Michael's Essential Christmas Songs as I am moving, I have my Christmas songs turned WAYYYY UP. I thought I'd share with you the songs that get me the most in the spirit. :) 1. Sleigh Ride -- The Boston Pops 2. Let it Snow -- Kenny G 3. Winter Wonderland -- Kenny G 4. Noel -- Kenny G 5. Carol of the Bells -- Mannheim Steamroller [not, of course, to be confused with Carol of the SUDL] 6. Hallelujah Chorus 7. Oh Christmas Tree -- Kenny G 8. Theme from "National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation" -- Mavis Staples 9. My Only Wish This Year -- (I blush to admit this) -- Britney Spears 10. Last Christmas -- George Michael 11. All I Want For Christmas Is You -- Vince Vance & the Valiants (not to be confused with All I Want for Christmas Is You by Mariah Carey) 12. Step Into Christmas -- Elton John 13. It Must Have Been the Mistletoe -- Barbra Streisand [but avoid the hell out of Babs singing "Jingle Bells," especially the part where she starts singing jinglebelljinglebelljingjangjock! Hideous was invented for this rendition.] 14. Santa Claus is Coming To Town -- Bruce Springsteen 15. Feliz Navidad -- Jose Feliciano [I think the "wa ha!" is the first appearance of the yo quiero taco bell dog. I'm just kidding. Kind of.] 16. Hey Santa -- Wilson Phillips 17. All I Want For Christmas Is You -- Mariah Carey (not to be confused with All I Want for Christmas Is You by Vince Vance & the Valiants (another great song of hers is "Christmas (Baby Please Come Home)" 18. Twelve Days of the Orchestra -- "six drummers drumming/five golden strings/four clarinets/three french horns/two baritone bassoons/and a bell high up in a pear tree." 19. Angels We Have Heard on High -- the Boston Pops (I think) 20. Joy To The World -- the Boston Pops (I think) 21. You're A Mean One, Mr. Grinch -- Boris Karloff (all the tenderness of a seasick crocodile) 22. Deck The Halls -- Trans-Siberian Orchestra 23. The Twelve Days of Christmas -- I love this song, but I need a version with a chorus. Someone help??? 24. The March of the Kings -- Trans-Siberian Orchestra 25. Jesu Joy of Man's Desiring -- I have it by a brass quintet. I also love Josh Groban's rendition 26. The Twelve Days After Christmas -- "The third day after Christmas, my mother caught the croup/I had to use the three French hens/to make some chicken soup/The four calling birds were a big mistake/Oh their language was obscene/The five gold rings were completely fake/And they turned my fingers green/The sixth day after Christmas, the six laying geese wouldn't lay/I gave the whole darn gaggle to the A.S.P.C.A." 27. Christmas Canon -- Trans Siberian Orchestra -- AWESOME!!! There's also a great medley or two by the Boston Pops, but I can't off the top of my head come up with the name. But this should get you started as you trim the tree, deck the halls, or pack up your apartment. Oh, wait, that's me. :)
