WE’RE BIG FANS of Christmas carols in my family. “Oh Holy Night,” “Little Drummer Boy,” “The 12 Days of Christmas,” you name it, we’ve been singing it this week. And so last night between verses of “Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas,” my mom asked me if I remembered my very first favorite Christmas song. I was stumped at first. And then I remembered “Children Go Where I Send Thee,” and all the many Christmases T and I spent clapping and dancing along (with arguably as much spirit as that little tyke on the right) to the rhythm of that song came back to me. What about you? What was your childhood favorite carol? Current favorite?

Yes I do remember this man from my childhood black and white small TV screen. Thank you for this memory and a good laugh.
When I was little, my dad had one of those huge old console stereo systems with stacks of record albums tucked inside and I will never forget the aqua blue cover of ‘The Christmas Crickets’ – remarkably similar to the Chipmunks in tone. The funny, musty smell of the stereo cabinet and the falsetto of the Crickets are a favorite Christmas musical memory.
Ahhh Tennessee Ernie Ford… almost as good as Perry Como
Silver Bells.
But almost every one is my favorite with the exception of Christmas Shoes. That like Butterfly Kisses has been overplayed on the radio station I listen to until I’m nauseated!
my favorite and most nostalgic Christmas music is from the Ray Coniff Christmas album…listened to that every year of my life!
