I found by accident both the Heat Miser and the Cold Miser songs while I was err.....no....when a "friend" of mine was illegally downloading Christmas music recently.Wayfriend wrote:Oh ... I also love every song in Rudoph the Rednose Reindeer...
You got that right!!Wayfriend wrote: BTW, every year I try to add a good new Xmas CD to the collection ... so I like this thread. There's a lot of crappy music out there you gotta stay away from...
Rather odd, given that both Dee Snyder and J.J.French are Jewish.Emotional Leper wrote:Twisted Sister -- Oh Come All Ye Faithful

I guess "Dreidel, Dreidel, Dreidel" didn't rock hard enough.
That and you can't fit the words to 'Dreidel, Dreidel, Dreidel' to the tune of "No, we're not gonna take it."Cail wrote:Rather odd, given that both Dee Snyder and J.J.French are Jewish.Emotional Leper wrote:Twisted Sister -- Oh Come All Ye Faithful

That's a really good one. I also love Clyde McPhatter's White Christmas, the Joan Baez cover of Oh, Holy Night (sung in French), SHEdaisy's Jingle Bells. These pop into the top of my head.amanibhavam wrote:I think my favourite Christmas album is Winter Tales from Loreena McKennitt.

And then there is Bob Rivers: Chipmunks Roasting On An Open Fire, Walking Round In Women's Underwear, I Came Upon a Roadkill Deer, The Buttcracker, Hark! The Hare-lipped Angels Sing........lots of good ones!

You got 88% correct. You know your seasonal songs! Treat yourself to an extra slice of fruitcake
Is this new?! I've never heard this (and I am a *huge* fan) I have heard (and adore) Christmas at the Zoo.Lord Foul wrote:A Change At Christmas (Say It Isn't So), by The Flaming Lips
I know everything changes
Yeah, it's strange how time marches on
Maybe there'll be some time in the future
Oh, tell me I'm not wrong
Oh, if I could stop time
It would be a frozen moment just around Christmas
When all of mankind reveals its truest potential
And there is sympathy for the suffering
Yes, there is sympathy for those who are suffering
And the world embraces peace and love and mercy
Instead of power and fear
And as sure as I'm standing here
I swear it really does appear that a change comes over us
Yes, some kind of change comes over us
And it's glimpsed for one shining moment
And this change feels like a change that's real
But then it passes along with the season
And then we just go back to the way we were
Yes, we just go back to the way we were
Say it isn't so
Tell me I'm not just a dreamer
I'm talking with a friend and he knows how it ends
He says it's easier, that's just the way we are
That's human nature and that's just the way we are
Oh, say it isn't so!
