Snoopy's Christmas

Ha! Great question

Of course I love Santa Claus and his old lady.
There is a local radio station that does song parodies. Some of the songs are hilarious, like "Trailer Park Winter Wonderland" to the tune of "Walking in a winter wonderland"

Seriously though,
I love
Little town of Bethlehem
Carol of the Bells
Coventry Carol (old English tunes just send me )
Elvis' Blue Christmas (I've been living in the south too long)
Now it is Christmas (Lennon, I think)
Lo, How a Rose Er Blooming
and
I'll be home for Christmas (when certain people sing it, it makes me cry)

"I'll be home for Christmas"....yes! Really...a sad one I feel though...but I delve in the melancholly sometimes.
"It came upon a Midnight Clear" is sweet and peaceful...

Right now though I'm listening to a jazzy "I'd Like to Hitch a Ride with Santa Claus"...sorta funny...
"Santa lost his Ho" is hilarious!
I'd have to say most Christmas songs are quite lame though. By the day after it's good when stations slip back to normal mode so you don't hafta hear the bogus ones much.
Hmmm....barrrrupabupbum on that!
t.c...dan

That's right. And I haven't heard it yet, so I can still pretend this Christmas thing isn't happening, lol.

Santa Clause is Back in Town, performed by Elvis Presley. A dirty Christmas song-how could I not love it?

The First Noel ...My daughters middle name is Noel in fact
