Carolling season

December 10 2015

'Tis the season - carols are playing everywhere. My daughter asked me the other day if I'd heard Kate Miller-Heidke's new Christmas song, and she played it for me when I hadn't. I was expecting something sweet and lovely - instead I had years of laughter rolling down my cheeks. You really need to search for "Growing a beard downstairs for Christmas", it's fabulous. So I was wondering, what are your favourite Christmas songs? Mine is White Wine in the Sun by Tim Minchin, and I love the Pentatonix Christmas album. Tripod's I hate your family is fab too. So help me fill up my play list this year - what seasonal songs are on rotation at your place? - Posted from rhpmobile

    Pentatonix's Christmas album is also on my list. My youngest loves them too. You gotta love the classics though 😃 Bing Crosby's White Christmas and Silver Bells will always be a favourite of mine. Dean Martin 's It's Beginning to Look A Lot Like Christmas Frank Sinatra's Let it Snow! Let it Snow! Let it Snow! being another old-time favourite. Others on my playlist - Little Drummer Boy Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas Jingle Bells Wham - Last Christmas Band-Aid - Do They Know It's Christmas Hall & Oates - Jingle Bell Rock Eartha Kitt - Santa Baby Mariah Carey - All I want for Christmas is You 🎄Merry Christmas everyone🎄 - Posted from rhpmobile

    I know, it cracks me up just thinking about it! Ms grinch, you really need to listen to Kate's song that I mentioned in the first place. I think you'll appreciate it, even despite your moving of Christmas carols. xoxo - Posted from rhpmobile

    A great song taking the piss, but as Homer would say "It's funny because it's true" and that be a truly sad thing. Loudon Wainright's 'Suddenly It's Christmas'

    Has always been a bit of a tradition for me to listen to John Lennon and Cat Stevens at Christmas.
