I was in a certain discount department store before Thanksgiving and the place was done up in full Christmas drag with traditional holiday music blaring away. So I thought before overexposure to cheese wrecks them, let’s take a minute to appreciate the holiday songs we love. Here are the favorites of your friends at Schifino Lee:
Alison: “Rocking Around The Christmas Tree” by Brenda Lee
Eric C: “Rudolph The Red Nose Reindeer” by Gene Autry
Ben Lee: “Bing Crosby’s ‘White Christmas‘ reminds me of growing up in New York City in the 30’s eventhough I didn’t.”
Amanda: “Baby, It’s Cold Outside”
Paula: “Santa Baby” (here’s a sweet and sultry performance by Kylie Minogue)
Jill: “12 Days of Christmas” by Bob and Doug McKenzie. Anyone who knows Jill understands.
Roxie: “I’ll be home for Christmas”
Jeannette: “The Christmas Song” as sung by Nat King Cole
Nordin: “Any of the Christmas carols that the Chinese Restaurant sang to the family in A Christmas Story family.”
Eric L: “All I Want For Christmas is You” Mariah Carey
Bryan is half-Jewish/ Half Christian so he gets 2 picks: N Sync, “Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays” and Adam Sandler’s original “Chanukah (Hanukkah) Song”
