MY WISH LIST Yes, you can buy my silence or just get me something because you've enjoyed my blog content and feel guilty for reading it for free. You can even buy me something if you hate my blog - your punishment in this way is more than I can stand. Or, you can just look through and wish along with me.

Christmas Songers

Some of my most favorite Top Seven Classic Christmas songers (singers) of all time are ... **drum-roll please**.....
    1. Nat Cole
    2. Hoyt Axton
    3. Burl Ives
    4. Dean Martin
    5. Bing Crosby (Only his x-mas songs. Nothing else)
    6. Jose Feliciano
    7. John Denver (yeah - his x-mas songs are smooth & awesome)
The above named are linked for those who draw a blank on these celebs
 
        I hate the newer stuff (with some exceptions) and just wont listen to it unless I'm in a place of business or someone elses house whereby I have no choice.  Have you heard some of the modern country singers destroy the old classics? Or modern rock performers or - well - lets not even talk Rap which is crap.
        So whats in your wallet? - errr - I mean, what's your favorite top seven CLASSIC, Christmas Singers list? Consider yourself tagged.. on a voluntary basis only.
 
 FOR YOUR ENTERTAINMENT: Goto  Jib-Jab  and click on the newest animation/video "Year End Round Up" - its funny and worth the long download wait if you're a dial-upper like me.

I love the old stuff, but there's a lot of the new stuff that I love too. The reason that I listen to the new stuff more than the old is acuzza the old stuff makes me cry thinking about people that are no longer here.

I know, I know.

Santa Baby
written by J. Javits and P. Springer
originally sung by Ertha Kitt
Time: 2:30
----------
Santa baby, slip a sable under the tree, for me
I've been an awful good girl
Santa baby, and hurry down the chimney tonight

Santa baby, an out-of-space convertible too, light blue
I'll wait up for you dear
Santa baby, and hurry down the chimney tonight

Think of all the fun I've missed
Think of all the fellas that I haven't kissed
Next year I could be oh so good
If you'd check off my Christmas list
Boo doo bee doo

Santa honey, I wanna yacht and really that's
Not a lot
I've been an angel all year
Santa baby, and hurry down the chimney tonight

Santa cutie, there's one thing I really do need, the deed
To a platinum mine
Santa cutie, and hurry down the chimney tonight

Santa baby, I'm filling my stocking with a duplex, and checks
Sign your 'X' on the line
Santa baby, and hurry down the chimney tonight

Come and trim my Christmas tree
With some decorations bought at Tiffany's
I really do believe in you
Let's see if you believe in me
Boo doo bee doo

Santa baby, forgot to mention one little thing, a ring
I don't mean a phone
Santa baby, and hurry down the chimney tonight

Hurry down the chimney tonight
Hurry down the chimney tonight

Oh yeah, Nat Cole's "Christmas Song" is an all time fave. Jose is okay, but they play his "Feliz Navidad" SO much around here, I've had my fill!

As far as the more modern songers, I like some Garth Brooks at Christmas, although I'm not much of a C/W listener.

What? No Alvin and the Chipmunks?

The only addition I would make would be the kids in "A Charlie Brown Christmas".

I think you pretty much covered all of my favorites, too.

Though I also like John Lennon's "Do they know it's Christmas?" which I guess some would consider to be one of those modern singers.

I concurr with your list 100% - except I actually prefer Mel Torme's version of "The Christmas Song " to Nat Cole's.

I also love most Carpetners Christmas Tunes, esp. "Merry Christmas, Darling".
