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!

Shout Cast l Launch Music l Live-Radio Net l Christmas By Song Joy To The World
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.

Thank you for asking about my granddaughters. They live about a mile away, so I'm blessed with them often. It's still a wonderful thing when they come, though. I love 'em more than life--of course.
I never get enough time in here...I'm always in and out...but I catch up whenever I get to sit down.
:-D

Back when I was in school, I worked in upstate New York on a co-op assignment with IBM. I was the subject of considerable ribbing, seeing as how I was from the South and "talked different." Each year, on the day before Thanksgiving, the small lab I was assigned to would have a breakfast where each staff person would bring in a dish of their choosing. Being a good Southern boy, I made a baked grits casserole (had to get my folks to send the grits to me by mail). After some initial misgivings, and close questioning about what, exactly, grits were; the folks gobbled it right down.
