The whole "Muppet Christmas" album with John Denver from the 70s of course!
It's not X-mas without it. "I saw a woman with major Hammer pants on the subway a few weeks ago and totally thought of you." - sextonseven | |

I really like The Roches Christmas album... Then there's Baby It's Cold Outside by Dean Martin... an unintentionally twisted little ditty... | |

CHRISTMAS AT GROUND ZERO (Weird Al Yankovich) and the Harry Simeone version of LITTLE DRUMMER BOY have always been my faves for Christmas. Could we get much diff'rent here? There is a version of the second song by Low that moves me . . . and the Prince howliday tune, o' course. Really been diggin' that Trans-Siberian Orchestra bit too, like everybody else - is it CHRISTMAS AT SARAJEVO? Like the Meat Loaf Christmas album or somethin'.
Gotta give Charlie Brown his props - And the Grinch tune - John Lennon - And, while I generally detest country music, that song about the CHRISTMAS SHOES really got me when I heard it (feeling a bit sentimental, I'm afraid). By the way, wasn't Jesus born in, like, October or something? | |

Mariah's "All I want For Christmas"
Wham "Last Christmas" Band Aid "do they know its christmas" Sinead O'Connor " Silent Night" Dean Martin "Let It snow" But the best ever??? It has to be... Wizzard! "I Wish It Could Be Christmas Everyday!"!! . | |

That Christmas song by Mariah Carey, I just saw the name above...'All I want For Christmas' (?) stays playing in mind about this time. | |

I really, really HATE that song!!! "...Mommy's really sick & I want her to look beautiful in case she meets Jesus tonight..." WAZZUPWITDAT!?!?!?! Every time I hear it my eyes get teary......sorry but it's just too damned SAD to be a X'Mas song. That's why I'm not so fond of Another Lonely Christmas either. By St. Boogar and all the saints at the backside door of Purgatory! | |

And those falsetto's just couldn't get any higher. The song is 8:25. It's in 2 parts. (You know how groups did back in day with those extended versions--like the Isley Bros.) After hearing it instead of putting me in the mood for more X-mas songs I just had to hear "Skin Tight!" . [This message was edited Sat Dec 6 11:45:41 PST 2003 by UptownDeb] | |

Yeah, that's my favorite X-mas song. Chuck and Vince's "Christmas Time is Here" is a close second. I love the entire Charlie Brown Christmas album ( I occasionally listen to it throughout the year). That Temptations Christmas album is also good. Can't forget Eartha either: Santa Baby is classic. [This message was edited Sat Dec 6 13:23:55 PST 2003 by whodknee] | |

Has anybody here heard George Winston's 'December'? It's an instrumental piano album that's inspired all the way through. | |
