Swaller dollar cauliflower alley-garoo!

Don't we know archaic barrel
Lullaby Lilla Boy, Louisville Lou?

Boola boola Pensacoola hullabaloo!

Polly wolly cracker 'n' too-da-loo!
Donkey Bonny brays a carol,
Antelope Cantaloupe, 'lope with you!

Hunky Dory's pop is lolly gaggin' on the wagon,

Harum scarum five alarm bung-a-loo!

Hinky dinky dink an' polly voo!

Double-bubble, toyland trouble! Woof, woof, woof!
Tizzy seas on melon collie!
Dibble-dabble, scribble-scrabble! Goof, goof, goof!

    Hard to pick just one favorite, but I guess mine would be "Silent Night" (in German, preferably). Runners up are "O Holy Night", "Away In A Manger " (any of the 3 tunes), and "O Come, All Ye Faithful" ("Adeste, Fideles"). Others in the running are the Coventry Carol ("Lullay, Thou Little Tiny Child") and "Infant Holy, Infant Lowly" (a Polish carol). However, I like most of the traditional carols with a religious theme.

    For secular songs, I prefer Bing Crosby's "White Christmas" and Gene Autry's "Rudolph, the Red Nosed Reindeer" as favorites; Mel Tormé's "The Christmas Song" is also in the running.

    I think my favorite is "What Child is This?" With "Angels We Have Heard on High," and "Oh Holy Night" as extremely close seconds.




    “It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.”

    For some dang reason I can't seem to post embedded YouTube videos on this forum.

    My favorite Christmas song for the past few years is by Francesca Battistelli: "You're Here."

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bMC_z3WOgao

    Lyrics:

    Hold on now, I gotta take a deep breath
    I don`t know what to say when I look in your eyes
    You made the world before I was born
    Here I am holding you in my arms tonight

    Noel, noel, Jesus our Emmanuel
    You`re here, i`m holding you so near
    I`m starring into the face of my saviour, king and creator
    You could`ve left us on our own, but you`re here

    Don`t know how long i`m gonna have you for
    But i`ll be watching when you change the world
    I Look at your hand, they`re still so small
    Someday you`re going to stretch them out and save us all

    Noel, noel, God with us Emmanuel
    You`re here, i`m holding you so near
    I`m staring into the face of my saviour, king and creator
    They could've left us on our own, but you`re here you`re here

    Someday i`m gonna look back on this
    The night that God became a baby boy
    Someday you're gonna go home again,
    But you leave your spirit and flood the world with joy

    You`d be here, i`m holding you so near
    I`m staring into the face of my saviour, king and creator
    They could've left me on my own, but you`re here you`re here
    Hallelujah you`re here hallelujah
    You`re here




    You can't truly call yourself "peaceful" unless you are capable of great violence. If you're not capable of great violence, you're not peaceful, you're harmless.

    Any other favorites?

    I've learned to play O Holy Night, God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen and Feliz Navidad. Plan to learn Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas.
