Christmas Songs
« on: December 20, 2023, 10:16:17 PM »

Does anyone else like putting on playlists of Christmas songs/carols at this time of year?  I’m a bit of a sucker for them. There’s nothing like songs about hot fires and sleigh rides when I’m sitting in 30 degree (Celsius) heat.

A nice one from the Moodies last studio album.

That's a poignant song and a beautiful video, Moogmodule; thanks for sharing it.

I myself love Christmas music, although we have always stuck with the traditional standards like this one. (It has to be Bing's version, of course.)

every year I make a playlist, like Normandie, I do classics for the most part, plus Wonderful Christmas Time, Happy Xmas, war is over and Santa Claus is Coming to Town by Bruce.

My wife and i were laughing about Christmas songs because the classics were classics when we were growing up in the 70's so wow...

The slade and Wizzard ones feature on mine as well. I especially like the Wizard one as it sounds like they just rewrote See My Baby Jive into a Christmas song.

I think John's was the only song of his with a nicked melody. Pretty good going John.  ;D
