Title: In the Spirit of Christmas

I love Christmas carols.  I've got my car radio tuned into a station that is only playing Christmas music right now.

I’m kind of schizophrenic with my Christmas songs.

My two favorites are “O Holy Night”, and “Christmas don’t be late” by Alvin and the Chipmunks.

I also really like Trans Siberian Orchestra

I think my favorite is "O Come, O Come, Emmanuel." Of the contemporary ones, Amy Grant's "Emmanuel/Little Town/Christmas Hymn" and Michael Card's "Immanuel."

Hmm, I'm sensing a theme.

I live in Florida ... I like the tune ... but, I'm not dreaming of a White Christmas.  It's a very breezy, but sunny 71 degrees.

Great selections @Gefn . I have a hard time selecting a favorite but am partial to The Little Drummer Boy. I also have a cd that Tennessee Ford did of Christmas carols that I really like.

I also love TSO and have been to two of their concerts. They are great!

And Dreidel, Dreidel  and a Happy Hanukkah to you!

Wish I was here yesterday or I would have voted for Angels We Have Heard on High.  As a young pup, I loved to sing the chorus, although I usually ran out of breath about halfway through.  Not that I can sing anyway.  LOL

As someone posted, there are a LOT of Christmas carols and songs. Probably my two favorites, not among the choices (and not complaining about it), are "Joy to the World" and "Hark! The Herald Angels Sing".

At age 6, as part of my school (parochial) work and to participate in our church's Christmas presentation, I memorized "Joy to the World", "Hark! The Herald Angels Sing", "Silent Night", "Oh Come All Ye Faithful", "O Little Town of Bethlehem", "Away in a Manger", and "From Heaven Above to Earth I Come". All. Verses. I don't know how I managed to do it, but they have stuck with me through the decades.

Should have OTHER as a category.  My favorite is Christmas Song, you know 'chestnuts roasting by an open fire, Jack Frost nipping at your nose....
