White Christmas- the Drifters.

I HATE Christmas Shoes! I have to turn the radio off when it comes on. It is the worst song ever written.

My favorite is the Hallelujah Chorus from "The Messiah".

For fun, I like Judith Owen's "Christmas with the Devil" and Within Temptation's "Gothic Christmas"

...from "Gothic Christmas"

We’re gonna have a Gothic Christmas:
That is what we’ll do.
We’re gonna have a Gothic Christmas:
Hope you’ll have one too.

Santa’s going to wear a black dress;
Just for me and you.
Santa’s going to grunt in Latin;
And slay a dragon or two.

Rudolph, he will change his name,
’Cause “Rudolph” just sounds really lame—
Now we’ll call him Ragnagord,
The evil reindeer overlord.

His nose it shall be red no more—
It will be blackened to the core.
His eyes will glow an evil glow,
To guide the chariot through the snow …

Methinks I agree with you on that. We got to sing it in show choir once (yes, I said show choir) and we got a standing ovation from the audience! It was the coolest feeling, plus mega goosebumps! I still remember the whole thing. smile

I totally agree on the goosebumps.

I started singing "The Messiah" in high school, and usually participate in a Messiah sing-in a local church sponsors.

goosebumps every time.

My church choir sang it again to end our program this year. And it is tradition to stand during the song. Anyone know why? When it was first performed, the Queen of England was so moved that she stood. Anytime the Queen stands, everyone stands. So now it is tradition that you stand for the song because the Queen did.

Carol of the Bells,

And there is a relatively new song, Mary, Did You Know?, that I heard the other night while was half watching some country Christmas special. Incredible song. I would like to hear either Steve Perry or Adele do a version of this...

and Christmas Wrapping by the Waitresses...

My dad's family gets together every year at some point around Christmas to celebrate. We are a big family and we love to sing, acapella, of course. We always sing carols, and many times we take the caroling to the local hospital and homes of close family friends. I used to be embarrassed, but now I think it's one of the neatest traditions, and I hate missing it.

Those who have married in, and are not blessed with our vocal abilities sing quitetly or lip sync. My hubs fits into this category. smile
