I am a 63 year old woman who now has this as her all time favourite Christmas song. Brilliant.
I wish you could be my aunt, that rocks x)
Great to hear this!
💖💖💖💖💖💖
I think Greg and the lads aren't far from you, don't worry we all love to rock!
Bless your heart... I'll be 63 and jam to this for Christmas
This is what Christian rock wishes it could be.
No Wish Just One of Many
@automated slayer 1789 Herp derp! No kidding! And there's not a Christian band out there that could do it as well as Bad Religion did.
They lack the contempt to pull it off.
Actually the explanation is much simpler... There is no Christian punk :p

Supposedly, 20% of the proceeds from the Christmas Songs album are going to SNAP (Survivors Network of those Abused by Priests) Worthy cause. Great songs too!
Oh, snap!
Funny, i only drink trapists beers brandq who gave all of their benefits to social programs *tips fedora*
This comes across as a legitimate (if sarcastic) Bad Religion song. It is so worthy of foot-tapping that I would put it in their top 20. The guitars and vocals are perfect.
I have been a Bad Religion fan since 1984 and I approve
O come, O come, Emmanuel
And ransom captive Israel
That mourns in lonely exile here
Until the Son of God appear
Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel
Shall come to thee, O Israel.
O come, Thou Rod of Jesse, free
Thine own from Satan's tyranny
From depths of Hell Thy people save
And give them victory o'er the grave
Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel
Shall come to thee, O Israel.
O come, O come, Thou Lord of might,
Who to Thy tribes, on Sinai's height,
In ancient times did'st give the Law,
In cloud, and majesty and awe.
Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel
Shall come to thee, O Israel.
God uses the most unlikely instruments to carry out His work of salvation. I've always loved Bad Religion for their music, especially the lyrics. But this album stroke me in a completely new way. When I first heard it, I felt I was facing something really big and true. This experience made me open my heart to the power and grace of God in my life. Today I can see that my life has a meaning. There's a reason for me to wake up every day, and this reason is Christ. Thank you, Bad Religion, for this gift. May it help lead many other souls to God, especially the band members. I will remember to pray for you always. May God bless you 🙏
I love this testimony. I was an ex punk rocker who has mostly avoided Bad Religion since becoming a Christian a few years back. Just stumbled across this this morning and am glad it’s bringing people to Christ. Unlikely vessels indeed
God bless you both ☦️
My favorite of Christmas Songs
Not to take anything away from the rest of the album, as it's all very good, but this is by far the best song on this album, IMO
Was positive this was gonna be some smart criticism satire based on classic Christmas songs, but it's a 100% original and serious cover? Very good, I'll have to bust this back out when December comes around
alex fletcher Now is the time Bruh ;)
It is time. Rise!
Thou shall come again.
It's funny how I praise God to Bad Religion while listening to this album. I love it. It's been constantly my favorite Christmas album since it's release.
You don't have to believe to respect good music. You might say Bad Religion put this album out in good faith. :P
God doesn't listen to sinners.
Way surprised how respectful and well done this is done.
Fez melhor que cantores gospel no Brasil.....uma banda fenomenal que fez parte da minha época na adolescência! Bad religion um banda boa de se escuta.
I just need it! Hugs from Brazil, guys!
Like a good wine, they get better with age.
All religions are so bad, of course. Personal faith in Jesus does not harm anyone. I used to be an atheist for 15 years and have been born again Lutheran Christian almost 19 years. The lyrics of Bad Religion are very smart (I have all the albums ("Suffer" is the best one though) ; even "Into The Unknown") and this new stuff is also awesome. God bless you all in Jesus´ name!
I am into books becuase of your lyrics, Mr. Brett! Greetings from Mexico. You were always my hero, and still are! OK, you and William Faulkner!
Bad Religion rocks this song. I'm surprised they are singing a Christmas song though. Anyways, I love it. Good job Bad Religion.
TheHenok30 did you think because they are a punk group that something serious couldn't come?
Teri Reeves - no. I made that remark b/c the name of their band is "bad religion," which is their statement that Christianity is a bad religion. That message is also portrayed on Bad Religons t-shirts, album covers etc by their logo of a cross slashed out with a circle around it. Now Bad Religion is singing Christian carols which puts out a different message than they had put out. It seems contradictory. Do they no longer see Christianity as a bad religion?
I don't know why they did covers of these songs, but I think it's because they just happened to like seasonal holiday songs and they wanted to use it as creative inspiration for money
IceCoLDMK - Perhaps, but I think it's also possible that the band members secretly have some belief in the Bible & hence decided to sing Christmas songs for charity. Bad Religion may have been pissed off at Christianity b/c of all the hypocrisy, contradictions & oppression. Thus their band name would be a statement of that.
I am also a little confused but very happy about it lol. Maybe they just love the Christmas season and music and wanted to add a slight punk twist to the tone.
A bit surprised Bad Religion is making a religious album, but hey this seems pretty good! True North was pretty great as well, they keep getting better with age.
You and Greg man. Best songwriters there are and ever will be in my eyes.
this is my second favorite nex Christams song, thnaks everyone, involve in that
Bad Religion always making a good job every year !
Bad Religion has been "Bad" since 79 and will continue to live its epic legacy for a long time. so Bad stays
Bad Religion does discuss things other than religion. this is why a believer could still listen to them. At the same time, one who believes in a higher being or a god does not have to follow any established religious organization and can understand and accept their stance on religion. Bad Religion seems to have more of a stance on religion and using it as a crutch, rather than simply believing in a god. Celebrate holidays to take time off and spend it with your family and loved ones.
Regarding non-believers of all stripes and holiday or other devotional tunes: You don't have to be religious to enjoy devotional music, to paraphrase Richard Dawkins, who then went on to say something about liking Handel's Messiah, simply because it's a beautiful piece of music.
This is one of the songs to be examined in my singing exam...this version boosts my confidence :D
It is so funny to hear these words out of Greg's mouth. As a christian Bad Religion Fan (yes, that is possible) I can finally agree 100% to the lyrics. ;)
This song is my favourite of that album.
Btw, Immanu'El is hebrew and means "GOD is with us"
I'm Christian as well and I've been listening to BR since high school when my friend introduced me to them =)
MichailahGMX10831 I don't know where you got this from, but Judaism is in no way worship of saturn! While all cultures worshipped many gods, the descendents of Avraham worshipped only one GOD, which is called JHVH, but as they were not allowed to say this name, they used other names like EL, Elohim, HaShem, etc.
It is forbidden for any observant jew, to worship anything else, than the true and only GOD (and a planet is surely no god). I think you shouldn't make false statements like that.
But I agree that this is a great album. ;)
MichailahGMX10831 Oh, and the translation is Immanu=with us, El=God
MichailahGMX10831 Proverbs 18,2+6 -I have nothing more to say ;)
Non denominational REAL Christian (not strict with it though) and huge bad religion fan as well.. In there own words themselves (even though i always knew this) "Bad Religion is in no way antichrist. Christ was probably the most progressive liberal in history, we just detest RELIGION" that's from there concert dvd....AS DO I... so i give a big fuck yeah to that one. Go spirituality, FUCK RELIGION! lol anyways This version is amazing my fav off of this album😎
I concure.
Mr Brett (Greg is amazing as well, but Brett's songs have always done more for me) is a true inspiration.
Brett's music has gotten me off the brink of hanging myself, through insane amounts of bullshit, made me come to terms with the addictions and issues of family members and given me an introspective on life that I'm just plain thankful to have recieved.
You're the shit Mr. Brett, no, not just the shit, the ONLY SHIT.
Not sure if thats Brett or not lol, but this song is awesome, cant stop listening, cant wait 6 more days.
Almost 35 years of career and you guys keep getting better and better!
Can't wait to see you again in Argentina in February :)
Man, they really "nailed" this Christmas classic...
Bad Religion, 30 years, february, Argentina. It's comming my friends !!! Thank's for your music.
Thank whatever there is for Bad Religion. They are a bright becon of reason in an effed up world of princes and princesses.
Mr. Brett, come join us in Brazil in 2014! We all wanted to see you with Bad Religion! And oh... hi! :)
Pure Bad Religion Brilliance.
wow that sounds good. Bad Religion are better now then ever.
My favorite from the album.
It's not a geographical place and it hovers over our prophetic imagination - a strong version of that drum spirit of accountability expressed in this song.
Thanks for sharing.
Oui.
♪♫O come O come BAD RELIGION, I'm gonna freakout listening to all this Christmas Songs in my stereo so loud!!♪♫
I hope I could go to BR show in Santiago, Chile this February!!! :D
I hated the idea of a Bad Religion christmas album at first, but now I kind of dig it.
i didn't know what to expect but now listening to it and i;m really psyched! Merry Christmas! ...And God bless us! Everyone! :p
praise him!
AMEN!!!!!
The Horse approves! This will be the soundtrack to our Christmas!
Amazing song
Is it wrong that as an atheist I love this song?
No. I'm a believer who believes that we can't keep the cool shit to ourselves. Enjoy!
I mostly enjoy it because an atheist is singing it.
Nate Monahan Bingo
Nate Monahan Odd reason to like a song.
Ashraf Farid It's only a story. I like the fact that they play this song to tell a story. Although it is a religious story, it shows that they can play this song and tell the story without believing in the bs of it. Of course this is only my opinion and you'd have to ask the band themselves.
I just love how irony is lost on some people. And I love Bad Religion as well. :D
Thank you bad religion! The best thing ever happen in my life!!
Too good.
God bless Bad Religion!
HI MR. BRETT Waiting for you to Stream the Album, I can't wait anymore!! Wish I could Hang Out with you one day @ EPITAPH Records, the reason I got into Punk was because of Bad Religion!! Bad Religion brought WISDOM to the whole Punk Scene, Mr. Brett thanks For everything you are true inspiration to me!!
They say Christmas in July... so be it... rejoice with Voice!!!💋🥁🎵🎧

My thoughts EXACTLY! I thought it was gonna be some mellow acoustic tunes or something(wich I still would have listened theshitoutof) BUT THIS IS AWESOME! Best band in the world, simple as that
Love that beginning solo
Soooooooooooooo good.
Absolutely masterpiece Thank you guys !
This is vintage 90s BR sound wise. I love it.

For all of us with the with the bootlegged Xmas tracks DLed from... here and there, this is a -- wait for it... godsend!
When I was a good Catholic boy, this was one of my favourite Christmas songs to sing! lol.
Man this song is BAD-ASS!!!
Brilliant! A must have album for Xmas BBQs.
Thanks for all the great songs. Whether I always agree or not it always gets me thinking.
I have no problem with this... Been a fan of em since 90's.
Fucking love it... It's shit like this that A) keeps me listening to punk and B) reminds me why BR will always be my favourite band! 30 years plus and stronger than ever! That's true fucking punk rock for ya!!!
nothing makes my day more than new music from BR, especially less than one year since their last record!
Love the new album, preordered the vinyl package and am super excited. This is the best track!
I'm gonna propose to the choir to sing this next Christmas' eve. I'm sure Jesus is going to love it :D
Bad Religion are always the best!
man this is sounding better than most tracks on True North! Perfectly Mixed!!!
Greatest cover of Christmas BR has done so far!!!
So last night at a Danzig concert I was excited for Halloween... now I'm in the Christmas spirit too. Can't wait for Rancid's Thanksgiving album!
there are black metal bands that might try all their lives and never write lyrics as hard as verse two.
Agreed.
Well... that fucking kicked ass!
Not since Christmas With The Vandals has there been such an amazing Punk Rock Christmas album. O-Come-All-Ye-Irony.
O come, O come, Emmanuel
And ransom captive Israel
That mourns in lonely exile here
Until the Son of God appear
Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel
Shall come to thee, O Israel
O come, Thou Rod of Jesse, free
Thine own from Satan's tyranny
From depths of Hell Thy people save
And give them victory o'er the grave
Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel
Shall come to thee, O Israel
O come, O come, Thou Lord of might
Who to…
It's Amazing. This is one my favorite songs seriously and Bad Religion just made the absolute best version of it ever. Kinda funny considering hey?
I bought this album yesterday, it fucking rules
This is great ... better and better every album
it's like.. you guys are the only people who can make a christmas song that doesn't blow balls. AND you guys are the only people who can make a christmas song listenable outside of the 'season'
Anyone thinking this could have come off "Against the Grain"? Hilarious and brilliant.
Yessiree, and it was a lot of fun too.
woah this is waaaaay better than what I thought this album was going to be! Cant wait to hear the rest!
Love it. Great version. Love theses guys.
I had never realized how MËTÄL the lyrics to this song are. You've got your tyranny of Satan, you've got hell and graves and all kinda shit.
This sounds wicked. Good job, boys.
BLESS YOU SINNERS!!!!! The Beatles OF PUNK!!!!
Badassest Chrismas carol ever re-made!
