starryeyezmel Posted November 2, 2007 Report Share Posted November 2, 2007 I know its a little bit early to think about Christmas music but one of my coworkers gave me the new Mannheim Steamroller Christmas Songs album and i love it. I can not wait for Christmas to come. I still cant believe that Mannheim is still putting out Christmas albums and they just keep getting better. I recommend it to anyone who is a fan of Christmas or Mannheim, i also found a link to let it snow for anyone interested. Link Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheLizard Posted November 2, 2007 Report Share Posted November 2, 2007 I like Mannheim Steamroller, but they sure put on a damn boring concert. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Ry 71 Posted November 3, 2007 Report Share Posted November 3, 2007 I know its a little bit early to think about Christmas music... And it's too early to think about Christmas presents, and too early to think about Christmas decorations, and too early for Christmas commercials, and Christmas books, and tributes, and...

blue_n_white Posted November 6, 2007 Report Share Posted November 6, 2007 Way too early for Christmas everything. By the time Christmas finally gets here I can't wait for it to be over. When I was a kid growing up in the 60's and 70's,the tree never went up before like 2 weeks before Christmas and I don't remember doing any Christmas shopping untill after Thanksgiving.And today,Thanksgiving is all but forgotten becaused it's now included into the "holiday season". Bah humbug!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Otokichi Posted November 8, 2007 Report Share Posted November 8, 2007 Drop by http://last.fm and check out the "Christmas" group. At least one poster admits to "roasting chestnuts over an open fire" on November first. Since the stores are playing "Jingle Bell Rock," 'tis the season for Noeltunes. (The local Borders has a whole section set aside for "Christmas music," instead of the usual "2 for $22" music CD overstock!) On this computer, Mason Williams' "Greensleeves" occasionally plays when iTunes is set to "random." So go for it, and watch out for sharpened-Holly-stake-bearing Scrooges!

Uncle Joe Posted November 27, 2007 Report Share Posted November 27, 2007 If Rockapella is performing anywhere near you make sure to see them. They're an acapela group that does doo wop, rock, jazz, pop and you name it. Their Holiday Concert is fantastic. You'll have a ball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jenny Posted November 28, 2007 Report Share Posted November 28, 2007 I like Christmas music, but not when radio stations start playing all Christmas music 24/7 from thanksgiving on. I like it when we're decorating the tree or opening gifts and I'm sure I'll enjoy it at my kid's Christmas concert, but not all day every day.

Ken Posted November 28, 2007 Report Share Posted November 28, 2007 Well, it sure is nice down here this time of year The tourists are tanned and there's holiday cheer Here comes Santa Claus, havin' a tropical Christmas I'm mailin' out cards to the great frozen North Sweatin' from the energy I could force In jingle bells, havin' a tropical Christmas And when the Sun sets down in the ocean We'll decorate the palm trees We'll mingle ornaments with coconut lights Then we'll go caroling through paradise And thank Baby Jesus for this tropical silent night First we'll open our presents, then we'll lay on the beach Later we'll call, see what relatives we reach In their winter wonderland, havin' a tropical Christmas And when the Sun sets down in the ocean We'll decorate the palm tree We'll mingle ornaments with coconut lights Then we'll go caroling through paradise And thank Baby Jesus for this tropical silent night Hey Kris Kringle, when you empty your sleigh Stop by and kick back, with us a few days You and Rudolph, havin' a tropical Christmas We'll build a snowman in sand, havin' a tropical Christmas Grandma wants a new bikini, havin' a tropical Christmas Y'all come on down, we'll have a tropical Christmas Bring your suntan oil, havin' a tropical Christmas Let their be peace on Earth, havin' a tropical Christmas Bring some surfboards for the kids .............., Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tenacious_Peaches Posted December 21, 2007 Report Share Posted December 21, 2007 Santastic III in 3-D is currently rocking my holiday world. Excellent, excellent mashups of holiday and non-holiday songs. My favorites are "You Shook Me All Noel" and "Safety Bells". Tee hee. I got the link because I joined the mailing list of Go Home Productions on our very own blind-fitter's recommendation. GHP is represented by the very odd, yet immensely hummable, "Elvis' Christmas Turkey". God bless us, everyone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otokichi Posted December 24, 2007 Report Share Posted December 24, 2007 For those of you who haven't been good girls this year, Joan Osborne asked Santa the question last year: What Do bad Girls Get? Well the holidays are coming And it has got me so upset See, I got a burning question And nobody's answered yet Good girls get toys for christmas But Santa, what do bad girls get? Do you cross me off your list? For flirtin' and for teasin'? Yes, I pouted and I cried But I had a real good reason Oh, I got a burnin' question Nobody's answered yet Good girls get toys for christmas But Santa, what do bad girls get? Nice and easy now Alright, alright Mmm, well you got your calculator You're countin' up my sins But Santa please consider How much worse I could've bee Oh I got a burnin' question Tell me once, you know I won't forget Good girls get toys for Christmas But Santa, what do bad girls get What do bad girls get?

Lucky Posted December 25, 2007 Report Share Posted December 25, 2007 In all of my 50 years, this is the first Christmas Holiday I have spent away from my family and children. I'm well on my way to making new memories, but I've found that the music is what brings all the old and lovely memories flooding back. Sappy, I know, but here are some of my favorite memories, songs that have become traditional Christmas favorites for me, both from my childhood, and as an adult (are we really grown up at Christmas Time?).... Please Come Home For Christmas ~ The Eagles Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer ~ Gene Autry Sleigh Ride ~ Johnny Mathis (oh lord, this looks like back home...) The Chipmunk Song (Christmas Don't Be Late) ~ Alvin & The Chipmunks (this is the original. The very first album I ever owned. I was 5) The Christmas Song ~ Nat King Cole Snoopy vs The Red Baron ~ The Royal Guardsmen Rockin' Around The Christmas Tree ~ Brenda Lee Merry Christmas!!

Jenny Posted January 2, 2008 Report Share Posted January 2, 2008 My daughter loves the Chipmunk Christmas song. I used to be on the verge of hating it, but hearing her sing it has endeared it to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
