itself most often heard today is based on the arrangement by Ukrainian composer Mykola Leontovych. American composer Peter J Wilhousky would later write an English version of the song (actually completely different lyrics). It is this latter version that is known as Carol of the Bells.
Not speaking a word of Ukrainian, I can neither confirm nor deny that the following version features the original lyrics, but nevertheless I hope you enjoy it.
I wish everyone on this site a Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah, Fabulous Festivus, a Kind and Kingly Kwanzaa, etc etc! I especially wish Ukrainians, wherever you are currently living all the best and hope that peace returns to the whole of Ukraine soon and you are able to return to a safe, healthy and happy life once more! Let's hope the swallow's bountiful future will come to us all this coming year!

Thanks for the info, I will have a look!
I already have album reissues and 33CD Box Set, but I'm sure I'm still missing some remixes!
