    Fave Christmas songs!!

    My all time favorite has to be "Christmas Wrapping" by the Waitresses. Gosh I love that song!

    Saw Hall & Oates in concert last year where I worked part time (The State Theatre in Easton, PA), and their "Jingle Bell Rock" was great! Love those two guys!!!

    I'm such an 80's girl, lol! If you don't have The Big 80's Christmas cd, and you love the 80's, you gotta get it!

    O Holy Night - any version sung by a good voice. For you classical trivia fans, music was written by Adophe Adam, who composed the score for the ballet 'Giselle'.

    Waltz of the Snowflakes, Nutcracker Suite, Tchaikovsky - the little flute chirps after the intro sound to me just like the first few flakes of snow that flit by!

    Silent Night - version by Elisabeth Schwarzkopf, accompanied by violin and guitar (the original arrangement since composer and choir director Franz Gruber found keys were not working on the church organ). She harmonizes with herself ...this is such a simple, sweet and genuine version - I had tears just streaming down my face when I heard it. If you can listen to it - and if your eyes don't sting just a bit - IMO you'd have to be a rock!

    ETA: Jenn, I am an 80's gal too....but more like the 1880's!
