Since it's Christmas time...

What is your favorite Christmas Song or Carol. Mine is It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year.

[Karen]

I love too many to pick just one!

My favorite snow-shoveling carol is "In the Deep Midwinter"

I love Silent Night, of course ... and Away in a Manger, and oh ... so many!

I have a lot of favorites, but my all time favorite is I Heard the Bells on Christmas Day. For some reason, I tear up every time I hear it.

O Holy Night - I actually prefer playing it on the piano, but hearing it sung well is breathtaking!

If you really want to get LES, try and find Elisabeth Schwartzkopf singing 'Silent Night' in the original German, with the original instrumentation (guitar and violin?). She harmonizes with herself too. I heard it once many years ago on my car radio and just sat there with tears running down my face. So simple...and extremely beautiful.

One which always gives chills up my spine is: Mary, Did You Know? I prefer the recording by Hayley Westenra. I have it on one of her CDs.

If you don't know it, here is one of several on youtube:

For the most part, if it's done in a traditional style, I like it. I love the classics, performed simply. Carol of the Bells is a favorite. I do like a good "rocking around the Christmas tree", though, too.

I think it is called walking in a winter wonderland.
