Annnnd Your Favorite Holiday Tunes Are . . .


Since it tis the season a lot of different holiday music is being played on the station I listen to I figured I would ask . . . What are your favorite holiday tunes? Since I listen to mostly rock stations mine are:

Feliz Navidad” Jose Feliciano
All I Want for Christmas Is You” Vince Vance and the Valiants
Do They Know It's Christmas?” various artists
White Christmas” Ba Ba Ba Bing Crosby


I corrected my post to Do They Know It's Christmas? as BEBBW reminded me of the naming error.

Yes "Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas" is a good one too. The Carpenters did some very good music.

    Have you seen the Santa Clause with Tim Allen. One of the songs in the beginning!
I saw it a while ago so I don't recall. If I see it again I'll keep me eras open.

    Awful lot of good songs listed. I guess I like most of them until I get tired of hearing them over and over.
Yeah that does happen after a while.

    Yes, you're right it is Do They Know It's Christmas? the various artists got me twisted. I gotta change that.

    I'm such a child of the 80s I used to be able to tell you everyone who played and sang on that song in order. I can still get at least half of them.

    (Now ask me how much I remember about all of this theory I'm supposed to be writing about...)

    After listening to non stop Christmas music at work since Halloween.... I've grown to hate every single Christmas song.
Yeah, I can imagine I worked a XMAS tree lot for 8 (ish) years and that was all that was played over the crappy speakers. It can get really old day after day.

    A Fairytale of New York by The Pogues & Kirsty McCall is a favourite Christmas song of mine.
    I Believe in Father Christmas - Greg Lake
    Happy Xmas, War is Over - John Lennon/Plastic Ono Band
The music man has spoken! Happy Xmas, War is Over - John Lennon/Plastic Ono Band played just after I posted this - good song too.

    But We Are The World isn't a Christmas song. Did you mean Do They Know It's Christmas?

    For me, it ain't really the Christmas Season until I hear the following....

    Christmas Don't Be Late (Alvin and the Chipmunks)
    Christmas (W)Rapping (The Waitresses)
    All That I Want (The Weepies)
    O Holy Night
    Bring a Torch, Jeannette Isabella

    I'm sure I'll think of 5 more as soon as I hit "Post".

    I love Jose Feliciano.

    My favourites are White Christmas, When a Child is born and Little Drummer Boy

Feliciano has a great voice loved his songs since I first heard him.

    All I Want For Christmas Is You ... BY... Vince Vance And The Valiants.

    You got to hear it. It's a totally different song than Mariah's.
    Way better.

    And the video on Tube with Vince in it is pretty entertaining, too.

    The video catches your attention because Vince Vance is the guy that looks like Pee Wee Herman but has hair two feet high. Don't let that distract you from the song.

    You might have to play it twice so you can listen to the song and words better.
    Best X-mas song ever.
The Vince Vance And The Valiants version is waaaaaayyy better and the singer Lisa Layne, totally owns it. She does mostly country from what I've read. The guy is just window dressing for a studio band if I recall correctly.
