The kids are practising for the school Nativity. Hence the inspiration. Even the hardest hearts among you must have a favourite that they love to hear/sing at this time of year
Mine is 'Oh Little Town of Bethlehem'... NOT the Cliff Richard version...

Ahhhh... nostalgia. I must say some of the songs they have to learn bear no relation to the carols I know and love.

Fact is, the old hymns get away with it because they were written by decent composers, not happy-clappy chumps with acoustic guitars and a bontempi keyboards
Hahaha!

But when it comes to non-religious Christmas songs, The Christmas Song and Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas never fail to tug at my heartstrings.
O Holy Night
The Little Drummer Boy
- the great Sir Leo Harrison
LOL! That's my new sig right there
- the great Sir Leo Harrison
and
Silent Night by Stevie Nicks. Makes me cry every time!
"To is a preposition.
Come is a verb"
Carol of the Birds
How Far Is It To Bethlehem?
War Is Over (I know it's not a carol, but it's one of my favorite Christmas songs)
I love Silent Night
"Its a secret to everybody."
Whatever you think of em, this is a good rendition:
