RE: What is your favorite holiday song?

Silent Night has always been one of my fave's as long as I am not singing it.

RE: What is your favorite holiday song?

I can't choose one! All of the classics-Sinatra, Nat King Cole, Dean Martin & others, along with Mariah Carey's versions, Trans-Siberian, and Michael Buble's new album have all been on my playlists recently. I also like some of those instrumental jazz versions.

Oo wait I've got it, Someday at Christmas -Stevie Wonder. I love that one.

If you mean classical, then I love away in a manger, but if you mean pop kind, then it's gotta be umm what's it called, you know, the one that goes so here it is, merry Christmas!

RE: What is your favorite holiday song?

I'm not a big fan of Christmas music...but I absolute am addicted to the Christmas movies...especially the ones on the Hallmark Channel.

RE: What is your favorite holiday song?

For me, one of my first thoughts of Christmas is the music. The memories of my Mother on Thanksgiving day starting the morning off, by turning on the record player and playing Christmas music. She would play them until the 26th, when the record player would sit quietly until the next Thanksgiving morning.

She also each year would go to the nearby Firestone tire store to buy their record of the year. In later years, she bought Christmas music from other places too, but in the early years just from the tire store. Money was tight, but that was her one gift each Christmas to herself.

When I moved out and started my own family, each year she would hunt to find me a cassette with some version of Feliz Navidad on it. Jose of course sings it better then anybody, but there is this salsa version which I also love.

She is gone now and Christmas no longer holds the magic it once did for me, but still just hearing Feliz Navidad makes a tiny spark of that magic come alive and fills me with such warm memories, plus no matter where I am, I can't help but sing along.

That was a beautiful post, and I think you are a very strong person. Someday I might be able to listen to Christmas music again, and walk in the streets of Manhattan, looking in the windows at the animated Christmas settings and hearing the Carolers singing and the street corner Santa's ringing their bells, the venders selling hot chocolate and roosted chestnuts, and walking through Macy's Department store looking at all the beautiful decorations.......but not yet. I want to go to sleep the day before Thanksgiving and wake up Jan. 2nd. Sorry....I do hope you can all keep on singing and enjoying your music though. Be happy.

Carol of the Bells, specifically the Trans-Siberian Orchestra playing Carol of the Bells I love to sing that one too when I can get people to sing along all the harmonies!

A couple of you have mentioned this song. However, when looking the only one I can find with the two of them is not just Little Drummer Boy, but also another song, too. Is this actually the one you guys are referring to?
