The Christmas Song (Chestnuts roasting on an open fire...) by Nat King Cole
Nat's solo version of The Christmas Song?
Or one of the duets (Nat with Frank Sinatra or Nat with daughter Natalie)
I prefer the author of the tune, Mel Torme's version of that song.

My Daughter surprised me last week when she and her class snag it at their Christmas Concert. She knows I love this song and she didn't tell they were singing it so i would be surprised.
My absolute favorite song and my favorite version of it..... Mary Did You Know sung by Kathy Mattea This song says it all for me. The first time I heard this song a few years back our Contemporary Music Team in Church sang it. I wept at the words.

I thought yours would be "Grandpa Got Run Over By A Mudboat" ;D ;D ;D
For me, it would be Silent Night, sung a cappella, or w/ guitar.
