What Is Your Favorite Christmas Song

There are some classics I have always loved, Little Drummer Boy, for one, but for the last few years, this has been my favorite. What is yours?

For me I'd have to say "I'll Be Home For Christmas" by Bing Crosby, mainly because of a story attached to it.

My father always talked about being involved in The Battle of the Bulge during WWII, and sitting there freezing his a$$ off in a foxhole and hearing that song being played. He said it was his lowest point during the war and whenever that song would come on he would get tears in his eyes.

I should have known that you would have a favorite from Bruce! Actually, it isn't too bad, would be better if you were singing it though.

It Came Upon A Midnight Clear is my favorite to play on the piano, but listening to would have to be Celine Dion's Oh Holy Night. Gives me goosebumps everytime. Josh Grobin does good too.

Yes, Elvis is a classic in our house too. This one though, has to be my alltime favorite for Elvis Christmas songs. I will always remember me and my dad lipsynching to this song and dancing around like fools.
