Yet another version of jingle bells. Comparing it to the other one I linked, this one seems simpler. The chord stay truer to the original chord sequence.
I'm noticing this more and more though: major seventh chords starting a chorus, with the seventh at the top. The major seventh ring out over what should be more chords.
Lots of ii-V-I sequences. ii-Vs thrown in everywhere, in key and out of key (eg. Bm-E7, Am-D7-G). Tritone substitution so subtle you can hardly tell it's there.
Nothing groundbreaking here, but enough to make me realise that ii-Vs and major seventh chords are going to be pretty important in my reharmonisations.
