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

Thank you!  I had not heard Seger's version of Drummer Boy.

You don’t become cooler with age but you do care progressively less about being cool, which is the only true way to actually be cool.

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.

Au contraire ... scroll up ...you'll see the song.  Enjoy the music.  Grandma must have drank too much egg nog!

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.
