Favorite Christmas Songs

[imjustlori]

The Husband and I were perusing our (my) EXTENSIVE holiday music collection, discussing which were our favorites. I've been known to buy a two-disc set because they had ONE SONG on it that I had to have (the World's Smallest Turkey, and yes, we found the cd, yay!).

There's one song we're still looking for, that we swear that we own but can't find--Sting doing I Saw Three Ships. I KNOW he did it, it's not showing on any CDs (Christmas or his), so we're thinking it's a hidden track somewhere.

To top things off, when I'm in a store, and they're playing this stuff, I'm singing along. If the arrangement is good enough, dancing too. I love it, and people think I'm crazy and leave me alone, so it's all good.

Anyway, what's your favorite song for this time of year?

And for a truly screwy song, "Christmas is Revolting (and So Are the Elves)", by the Tuna Observatory (which was Chicago radio personality Kevin Matthews and anyone else he may have roped into doing it) from 1983. This is also probably one of the rarest songs out there - it's been played on Dr. Demento, but except for a vinyl 45, it's never been released (and I'm not sure that 45 was ever properly released).

I have one.
