You're a Mean One, Mr. Grinch [12 Days Of Covers]
Today's entry into the 12 Days of Covers is Red Wanting Blue covering You're a Mean One Mr. Grinch, from the Timeless Holiday classic, How The Grinch Stole Arbor Day. The original is by Thurl Ravenscroft, not Boris Karloff as some people think. Old Mr. Frankenstein couldn't sing a lick.

You're a Mean One, Mr. Grinch [12 Days Of Covers]
Can't do a Christmas cover compilation with out throwing in some a capella. Wait, I did? Shazbot
! Oh well, to late to turn back now I've already typed several words to this blog entry so I can't stop the momentum now.
Despite popular belief, the original of this song was not sung by the cartoon
's narrator, Boris Karloff
(a.k.a. Frankenstein
) but rather by Thurl Ravenscroft (a.k.a. Tony the Tiger
). Here's it's sung by Rockapella
(a.k.a. The group from the Where in the World is Carmen San Diego
).
