We have a question for you. Which of the music backed montages gave you most chills?

Carol Of The Bells - Noel 2x10

Brothers in Arms - Two Cathedrals 2x22

Hallelujah - Posse Comitatus 3x22

I Don’t Like Mondays - 20 Hours In America 4x02

O Holy Night - Holy Night 4x11

Sanvean - 7A WF 83429 5x01

Think of others? Let us know your favourite!

For this FYWW editor it is close between O Holy Night and Brothers In Arms. The scene in Holy Night is wonderful when Schlamme slowly moves the camera into the Oval as we see a deeply troubled Bartlett at the window and the song reaches its crescendo at “Fall on your knees, hear the angels voices.”
