[gittangran]

O Holy Night with Birgit Nilsson
Jingle Bells with Barbra
O come, o come Emmanuel with Bette Midler (a new favourite!)

 

[theworldwithout]

The only Christmas songs I really like are Silver Bells, Noel and Smells Like the Night Before Christmas (A version performed like Nirvana's Smells Like Teen Spirit)...But there is a fair amount of parodies I like:
I Am Santa Claus
The Twelve Pains of Christmas
The Restroom Door Said "Gentlemen"
Foreigners...and alot of others by Bob Rivers.

Rockin’ Around The Christmas Tree by Brenda Lee

I'm a young man who mainly listens to Pop/R&B/Hip-Hop music. I believe that there can be holiday songs out there sung by snobbish “divas” that are way overplayed on certain radio stations, but I think “Rockin’ Around The Christmas Tree” is the only holiday song sung by a Pop music female recording artist that’s considered classic today.

Brenda Lee’s character is genuine and she’s never pretended to be someone sweet and demure because she isn’t a manipulative snobbish “diva”. She’s a darling diva and that’s why people consider her hit songs classic.

Christmas Wrapping, The Waitresses'

"Bah, humbug!" No, that's too strong
'Cause it is my favorite holiday
But all this year's been a busy blur
Don't think I have the energy

To add to my already mad rush
Just 'cause it's 'tis the season.
The perfect gift for me would be
Completions and connections left from

Last year, ski shop,
Encounter, most interesting.
Had his number but never the time
Most of '81 passed along those lines.

So deck those halls, trim those trees
Raise up cups of Christmas cheer,
I just need to catch my breath,
Christmas by myself this year.

Calendar picture, frozen landscape,
Chilled this room for twenty-four days,
Evergreens, sparkling snow
Get this winter over with!

Flashback to springtime, saw him again,
Would've been good to go for lunch,
Couldn't agree when we were both free,
We tried, we said we'd keep in touch.

Didn't, of course, 'til summertime,
Out to the beach to his boat could I join him?
No, this time it was me,
Sunburn in the third degree.

Now the calendar's just one page
And, of course, I am excited
Tonight's the night, but I've set my mind
Not to do too much about it.

Merry Christmas! Merry Christmas!
But I think I'll miss this one this year.
Merry Christmas! Merry Christmas!
But I think I'll miss this one this year.
Merry Christmas! Merry Christmas!
But I think I'll miss this one this year.
Merry Christmas! Merry Christmas!
But I think I'll miss this one this year.

Hardly dashing through the snow
Cause I bundled up too tight
Last minute have-to-do's
A few cards a few calls
'Cause it's r-s-v-p
No thanks, no party lights
It's Christmas Eve, gonna relax
Turned down all of my invites.

Last fall I had a night to myself,
Same guy called, halloween party,
Waited all night for him to show,
This time his car wouldn't go,

Forget it, it's cold, it's getting late,
Trudge on home to celebrate
In a quiet way, unwind
Doing Christmas right this time.

A&P has provided me
With the world's smallest turkey
Already in the oven, nice and hot
Oh damn! Guess what I forgot?

So on with the boots, back out in the snow
To the only all-night grocery,
When what to my wondering eyes should appear
In the line is that guy I've been chasing all year!

"I'm spending this one alone," he said.
"Need a break; this year's been crazy."
I said, "Me too, but why are you?
You mean you forgot cranberries too?"

Then suddenly we laughed and laughed
Caught on to what was happening
That Christmas magic's brought this tale
To a very happy ending! "

Merry Christmas! Merry Christmas!
Couldn't miss this one this year!
Merry Christmas! Merry Christmas!
Couldn't miss this one this year!
