Spike? It's you. It's really you! My therapist thought I was holding on to false hope, but…I knew you'd come back. You're like…you're like Gandalf the White, resurrected from the pit of the Balrog, more beautiful than ever. Oh…he's alive Frodo. He's alive.

There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

The Chieftans one is a favorite of mine too. It was my main Christmas album until Mojo Magazine put out a Christmas mix a couple of years ago. Love that!

But the Chieftans one is what I listen to the most with my family. My mom and I like to sing Il Est Ne together. Which is funny because of how I speak no French.

The only Xmas music I can tolerate is Charlie Brown Xmas. Frankly, during the Xmas season, there is so much Xmas music elsewhere I don't listen at home.

My family used to have a compilation album from the 1950's that had Les Paul and Mary Ford, Bing Crosby, Frank Sinatra that I used to like to listen to. (We still have it somewhere.) It was called Merry Christmas to You.

My favourite carol is In the Deep Midwinter, which I had never heard until I went to an Anglican university.

Ann, that's a ferret.

What's your favorite Christmas album?

I've really lost my taste for Christmas music over the past few years. But I remember an Andy Williams album very fondly from my childhood. Especially "My Favorite Things," which, okay, isn't a Christmas song, but I think of it as one because it's on that album.

In the Bleak Midwinter?

Ed Harcourt does that on the Mojo mix and it is now one of my favorite christmas songs too!

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

Silkworm did a great version of "In the Bleak Midwinter" as well.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I love that song, too, as long as I don't think about it literally.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Heh.

I love how many Jewish singers do Christmas albums.

Jewsrock.org has a piece on the phenomenon. I love that site. [link]

Oh, and I think my favorite Christmas album might be some 50s compilation I bought at a store like Banana Republic or something.
