Shame on me: I've never heard that SNL song.

I like Alison Moyet's Coventry Carol, though it's not one of the choices.

Also, is it now, officially, the White House Christmas Tree, or is it still the White House Holiday Tree? Why not the Kwaanza Tree? Or, the Winter Solstice Tree?

I'm sorry, I should clarify: I'm being a SMART ASS. [:)]

Bandaid does it for me. I do like George Michael's Last Christmas though.

Guess that legislative wisdom ranks up there with 'make'em freedom ..aw heck..better change'em back to french fries'

MAS, here's the SNL song. It really needs to be seen, though (couldn't find any pics/vid [xx(]).

Wow, thanks a bunch for that link Dave! Speaking of Saturday Night Live, remember the Adam Sandler thing?

I like those songs a lot Dave.

Also love, "Welcome Christmas" by Lovespirals.

"Jingle Bell Rock" is cute.

David Bowie and Bing Crosby's version of Drummer Boy (Joan Jett too) even though that song annoys me.

I dunno, but this one always gives me the Shiggles (definitely NNW!)[:o)]
