Feliz Navidad and that one Paul McCartney sings.

By the way, the other day I had on the oldies station and they played one by Ringo Starr that I had never heard before. It was TERRIBLE! The Worst Christmas Song I've Ever Heard. Anyone know what I'm talking about?

Few can ever beat the raw power of Springsteen's take on Santa Claus is Coming to Town; the season isn't really here till you first hear him belt out those opening lines. A softer and more contemporary favorite would be Amy Grant's Christmas to Remember; that gets you in the spirit each and every time.

That Spirit of Christmas (Ray Charles), The Christmas Guest (Reba), Last Christmas (Wham).

Can we at least say what these links to You Tube are for?

Most of the time when someone posts a link to youtube, or sends me one through email, it doesn't play correctly because I don't have super high speed internet. So please put a label on the links, and Paul already asked you to do that before.

I don't like Mariah Carey, but I do like her All I Want for Christmas is You. I also love The Little Drummer Boy (Bob Seger version).

I also hate MARIAH CAREY with passion...but damn, if that song isnt freakin' catchy! My middle sister says it is her favorite Christmas song ever.

I just realized I missed Holly Jolly Christmas (although that counts as a Rudolph song) and Jingle Bell Rock. Rockin Around The Christmas Tree by RONNIE SPECTOR is good too.

I did not know the Wilson sisters DID a Christmas song. I'll have to check that out.

I think you're thinking of Darlene Love's "All Alone on Christmas." Yep, that is a pretty good one--as is the series' underrated anthem "Somewhere in My Memory."

The only Christmas cd's that i play are Carpenters' Christmas and one with the Rat Pack songs. I hate the Mariah Carey one; my husband bought it and she totally ruined all of those tradtional songs. It's not my taste.
Sammy- I love Nat King Cole! I grew up listening to him, he was my mother's favorite singer. And I like the Louis Armstrong version of Winter Wonderland. Wasn't it played in When Harry Met SAlly?
