Okay, let's talk about the soundtrack to that super dramatic episode of The Vampire Diaries, Season 4, Episode 9, also known as "O Come, All Ye Faithful". Forget the angst for a minute and focus on the tunes that made it all the more epic, right?
Grooving Through Mystic Falls
The music in this episode was like a perfectly mixed cocktail of holiday cheer and impending doom. Think jingle bells ringing subtly while someone plots your demise. Pretty much par for the course in Mystic Falls.
One standout was definitely "Angels We Have Heard on High" by Meaghan Smith. Talk about a fresh take on a classic! It was all kinds of quirky and sweet, definitely not your grandma's rendition.

The Underdog Anthems
Sometimes, the less obvious songs are the real MVPs. Songs like "The Christmas Song" by Nat King Cole. A timeless classic, really.
It added a touch of classic holiday warmth to the episode. Especially with all the vampires, werewolves, and doppelgangers running around.
Did anyone else find it slightly ironic that a song about chestnuts roasting on an open fire was playing while someone was probably being staked? Only in Mystic Falls, folks.
More Music
