Songs For Saturday: It's Christmas Day

 


Today is Saturday.

And it's also Christmas Day!!

While you're sifting through all the shredded Christmas wrapping, wondering if you can at least store credit on the really ugly sweater your Aunt Trudy got you while listening to Bing Crosby's White Christmas for the ONE THOUSAND EIGHT HUNDRED SEVENTY THIRD TIME, let today's Songs For Saturday provide an alternative holiday music selection for Christmas. 



One of the perennial classics of the holiday season is "All I Want For Christmas" by Mariah Carey. 

Or by Jean-Luc Picard?



"The Carol of the Bells" is much more fun when it's... unintelligible.


If you were on Santa' naughty list, I hope you at least get sump'in... from Sump'in Claus.



I hope everyone can feel the love and joy of the Christmas season all across the Earth and even into the farthest reaches of space.  Here is Jonathan Coulton with "Merry Christmas From Chiron Beta Prime".   


Nothing says "Merry Christmas" like that beloved yuletide reptile. He's letting all the girls and boys in AND he's holding back the poison, it's Sammy the Christmas Snake! 


Let's wrap this up with a classic take on "White Christmas" by the Drifters.


Merry Christmas to one and all !

Until next time, remember to be good to one another and to always keep the music alive.
