Title: What's your favourite Christmas song/carol?
Post by: Edwolf on December 05, 2011, 03:28:30 PM
With Christmas only around the corner, we all (without doubts) have our favourite Christmas song/carol. So which is your favourite? It could be more than one! After all, this thread should give you the opportunity to talk about it.

I don't really like Christmas music in general, but this is one of the few I don't mind:

Mariah Carey - All I want for Christmas is you [Lyrics] (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wxO1iGGw8t4#)

And this one has some personal meaning to me:

Merry Christmas, Darling - Karen Carpenter (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YR1ujXx2p-I#)

Those songs are lovely! I especially like All I Want For Christmas Is You as it brings back memories of the '90s. Thanks for mentioning that!

I have quite a few.

Christmas Shoes - NewSong (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0a_Y1wAJ2MU#)
This one always makes me cry, but I still love it.

Where Are You Christmas? - Faith Hill (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nmGSHZYZ74c#noexternalembed)

Believe - Josh Groban (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nZ19mW-TMRk#)

My Grown-Up Christmas List - Amy Grant (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RmF2rsDHOZc#)

Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays - N*Sync (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wKj92352UAE#ws)
Yes, I still like N*Sync songs.

And of course I like "All I Want For Christmas Is You" by Mariah Carey, but Zeph already linked to that one.

And here's a good one!:
Billy Gilman - Rudolph The Red Nosed Reindeer (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uY00JgHyjsI#) - I think this rendition of this particular song is the best one!

Yeah, Rudolph is a classic. And I love the movie that this version is in.

I also forgot "Silent Night" and "O Holy Night". Those are a couple of classic Christmas songs that I love.

So do I! Have you seen the video I produced two years ago on YouTube? If you haven't, here it is:
Rudolph's 70th Birthday (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a-LpTIq63CE#)


As we return to the topic of songs and carols, another of my favourites is Santa Claus Is Coming To Town.

I remember visiting a museum devoted to mechanical music once. Among the various items in the collection, there was a phonograph playing a cylinder also titled God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen. The cylinder itself was recorded by Bransby Williams, a music hall star from the Edwardian era and also the curator's grandfather (!), in 1911 as part of a production of Scrooge.

No but my entire family has been obsessed with Hawaii since before I was born. I grew going there every other summer and love it to death.

Not quite but you're on the right track. I say that because I remember my school staging a production one summer and within that was a parody on The Twelve Days of Christmas (it was re-titled E=MC2 because the production itself was Einstein-themed).
