Support the artists below by going to the following links: ArtistDirect.com l Amazon.com l Walmart.com l Ticketmaster.com l Google.com l Songfacts.com l Billboard.com l Audiophile.com l Wherehouse.com l Sonique l MTV.com l VH1.com l CMT.com l MuchMusic.com l Audio Realm l MSN Radio l Shout Cast l Launch Music l Live-Radio Net l Christmas By Song O Come All Ye Faithful (Adeste Fideles) This section takes an individual Christmas song and then provides you with as many different artists performing it for you to enjoy. We will not be playing all the artists and versions that we have. We don't have the space, but we feel you'll get enough variations to enjoy yourself. Background Information: The Englishman, John Francis Wade, wrote both the words and the music, Adeste Fideles. The Musical score was first published in 1782 in Samuel Webbe's An Essay on the Church Plain Chant in 1782. John Francis Wade first included it in his own 1751 publication of Cantus Diversi. The lyrics were first published in 1760. If you hear someone using tissues, it's MoJo. This song has watery effects. To our British and Aussie allies, MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Background Info: Joy to the World The words and lyrics of the old Christmas carol 'Joy to the World' were written in 1719 by Isaac Watts (1674-1748). The father of John Watts was a Non-conformist and so extreme were his views that he was imprisoned twice. His father's influence over Isaac was demonstrated when he choose to attend Nonconformist Academy at Stoke Newington in preference to a University. Watts was ordained as a Pastor of an Independent congregation. He wrote many hymns and Carols and was awarded a Doctor of Divinity degree by the the University of Edinburgh in 1728. The music to the carol is by George Frederick Handel (1685-1759). MoJo Thought: Have you ever noticed while reading articles that when referring to GOD that many folks decide to write it *G-D*? What is that? Is it supposed to mean that it is less potent and offensive by keeping the *o* from appearing? My suggestion to these folks isn't to use God at all. If you can't add the *o*, don't write it. This is true for those of you that believe or don't.

I am off for the weekend, and so far...no sign of snow. Earlier in the week it said we would see snow on Sunday, now it says no snow...just more cold.
Glad you like the song...I'm playing a real mixed bag tonight

Yo! Bannie
Why certainly...why would I change after 678 years?? Whatzat?? Oh! Alabaster Elf just whispered in my ears...
He says to ask you if you are going to be Bannie all year?? Hee! Ho!!
Well...you might just have wondered why you're hearing from me now...CAUSE IT'S CHRISTMAS Silly!!!
You might have noticed my name...while there are many reasons for it...the latest are: Fatboy is always on my case of late...and that Elves just don't get the respect and love we deserve!! But, Fatboy sures gets his plaudits!!
So, let's get on with the Christmas Spirit!! Show you love to everyone...and don't forget us Elves!!
As ever,
