But here are some that I like a lot and have posted on my facebook page over the last few weeks.

many of my favorites aren't available on Youtube.
My boyfriend is going to show me how to make my own little videos. So I will post a few of those if I manage to do it before Christmas.

For the most part I prefer classic songs sung by classic artists or done as instrumentals (no Mannheim Steamroller please). My favorites are God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen and Greensleeves. Hubby used to own an awesome version of Greensleeves by Andre Segovia but the CD disappeared, much to my dismay. Although I'm not really a fan of contemporary artists covering Christmas songs, the version of God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen by The Barenaked Ladies and Sarah McLachlan is my favorite. And as much as it pains me to admit it, I love Mariah Carey's All I Want For Christmas.

But it don't snow here. It stays pretty green.
