This is an hour long, but even a few minutes of Gregorian chants strike a special chord...these are medieval carols https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XuvWMNXn6vI

2009 Christmas Tree Pictures..everyone chip in!
Q
Comments (81)
Let me preface this by saying the picture quality below is really, really bad. Unfortunately, they're all I've got with me! I should also say that I know I'm slightly late to the party. We started dismantling yesterday and I couldn't bear the thought of taking everything down w/o getting some pics first. We actually had two trees, one real and one artificial. The real tree was so dried out by yesterday it was...well, let's just say it wasn't ready for it's close up. Anyway... Here's the street-facing artificial tree (as you can see we can't fit a star/angel/ribbon on top). At first I was upset about that, but the starlessness has kind of grown on me. And here's a gratuitous shot of my favorite flowers in the world - tulips. I was absolutely delighted to see them back in the grocery store right before we hosted our family Christmas Party on the day after Christmas. So, I splurged and paid supermarket prices for them - and they were worth it! This is the flower arrangement a very sweet friend of the family brought me. I love it. I've been in denial about getting rid of it because it's so damn pretty. And a close up of our mantel. Pretty self explanatory. Thanks for indulging me :)

My father was a chef way back when French cuisine was the thing. He came home one day with a set of castanets that were some sort of holiday party favor. We put them in the tree. I have them. They are all beat up. I must have played with them as a child. I treasure them. I gave the mask ornament to my daughter the year she won in an art show in middle school with her mask. ETA. This is the driest, droopiest tree we ever had. It was slim pickings this year. I keep having to move ornaments around. Really...it’s a perfect 2020 tree.

And her version of Mariah Carey's All I want for Christmas is you

Grew up in a French speaking household. I love it. It reminds me of the 60 French Girls Christmas album my parents had. Can't be found online or I'd share that. Merry Christmas everybody! Better get cracking in the kitchen!

Pro tip: Do not listen to "O Holy Nightmare" and expect to be able to hear a nice version of the original like the one below, without the memory of the former intruding.

I only just noticed this was started 12 months ago! But since Lars resurrected it, I guess it's okay :-)

Here's another favorite of mine, the song, the singer, and the cute video:

Oh boy, I don't know where to start...lol. I have a LOT of Christmas playlists. I'm surprised that a lot of what has already been posted is new to me. This has become one of my personal favorites for the past few years.

Don't forget to check out Part I from last year.

I did not want to start a new Christmas music thread this year since we had a good one last year, and so I revived Part II here, which only had 12 posts at the time.

I watched Santa Claus Conquers the Martians tonight on Elvira's Movie Macabre tonight again, which had this song, which I posted last year

Thanks for clarifying, Lars - I was a bit confused 😃

Here are a few faves that spring to mind - not sure if it was shared last year, but I was just watching this the other night and I so love this piece of music

Here's another one I love - from the Disney version of Babes In Toyland 1961

Carol, I never saw The Snowman or heard that music either. From 1961 too.

Lat62 - We used to sing all the real carols when I was young. It was much more common - and we just watched Elf. Pure fun.

Not usually played for Christmas but appropriate https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ai3UhslbPOk

Benedictus ... one of those songs that make my socks roll up and down and I could listen to many times and hear something new each time.

Benedictus qui venit in Nomine Domini

Blessed be He that comes in the Name of the Lord.
