Twelve days of Din-mas
Posted on December 24 2014 by Adam Cohen
Ah, the holidays. A time where we grab a cup of hot cocoa or Lon Lon milk and sit by a fire (or a gif of one) and sing Christmas carols with our loved ones. Or in my case, play a bunch of Zelda games! But what could I possibly sing while I’m playing Link to the Past or Four Swords? Why a Zelda carol of course! I decided to write a song for all of us to sing this holiday season about our favorite game series! BUT WAIT THERE’S MORE! I thought it’d be cool if we all worked together to create a video (or mp3 depending on submissions) that captured the joy of Din-mas. Here’s how it works:
- Record a video or audio of yourself singing the lyrics posted to the tune of The Twelve Days of Christmas
- Upload that file to us at ZeldaInformerPodcast@gmail.com
If we get enough submissions, we’ll be able to create a video of all of you (and possibly some staffers) singing this awesome Zelda holiday song. Here are the lyrics! (I worked super hard on them, so feel free to tell me how bad they are in your comments)
