I got it from Limewire....before they took it down! I was able to hear many versions of it before I decided on my favorite.

Silent Night (Stille Nacht) was originally written to be easily learned by a childrens chorus.

Also one of my favorites is Cantique De Noel...try and find it from the Roger Wagner Chorale. Absolutely beautiful!

My runaway favorite: "What Can I Give" as sung by the incomparable Mahalia Jackson.

Link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kEG4jX9g8Zk.

2:50 - 3:40 sends chills up my spine. 4:30 - 5:15 gets me all misty-eyed.

If I hear that damned Hippopatomus song one more time somebody is going to bleed!

LOL. I had to leave my computer to compose myself to finish this reply. I am with you on that and I hate Santa Baby just as much. I love anything by the Celtic Woman group.

One of the best IMO...

Christmas Bells aka Snoopy’s Christmas by The Royal Guardsmen

It just isn’t Christmas without a little levity...

I’m 47 and I hate all those Christmas pop songs. I have been hearing them for the last 25 years. Now I look for the oldies and classical. I must be getting old.

Mary's Boy Child is my favorite Christmas song.

Everytime I hear it I get goose bumps and tears. The version you linked to is especially good.

Least favorite: Santa Baby.
