Quite enjoyed this treatment of Little Drummer Boy....Just heard it for the first time....

Any other good Christmas songs out there?

Tis the season & the other thread died out....

sorry not for me   prefer the original 

Reminds me of more innocent times.  I can dream all I want but it ain't happening here.  I heard it got down to a tad under 6° C [42° F] in Korat yesterday morning.  15° was enough for me here.

 

 

As for contemporary Christmas music this one is one of the tops.

 

 

My daughter has been singing this since she was two-years-old.  The story goes that people had chipped in back in '53 and actually bought a hippo for the then 13-year-old Gayla Peevey.

 

 

One more for the little tykes.  A classic 1966 Dr. Seuss song.

 

 

 

For myself, nothing will ever beat this for emotion.

 

This aint bad too

 

 

For me this is the best Christmas Song .memory with my Farang dad... i remember when i was a kid,  my dad grab his beer listen to this song and Elton John " Nikita" ...Good Times  :) ...
