I think O Holy Night is lovely. But for pop commercial I like Sleigh Ride. I don't care who did it. I like the Ronettes version but it doesn't matter, it's so good it works for everyone. |

| There is a Christmas song called "One Star" by an artist named Cherie Call. I heard it a couple of years ago at a Christmas concert that featured mostly local artists. It is my new favorite. I think you can listen to a sample of it on itunes. I love most of the songs on my Carpenters Christmas album. I have always loved Silent Night, and Away in a Manger. My kid's favorites are Rudolf and Jingle Bells. My husband is from Puerto Rico and thinks our Christmas music is boring. PuertoRican Christmas music is very festive with a lot of rythym. There is nothing like Christmas there---its a big party everywhere you go for like a month. |

| O Holy Night. Everytime we sing that at Church, I get choked up and can't sing. It's a good thing they won't let me in the choir. |
|
| Favorite -- Carol of the Bells. Such a joyful song! Worst -- Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer -- whoever wrote that crap deserves the same fate! |

| "Most hated - I want a hippopatamous for Christmas -and- Walking 'round in womens' underwear" Duane, SAY WHAT??!!?? I've never heard those songs. I don't think they play them here in California. Sounds like the ultimate in "Redneck Christmas Songs", LOL! O Holy Night is my favorite. I prefer to hear it sung by someone with a fabulous voice and great range. (not me) |

| One favorite here is Johnny Cash's version of "Little Dummer Boy". But then, who could ever say that Bing Crosby's "White Christmas" isn't the all-time favorite? Martin |

| For my "churchy" mood, I really enjoy Advent hymns - O Come, O Come Emmanuel. Also like services that start out with Once in Royal David City. For listening at home, we've enjoyed George Winston's "December" for many years - also season theme piano music by Liz Story and David Lanz, as well as the first 3 or 4 Windham Hill Winter Solstice and Celtic Christmas CDs.

| Barb, I kid you not. I didn't know either of those songs were regional...and no..they don't play them on the country station LOL! Walking 'round in womens' underwear is sung to the tune of 'Walking in a winter wonderland' and the hippo song is sung by a little kid...I think a girl...but like 5 years old so it's hard to tell. I should probably call Bully to let him know he can have his CD back anytime :-) Dawg |

| My favorites change from year to year. Bing Crosby's "White Christmas" is a classic that will always rank high. This year, my favorites are Bob Seager's "Drummer Boy," and Burl Ives' "Holly Jolly Christmas." Felis Navidad y Prospero Ano, Bill |

| Yeah, the barking dogs...truly a classic! I love the rendition of 'Little Drummer Boy' by Audio Adrenaline...it really ROCKS. Couldn't find a wavefile to share with you guys. And a Christmas song that's quirky, (keith might enjoy it) there is a ska rendition of 'Deck the Halls' by OC Supertones...ska, la, la, la, la... barb |
|
| LOL Duane! Merry Christmas from the family is a good one for sure. For a funny Christmas song I like "Holy $#!t it's Christmas" by Red Peters. I also like "Father Christmas" by the Kinks! Merry Christmas everyone! |
