The Season's Upon Us, by the Dropkick Murphys is a humorous Celtic Punk Rock song. This humorous celtic song is about a dysfunctional family celebrating the holidays. The lyrics are PG-13 so performance is recommended for College audiences or mature audiences. Performance by or for children is not recommended.Here arranged with a tongue in cheek sweet 3/4 choral intro later progressing into a 6/8 with angst and harmony There are humorous solos and plenty of room for dramatics. The song was performed by The Dropkick Murphys in the key of C. The arrnger chose G to allow 4 part harmony. Performance Suggestions: With a capable choir this could/should be performed a capella with interludes by a button accordion. A melodica, or flute/pennywhistle could be substituted for the accordion, or a piano/synth. On the recording there are also guitars and bodhráns - an Irish hand-drum. Guitar chords are included in the arrangement. A suggestion is to watch the original Dropkick Murphy's video on Youtube to catch the spirit of the song.
