Favourite Christmas Song

Post by whiteswan »

Well, I really dislike the fact that everywhere you go these songs blare out. Gets right on my chimes. From October to January. Does anyone have a favourite? Do you love these songs rolled out year after year, hour by hour. Actually I do have a favourite (hate to admit it).... Anyone else have a fave or like me, can't wait to hear the back of most of them.

Fairytale always gets me Swannie but Darlene Love ‘ Christmas ( Baby, please come home ) ‘ is probably my favourite.

"It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas" by Bing Crosby.

The whole song just captures the true spirit of Christmas.

Top 3
I believe in Father Christmas - Greg Lake
2000 Miles - Pretenders
Winter Wonderland - Darlene Love

I can put up with Christmas songs from the 1st December to Boxing Day but I've had enough after that

This is not a joke it really happened

School Cancels Handel’s Messiah’ Performance Amid Backlash Over Christian Music

A school in Finland has cancelled a concert of Handel’s “Messiah” performed by the Finnish Baroque Orchestra and the Helsinki Chamber Choir over concerns the recital’s Christian themes might offend some students.

Officials with the school hosting the concert in question made the decision after learning about a case in Hämeenlinna, a Finnish city, where a child objected to songs about the life of Jesus performed at an undisclosed school. Ultimately, the National Non-Discrimination and Equality Tribunal decided the non-Christian pupils should be compensated 1,500 euros (or $1,562) for their offense

Good call, there's not been a voice like his or Sinatra's since their prime ...
