Three outstanding selections. Lennon's carol is a Christmas classic. It's one of a few Christmas songs I play throughout the year.

Remember when you first heard these lyrics? I know they terrified the hell out of me. Who is this guy? Why is he free to roam around the December countryside terrifying little kids? You're damn right I couldn't sleep Christmas Eve; I wasn't gonna let that maniac get me!:

You better watch out
You better not cry
You better not pout
I'm telling you why
Santa Claus is coming to town

He's making a list,
Checking it twice;
Gonna find out who's naughty or nice.
Santa Claus is coming to town

He sees you when you're sleeping
He knows when you're awake
He knows if you've been bad or good
So be good for goodness sake ... or else!

Darlene Love had such a great voice.

Oh yea Oli. I love that song too. smile


A way newer song that I like more and more is Mariah Carey's "All I Want For Christmas." It's on my favorite Christmas song list.

Not exactly a traditional christmas song but it always gets a laugh out of me.

Now 76, Darlene will be singing this for the 28th and last consecutive year on the Letterman show on Friday, December 19.

Edit: Guess I should add a song:

O Holy Night - someone sang it in church when I was young and it made a lasting impression on me. I really prefer the more religious ones, like O Come All Ye Faithful, Hark the Herald, Joy to the World, etc..

And I never tire of watching A Charlie Brown Christmas!

My favorite Christmas song is whatever my grand daughter Mia is singing when she comes into my house off the school bus or coming back from Religion class. I stop what ever I am doing to listen to her sing. I love her voice I can listen to her sing all day what a good little person she is.

The late Minnie Riperton's pop music career began in the 1960's with Rotary Connection, a psychedelic/R&B band in Chicago. This is called "Christmas Love" from the band's attempt at a Christmas album.

[video:youtube]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=er13cNfTYLQ[/video]

And my favorite from The Waitresses...it's "Christmas Wrapping"

[video:youtube]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZZXqg4Gruls[/video]

There's also a BoDeans Christmas song that's pretty good though I can't find it on YouTube.

Happy Holidays to everyone on the BB!

James Taylor - God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen

James Taylor is one of my musical heroes. On his website he gives lessons and other little ditties. James is one of the few singer-songwriters whose guitar playing is integral to his "sound".

I saw her Christmas show last week. Shes still amazing.


All God's children are not beautiful. Most of God's children are, in fact, barely presentable.


I never met anyone who didn't have a very smart child. What happens to these children, you wonder, when they reach adulthood?

My favorite Christmas song is "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas". Love the little bit you hear Johnny Fontane sing in The Godfather. Anyone happen to know whether Al Martino actually ever recorded that song or not?
