What are some of your favorite Xmas songs and what do they mean to you???????Let's get into the Xmas spirit!!!!!!!!
Silent night!!!!!
Silver Bells!!!!


I learned "What Child is this?" in Chorus when I was in high school and I always have it in the back of my mind this time of year. On a lighter note, I like Burl Ives rendition of Jingle Bell Rock :p


John Lennon's " Happy Christmas " ....Love the lyrics.
Karen :)


I love to listen to the Trans-Siberian Orchestra - Christmas Eve and Other Stories -- they are great!!


1 Attachment(s) My sister Joanne loved Elvis. Whenever I hear "Blue Christmas" it brings tears to my eyes. I also love "The Little Drummer Boy".


1 Attachment(s) John Lennon- great choice!
But it's really not Christmas with out
the Bing Crosby/David Bowie version of Drummer
or Bruce Springsteen "santa Claus is coming to town"
Ok I could go on all day!
I did hear a funny one on z100 this morning about putting the angel on the tree- in the background you hear the angel screaming in pain...ok its cruel but funny- the song is sung to a doo-wop song


"Chestnuts Roastin' On An Open Fire"
or is it called "THE CHRISTMAS SONG"


[SIZE=3] would have to say any Christmas song by the 1 & only Barbra Streisand!!!!!! Doesn't get any better then that!! Her music sends chills through my body, She simply touches my inner soul!![/SIZE]


The ones that are sung silently in the minds of one’s self, that or anything by Guns ‘N’ Roses……lol


LoL Fred.......Yea I hear ya!!! You like rock, thats cool . I am a big metal head over here:D


I think that by as soon as tomorrow the radio stations will have permanently turned me off to any holiday music. I want to hear it when I'm in the mood, not every minute until Christmas Day. And for some weird reason I don't like to hear it at work.

This friend of yours wanted to post his favorite song. He couldn't type with his hooves so he's going to sing it to you instead,,,,,,,,

I totally agree with you there..................I want to hear it when I want to hear it!!! As for work, I don't like it playing at "work" (in the gym) when it's on the kids get nothing accomplished, they are already hyped about Christmas, when the songs are playing forget it I lose them!! ( I'm not a scooge, as it gets closer to Christmas we willl play them and the kids make up dances to the songs...real cute :).....just not this every day thing!)
Now, as for my favorite song........."There's no place like home for the holiday". It reminds me of being at my grandparents home in Manchester, Connecticut......snow, family, togetherness, and wonderful memories.


Well, it's bitter sweet....but Silent Night is extra special to me
I love all Christmas songs....
we can play a mean Greensleeves (What Child is This) on the guitar. Me and my husband have been practicing christmas songs for over a month hoping to make a CD by christmas.. It may or may not happen.
And I too like to choose my christmas tune listening....and work is OK for me when it's closer to Christmas.


Denise....that is so AWESOME.....good luck to both of you!!!!
I have many guitar favorites (songs from the musical Godspell, are amongst my favorites).
Remember him???.....Leo Kottke?


I guess you youngins will like xmas songs more when you get up there!!!!!!!! lol
annie,,,,,,,,,I can't hear that cow singing!!!!!!!!!!!!what's it singing?someday you'll wish you owned a cow when you don't have any money to buy milk!!!!! lmao,,,,
I don't remember playing on the radio so many xmas songs so early!!!!!!!!or am I loosing my memory???????lol


I can not believe all of you missed the most obvious for those of us with p!!!!!
....Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow!!......:D :rolleyes:


Thanks for the "good luck" coach! :) We are having fun playing the guitars...although one guitar is unfortunately in the repair shop now so we are a couple days without practice...thinking of buying a 3rd for times like this.
Coach...I've been meaning to PM you.... I have an important Captain Anderson's question for you! :)
Btw, I've heard of Godspell.... Leo Kottke, no. But now I do want to know i'll look him up.
Joy to the World! (keeping with thread topic)

Feliz Navidad, Feliz Navidad, ............Feliz Navidad y prospero y felizidad!
I wanna wish you a Merry Christmas ......I wanna wish you a Merry Christmas......... I wanna wish you a Merry Chrismas from the bottom of my heart!

I have a great appreciation for the "Hallelujah Chorus" by Handel. I've sung it the past 3 years with a 250+ person choir and it's really powerful. I also like "Choir of the Bells", it's so complex and busy.


I admire anyone who can sing those songs! My mother was in a chorus when she was younger and used to love the choir of the bells...............beautiful!
