A Festive Reimagining: The Pulltops Bring Pop-Punk Energy to 'On christmas Day [I Saw Three Ships]'


The Pulltops’ dynamic reinterpretation of the traditional Christmas carol I Saw Three Ships is a dazzling blend of timeless charm and modern pop-punk energy. Milwaukee-based duo Mark Pierret and Tom Crowell breathe new life into this holiday classic, crafting a version brimming with festive spirit and contemporary flair. Their rendition, titled ''On Christmas Day (I Saw Three Ships),'' feels tailor-made for a high-energy Christmas playlist or the climactic moment of a holiday movie montage. With its infectious energy, the track is a celebration of tradition infused with the duo's bold, vibrant sound.


From the outset, the song grabs attention with punchy guitars and a propulsive rhythm that set the tone for a joyful yet rebellious take on the classic. Crowell’s intricate riffs complement Pierret’s commanding drumbeats, creating an exhilarating soundscape. The traditional lyrics, which describe three ships sailing into harbor on Christmas morning, are preserved but invigorated by anthemic “Oh oh oh” refrains and spirited vocals. The balance between reverence for the original carol and the duo’s fresh, energetic interpretation makes the track feel both nostalgic and exciting—perfect for a lively holiday concert or a festive scene of characters embracing seasonal joy.



The Pulltops’ diverse musical influences shine through in this rendition, melding soulful earthiness with experimental undertones. Pierret’s grounding in classic sounds pairs seamlessly with Crowell’s penchant for edgy, underground vibes, resulting in a track that feels both traditional and refreshingly modern. While staying true to its roots, the raw energy and layered instrumentation bring the carol into the contemporary era. Its soaring melodies and driving beats create a festive atmosphere that could underscore a feel-good family movie, a coming-of-age drama, or a spirited Netflix holiday special.


What sets ''On Christmas Day (I Saw Three Ships)'' apart is its authenticity and contagious energy. The performance feels unpolished in the best way, radiating warmth and excitement perfect for moments of collective celebration. It’s the soundtrack for snowball fights, spontaneous dance parties, or even heartfelt scenes of characters rallying to save Christmas. Whether featured in a film, a holiday commercial, or your own festive playlist, The Pulltops’ reimagining captures the spirit of the season while reminding us that Christmas is about both honoring tradition and embracing joyful reinvention.
