"Tell what you do or don't like about this time of year."
Carols make me happy. Right now I'm listening to James Taylor's jazzy version of "Santa Claus Is Coming to Town." He's a new holiday favorite -- I just picked up this CD last year. If you like your holiday music on the mellow side, I recommend James Taylor at Christmas.
I also love listening to Elvis (especially "I'll Be Home for Christmas") and Sinatra ("The First Noel") and loosey-goosey old Dean Martin (he actually sings "Rudy, the red-beaked reindeer") and Streisand ("The Christmas Song").
Most of all, I love Andy Williams at Christmas. I grew up on his family's TV specials, so he's my own, personal, musical Ghost of Christmas Past. I like nothing better this time of year than a "Sleigh Ride" with old Andy.

Nice - you named some of my faves! Brenda Lee is another! Happy Holidays to you and yours!
ReplyDeleteI remember when Andy Williams had his TV show. He was good back then and his songs are still timeless. :)
ReplyDeleteWishing you and yours a very Merry Christmas. :)
