What Is Your Favorite Christmas Song?

[egarrard]

Like the title says, what Christmas music is your favorite?

Here's (http://www.lockergnome.com/midi/holiday.html) a sampling to refresh your memory.

[Tivon]

Jingle bells, shot gun shells, grandma had a gun!:jawsdown

It’s totally racist, but it cracks me up.:p

[Jei-sama]

ALL Christmas music!
though the Disney stuff is the BEST!

[Maniacmous]

I'm quite fond of the Tales From The Crypt Christmas album, as well as the Chipmunk one, and Bob River's Twisted Christmas Carols.

[bejohnson]

Silent Night
Handel's Messiah

[Maniacmous]

Well, reading back, I guess I skipped the direct question...to which I would prob. reply Carol of the Bells...the tune to it is awesome.

ROFL!:lmao

Jugband Christmas!:hail

[wazman]

Little Drummer Boy.

I used to listen to that on the record player when I was about 3 or 4 for hours... I'd just sit and play it over and over again...

Carol of the Bells is second.

[thephenom]

12 Days of Christmas!!!! :thumb

BTW, is Christmas here yet??? It's getting COLD already.....

[Thrasher]

Mine is Carol of the Bells....by the Trans-Siberian Orchestra. http://www.trans-siberian.com/

I've grown tired of the "typical" holiday tunes, which get overplayed IMO.

But my favorite legitimate Christmas song would be O Holy Night.

It's only October!

That's why I dislike Christmas now - stuff is in the shops by the end of Jan - it is nothing to do with the festival of Noel - just marketing and how many presents you get for Christmas

[Artcwolf]

Silent Night
Carol of the Bells
O, Holy Night

[JohnathanJones]

O, Holy Night
Jingle Bells
Oh, Chrstmas Tree....

I don't know. Though I like most of the Rudolph songs and Frosty to the Snowman. Also its beginning to look like christmas. I usually whistle that or sing it lol. Even when its not christmas.

I always listen every christmas on the roof sorta to see if I can hear any of the Reindeer! Espically Rudolph the red nose Reindeer! Yes I still believe in Santa Claus and flying Reindeer. Why? Well because I want to. There is no proof that says its not real and there is none that says it is. No one knows 100% for sure. Yes I did ask my parents a long time ago if they were real they said no. I chose to go against what my parents said because I don't believe it. Anything is possible. I think thats one reason why I like snow so much too. Reminds me of christmas!

I feel the same way about snow - to me it's not Christmas without snow on the ground.

[WazLady73]

O Holy Night...is my favorite.

I grew up on the traditional Christmas music sung by The Ray Coniff Singers and the singers of the '50's and such.

Now I am getting in the mood for Christmas. Yes, it is getting chilly here...not really cold cold....mid 60's and such.

And yes...snow has to be on the ground!
:bounce

[imtim83]

Around a estimate of 2 months till christmas! Wow it went so fast! No offense.

You wouldn't ever have Christmas where I'm at, then.

We almost never see snow at Christmas...and if we do it's just a slight dusting that melts when it hits the ground.

I'm going to San Antonio to see my Grandparents this year for Christmas. I'll take some pics and post them. There have been a few Christmas's where I've gotten to wear short sleeve t-shirts.

I guess you just have to find a way to make it Christmas without snow. Since I've grown up without it, I don't really miss it.

Not to mention, I hate cold weather.

I love Christmas Eve service at Church, listening to the music, then driving around afterwards to see the Christmas lights.

:Nice

[imtim83]

I love driving around to see christmas lights as well. Espically certain blocks that every house has lights and lots of stuff! Then there are the big houses that have all kind of lights and stuff!

[ch0g0nda]

Bohemian Rhapsody...

Yah I'm addicted.

[JohnathanJones]

I just loved my Christmas Eve last year! During the day I went shopping and hung out with my friends and went to different Christmas parties! Then I rented some Christmas movies. Then when the sun went down I walked around downtown Jacksonville looked at all the lights and took the bus home.

Then about time I got home I just watched the movies. Somtimes when I get home on Christmas Eve nobody's home because everyone was still at a party or last minute shopping! I then just sat back on my computer relaxed and watched Christmas DVD's with ("Special EggNog" if you know what I mean) untill they got home or until I fell asleeep! :santa :santa :santa :santa

Due to the opposite seasons in effect in the Southern Hemisphere only Masochists go for Turkey and all the Trimmings! it is usually about 40Degrees here so it is BBQ weather!

People here usually go for Christmas in July when t is coldest

I also Love ANYTHING on the Charlie Brown Christmas Album *I'm listening to it right now, lol* Me and two of my best friends have a little singing trio and at christmas we go around singing 3 part carols in matching christmas caroler costumes we made together (Dickens style) it's so much fun!

But my favorite songs have to be Carol of the Bells and God Rest ye merry Gentlemen...and I always have my CD containing It's beginning to look a lot like christmas, in the car, for that first winter drive:rofl2 it's fun to roll around with the windows rolled down and that blaring(along with the heat BRRR.....)

[blpeterson]

Silent Night
Oh Holy Night
Carol of the Bells
Oh Come all Ye Faithful
The Little Drummer Boy
White Christmas
And the entire Handel's Messiah

[JCYC5]

I like White Christmas...

...no white christmas over here... :Mad

[XxFaeryOnFirexX]

I like all Christmas music. its all pretty much good.

Can make a nice setting.

[WazLady73]

Last year on Christmas Eve...God came through for me and it SNOWED!!!!:santa

I watched my fav Christmas movies, "It's a Wonderful Life" and "White Christmas"..nothing like Christmas movies from the Golden era from Hollywood to put you right in the sprit!:santa

Usually we go to Wazman's parents house and do Christmas there and then on Christmas day we go to my folks house.

But Christmas Eve...it just has a certian sprirt in the air...there is just something magical about it. You can feel it...it is there...like that feeling your glad to be alive.

But I too like to drive around and see all the lights...

There is just something about it...:santa
