OK, so technically, it isn't a holiday tune, but, I do believe Harry says "Joy to the World" at one point. Hey - that's close enough for me!

Harry's talent is the treasure...not sure if this tune is good or bad...good, bad, good, bad, goood, badd,gguuod, bbaddd, goooo, baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa....well, you know what I mean.
