Yeah, yeah, I know what some of you are thinking: “Inkwell, out of all the carols that you’ve been putting out this month, you’re posting the one from Home Alone 2?” Now before you jump the gun on this, hear me out. Believe it or not, I was actually introduced the the squeal first before the original. Heck, by the time this movie came out, it’ll be about a year before I was even born. And besides, I grew up with the movie as a kid and I didn’t see the first one until years later. Nowadays I consider that film in the category of “so bad it’s good” films.
Okay, so why did I chose this one? It’s because that out of all the film’s music, this one tune stuck out at me for some reason. I feel in love with its choir and tune when I first heard it, casting some kind of spell over me that haunts me as an adult. Even if all the film is forgotten from my memory and the original VCR tape has decayed, I doubt that this tune would be erased that easily.
