This unlikely combination of tunes will get you rocking around the Christmas tree this festive season.

Musician Aaron Gage of Maryland is seen arranging an unlikely yuletide mashup of the famous carol "Deck the Halls" and "War Pigs" by Black Sabbath, a song made famous on the English rockers' second album, "Paranoid," which came out in 1970.

Gage performed every track of the recording and arranged it himself.

The 53-second clip - he claims - shows how both tunes are completely interchangeable.

Gage said: "I'll bet you never realized how rhythmically similar the lyrics to these two songs work out.

"So here's a little clip of me mashing them up together!

"To those asking for a longer version, I made this as a quick fun little project in about two hours after noticing the similarities between the two songs.

"Trust me when I say I chose the best part of both songs where they sync up like this.

"The words and match-ups only go so far in an eight-minute-long song.

"I worried it might go stale of using too much of it, which may have resulted in overkill."

Have you ever noticed how well War Pigs and Deck the Halls match each other rhythmically in their lyrics? Well, wonder no longer as Aaron Gage shows you exactly how well they blend. The mashup features a :53 second long clip showing how both songs are completely interchangeable. Gage recorded and performed every track on the video and while many have asked for a full version, he insists that it was intended to be a fun little project and to have people enjoy the fun of it more than anything.
