bringing back an old thread ... many of us Lushies are big music lovers!
here's one of mine ... (so not to bore you)
Happy Xmas (War Is Over) - John Lennon (1971)
One of Beatle John Lennon's dreams in the music industry was to create a classic Christmas song. Undoubtedly, he was successful with the song "Happy Xmas (War Is Over)" that is simultaneously a holiday song and plea for world peace.

The top of this list will be, and have been since 2004, Karin Park with the song Once in december. It was made for a competition in a radio morning show. There was no doubt what song would win, it was a hit. If you want to check it out, and I suggest that you do, go to this site http://sverigesradio.se/sida/artikel.aspx?programid=2024&artikel=521787 and pick the one at the bottom. My second choice would be Squirrel Nut Zippers - Santa Claus is Somking Refeer. I'll throw in a Swedish one too Carola - Himlen i min famnI almost forgot, I need to throw in another one that's a new favourite of mine ( I know now I broke the rule of 3.) But it goes hand in hand with a topic in the think tank at the moment.

Silent night because of the stories I've heard and read about from World War 1 and World War 2. When the troops stop fighting to sing a Christmas Carol that is just badass.

Numbers 1,2, and 3 for me... "O Holy Night" I remember hearing it in church when I was a kid. Maybe 10 years old or so. Was sang by a soprano with a gorgeous voice. It was the first time I ever heard music that made the hair on the back of my neck stand up. Gave me goose bumps. I was totally in awe. It was that night that I knew I wanted to play music in some form or fashion. It was a life altering experience. And yes, she knows she is the reason for my love of music. When the debate is lost, slander becomes the tool of the loser. Socrates
