Oh! You guys have picked so many that I love! :D

Some of my very, very favorite are....

Christmas Wrapping~ The Waitresses
You're A Mean One, Mr. Grinch~ Whirling Dervishes
Gabriel's Message~ Sting
All I Want For Christmas Is You~ Mariah Carey
Sleigh Ride~ Debbie Gibson
Winter Wonderland~ The Cocteau Twins
December Will Be Magic Again~ Kate Bush
Baby It's Cold Outside~ Dean Martin
Santa Baby~ Eartha Kitt
(Everybody's Waitin' For) The Man With The Bag~ Kay Starr
What Are You Doing New Year's Eve?~ Nancy Wilson
I've Got My Love To Keep Me Warm~ Dean Martin
Carol Of The Bells~ Trans Siberian Orchestra & Metallica

I love all of the traditional carols like Silent Night, O Holy Night, Ave Maria, Gloria, Hark the Herald Angels Sing and so many more! I always get happy chills when we sing Joy To The World at the end of Midnight Mass (the traditional carol, not the Three-Dog Night bullfrog tribute.)

Sigh. I love Christmas. :)

I love the Vince Guaraldi Charlie Brown Christmas. It's in my car. Along with Christmas Cocktails, from the Ultra Lounge series.That is such a fun CD. The organ is an instrument we don't hear enough of these days.

I have too many to list!

I love all the carols by the Carpenters, but they always make me emotional and weepy. I dig on Bing, too. Crosby, not cherry.

I must confess that I love the dogs barking Jingle Bells. And the Chipmunks' Christmas Time Is Here Again. Little Alvin & his dreams of a hula hoop. :)

I just heard an older Xmas tune that I haven't heard before and it's pretty hysterical.
'Must Be Santa' by Mitch Miller

It's so funny and so retro. You gotta give it a listen.
:D

As usual, Lisa has the hippest list of all! :) Great choices, all!

Not Afraid 12-22-2005 10:08 PM

Yeah, I'm so old I'm hip again!

blueerica 12-22-2005 10:21 PM

LOL, Oh noes, Lisa!!

Nah - those are just the great choices.... some of those songs, I wouldn't have even thought of!

I almost forgot about Christmas Wrapping by The Waitresses that Ally mentioned... the only Christmas song I can't wait to hear on the radio!

And it's real hip, not artificial :p

Erica, I love the Waitresses "Christmas Wrapping!" I also love Sleigh Ride and Elton John's "Step Into Christmas." My favorite version of Jingle Bells is Bing Crosby with the Andrews Sisters.

I went crazy requesting and checking out any Christmas CDs I could get my hands on at the library and those 2 CDs were in my stack at home!

I'm playing the Christmas Cocktails one as we speak!!
