I've been downloading music to play on Christmas Day. I don't like complete albums so I have a bit of Rod Stewart, Michael Buble and I've managed to find some old favourites by the Ray Conniff Singers to remind me of Christmas on the Isle of Wight when I was a teenager. I thought I'd give Nat King Cole and Bing Crosby a miss this year. smile

Annie Lennox belts out a good carol on Christmas Cornucopia. Sounds like she's singing in a medieval feasting hall.

John Rutters Music for Christmas for quieter moments.

Thanks, jingle I hadn't thought about Annie Lennox and I already have quite a lot of John Rutter. I love browsing for unusual stuff as by the time Christmas actually gets here I'm fed up with all the music that you are forced to listen to while shopping.

Leroy Anderson's 'Sleigh Ride'; 'The Shepherd's Farewell' by Berlioz; and, Merlot, the Ray Conniff singers 'Jolly Old St Nicholas' and 'Counting your Blessings'!

I love that Annie Lennox carol.

Nat King Cole......Chipmunks roasting on an open fire....makes a nice change from the original lol.

Mind you, by the time I'm dishing up the dinner the last thing I want is music belting out.

I always have Phil Spector's Xmas CD on the go - nothing like Darlene Love singing 'Winter Wonderland' and The Ronettes trilling away with 'Frosty the Snowman' to get me in the mood smile
