Your Favorite Christmas Carol?
« on: December 07, 2016, 12:40:01 PM »
As I sat here working on bills, reading Facebook posts, posts in these here forums, and so much more I saw a post that made me want to ask an interesting question for the holiday season.

What is everyone's favorite Christmas carol and why?

Mine would be "The Little Drummer Boy" and "Mary Did You Know?"

Drummer Boy was because of that old claymation show and the thought that even the least could give of what they had and it being more than enough. I actually think of this scene every time I hear the song:

Mary Did You Know was because of the line about kissing His face. Here is a interesting version from The Singing Contractors:

Merry Christmas all!

That is hilarious!  As a former children's ministry teacher and part of the puppet ministry at that time this was great to see.   :laugh:

Thanks for posting!

The incomparable Nat King Cole:

"It is better to avoid than to run; better to run than to de-escalate; better to de-escalate than to fight; better to fight than to die. The very essence of self-defense is a thin list of things that might get you out alive when you are already screwed." – Rory Miller

Wow, that was a great look back in time to when they really knew how to sing a tune. Thanks for posting that, Lorimor.
