Favorite Christmas Song (Sacred and Secular)

"Do You Hear What I Hear" is beautiful. A group called Regeneration made a wonderful recording of it in the 70's on the album "Christmas in Velvet".

DYHWIH is not one of my favorites, but ReGeneration is a good choral group. Actually there are 4 Christmas in Velvet albums available on 2 CDS.

Well, I can't be very innovative here because my favorites are:

O Holy Night

Halleujah Chorus from thee Messiah

 

[Mike McK]

RadioMargaritaville.com is playing Peter Mayer's "Stars and Promises: Live" concert right now. It's an annual tradition and it really isn't Christmas in our house without it.

Here's some seculars I like:

Belafonte......Suzanne late 50's or early 60's simply the most beautiful song. don't think it can be found now though. Have it in vinyl but no needle for player.

Chris DeBurgh.......Lady in Red puts me in mind of my wife

Bryan Adams........Have You Ever Really Loved a Woman another Barb (my long time love) song

Eric Clapton...Tears in Heaven tragedy in spades.

Clay Aiken...Mary Did You Know wish I knew who did the original, we went through about 6 singers recently and didn't find the original, or at least the one we liked best.

Seems it's OK to post some secular on this thread, if not, delete and accept my opologies.
