I just realized you are unable to post links initially when you have just joined the forum. That’s probably what happened here. Anyway, glad it’s working now!

Snuck another one in.
Fairly easy melody, but in 6/8 time with lots of syncopated rests made it a bit tricky at first.

Very nice @John_E . I see you got the Movavi screen capture app I told you about. Nice job on the video and great bass playing.
But you’re still not wearing your Santa hat!!!

Thanks @PamPurrs
The only Santa hats we have here are over 3 feet tall and they don’t fit in my room with the low ceilings even sitting down!

Geeat cover @John_E… spot on timing and a nice tone. Great editing on your part too:+1:
I’m not a fan of the song as produced, not a fan of John and Yoko, and not a fan of the bass line as originally played or recorded…. Kinda lacking in structure, and needing a more defined groove. But then again, it’s suppose to be a Christmas song so whadda I know…
Would be a really cool project song though - just use the choir, an acoustic guitar,…. then create a more melodic bass line. 
Keep on Thumpin’!

Thanks Lanny.
Funny, I thought the bassline was kinda sucky too, but easy so figured what the heck.
When you play it in isolation, it is kinda like a ‘country waltz’ which, well, ain’t no good in general, but with the song it does work.
I did like the timing challenge of it as the rest and note lengths vary slightly and I thought at least I would learn something in the timing of the tune.
I like the idea of using it as a rewrite project for sure.
I originally downloaded the version without the choir - eeesh - there is a reason no one ever plays that one…
