What's your favorite Christmas music?
« on: December 20, 2009, 07:50:25 AM »
I figured since we were discussing shows, I'd also ask if there was any particular music that made Christmas complete for you?

For me it's Burl Ives, and The Christmas Chipmunks (No laughing!) :*)) ;D

In no particular order:

Nat King Cole
Elvis

I new a capella CD I just bought by "Straight No Chaser". The version of "Sweet Little Jesus Boy" stopped me dead in my tracks the first time I heard it. I couldn't find that song by them on-line but here's a little taste of some CHristmas music by them:

We've been grooving on the channel that Sirius is running  with Christmas music mostly from the 40s and 50s.

Guess, for me, I really want to listen to the  - Little Drummer Boy by the Mormon Tabernacle Choir  at this time of year. 

Other than that, most any thing that the Mannheim Steamroller does.
Great Music, Great Christmas Music 

But you can't leave out White Christmas, by Bing Crosby, one of the greatest Non-Religious
Christmas Songs ever recorded.

Trans-Siberian Orchestra is right up there on my list.  I have all their Christmas CDs.

And of course, the Christmas hymns from church.
