Christmas Songs
Let’s go for a third Christmas post! This past weekend, while we put up our decorations, we listened to holiday appropriate songs. I had forgotten how much I love the sound of the classic Christmas songs. Songs like “Have a Holly Jolly Christmas” by Burl Ives, “White Christmas” by Bing Crosby, “The Christmas Song” by Nat King Cole, “Baby it’s Cold Outside” by Johnny Mercer and Margaret Whiting, and “Frosty the Snowman” by Jimmy Durante. There’s just no better versions than these in my opinion. Sure there are great versions being put out now, but I love the classic/original versions of these carols. But my all time favorite Christmas song is Elvis’s Blue Christmas performed by Porky Pig. It’s the first song I have to play every year. And so… take it away Porky. ^_^
…and yes I realized it’s not Mel Blanc, but this guy does a fantastic Porky, I’m willing to over look it.
