First, this isn't supposed to answer your question, Fox.

What I was going to say: I don't really like songs like "White Christmas" and songs that focus on getting a lot of presents. I like the more traditional ones.

Uhmmm... I don't think they do really. I mean, they probably play instumental versions of song like that in shops and stuff, but I haven't actually heard much christmas songs out and about lately.

I like A Mad Russian's Christmas by the Transiberian Ochestra (it helps that they had streams of fire in the middle of the audience in time with the music) and the Carol of the Bells (it makes me smile).

actually..."White Christmas," focuses on - as the title implies - snow, is a pretty old one, unless you mean traditional in the Christian sense like "Away in a Manger" and "O Come All Ye Faithful" and what not X)

I do think that's what she means.

Although, Feliz Navidad and the Jingle Bell Rock also rock my sox

Yeah, that's what I meant. And Kat, I love the Trans-Siberian Orchestra, too!

I really like White Christmas... and the movie too... Bing Crosby may have not been the best man, but he could SING!

And, although beautiful, I much prefer the original version of most "Christmas" songs, such as Greensleeves(as opposed to What Child is This), or the Original version of The Holly and The Ivy... maybe its my Paganism coming out... but whatever...

White Christmas was written for Bing Crosby by Irving Berlin

However, Danny Kaye is the bombdiggity, yo!

I just saw White Christmas for the first time this Christmas.

I've never seen White Christmas but it's on my to do list.

Bing Crosby Danny Kaye and Natalie Wood, such a great movie, its a tradition to watch it on Thanksgiving in my family. "Sisters, Sisters, never were there two more devoted sisters..."
