A nasty that will make your computer play that song every minute of every day until you give up and reformat your hard drive. That's the ticket.

Why would it be weird?
I read the story of Hanukah to PE last week. He didn't think I was weird, then again, he did fall asleep...

Silver Bells, hmmm...
My mother will never let me live down the Christmas performance of '74. That was he year I learned Silver Bells, and my Sunday school class sang it for the church. We were each given a bell to ring during the song. Evidently, I clobbered the poor boy standing behind me with my bell while we were singing.
Oh, grand!
I remember being the angel in a Christmas play when I was, oh, five. I worked so hard for the part - the only one for my age group with a solo - and then because my grandmother was in charge of the play, I only got to sing it one night of the two that we did the play. And the other girl messed up.
After that I didn't do many Christmas plays. I was Mary in a silent nativity one year and I'm just amazed I didn't get zotted for that. Afterwards I was graduated to the adult choir and learned the joys of alto.
oh dear... myfirstfunkle makes a nice keyword
I am not sure what itis about music, but for some reason, it stuck with me.
This is the first time in my life that I have not been in some sort of choir. Seriesly. Been in choir since I was 3. My dad used to have music nights like the ones Rosie has/had. There would be several guitar players, a fiddle or two, a banjo, and at least one of 'em would sing. My dad was ALWAYS trying to get me to sing with 'em. 'Course, I should have, but never did. I was always too embarrassed.
You only got four. Not a funkle.
I'm not in a choir right now and I miss it. My family is a very sing-ish family. We always have music on in the car, or at home, or we just randomly sing. I never realized that other people didn't do that until I was sixteen or so. They're missing a lot.
Mom and I used to sing Amazing Grace while we did the dishes. She did melody and I did harmony.
I think I have elf-boy ready to start singing in the car :-)
'course, I have most of Handel's Messiah memorized cuz we did that one every Christmas in church.
No better way to pass time in the car than by singing along!
Of course, in our family, there's almost always someone who doesn't like a singer. Sister doesn't like Carolyn Arends, my brother's the only one who likes Steven Curtis Chapman, Mom's driven us nuts with too much Fernando Ortega but she doesn't like our Smalltown Poets cds...
At least everyone likes Third Day!
I like Selah.
I don't know their stuff at all, I must admit. I'm rather conservative about trying new artists - mostly I steal my dad's cds. I like his taste in music much better than my mother's.
I think it is exactly that, OB! If I remember right, it is a video of the 'Making of' the Lord of the Rings Symphony. That's why I've asked for the Deluxe EE for Christmas! Clare and I went down to Hartford in September to hear the Hartford Symphony and Chorus when they performed it. It was very nice, and I'm just fascinated by the process of the creation of the music. All three are such wonderful scores and PERFECT for each particular movie.
