Let's see.
Favorites:
1. Christmas Eve In Washington by Maura Sullivan
2. Snoopy And The Red Baron by The Royal Guardsmen
3. Christmas Wrapping by The Waitresses
4. Christmas In Killarney by John Redmond, James Cavanaugh and Frank Weldon
5. Sleigh Ride, the original instrumental version by Leroy Anderson. (I know, this wasn't originally intended to be a Christmas song, but it has grown into one anyway.)
Not so much:
1. Christmas In Sarajevo by Trans-Siberian Orchestra. It is overplayed and sounds like the prelude to an airborne assault in Vietnam.
2. Santa Claus Is Coming To Town by Bruce Springsteen. Again, way overplayed.
3. Christmas Shoes by NewSong. Sorry, but it is just depressing and that is not how I want to feel around the holidays.
4. Jingle Bell Rock by Bobby Helms. I may be stuck in the 80's, but the 50's go a little too far back for me.
5. Any version of Santa Baby.
