It's Monday and it's time for more holiday music!
Today I am joining up with other Music Moves Me bloggers (and you can join us at the linky above). We are a group of music loving bloggers who blog about music each Sunday or Monday (or even later in the week). If you have music to share with us, you are most welcome to join! (Music Posts Only-meaning at least one music video, please! Otherwise, your post may be labeled "No Music".)
Our head host is Xmas Dolly, and our co-hosts are Cathy from Curious as a Cathy, joined by the knowledgeable Stacy of Stacy Uncorked and, last but not least, me.
Christmas begins in just three days, and, this year, so does Hanukkah (on the evening of December 25).
So let's celebrate both holidays in this post, although I will concentrate on Hanukkah.
An all time Christmas favorite of mine - The Pogues and Fairytale of New York. I can't get past the first verse without crying although I am not of Irish descent. "I can see a better time when all our dreams come true...."
And now to Hanukkah. The a capella group Six 13 does a song parody based on something modern each year. This year's song is A Wicked Chanukah and it's a bit more serious than some of their previous offerings.
From 2005, a modern classic - Saturday Night Live's Christmastime for the Jews, sung by the incomparable Darlene Love.
And that's a wrap....wait, before I wrap, there's this modern Christmas classic from the 1980's.
The Waitresses and Christmas Wrapping. And now that's a true wrap.
To all my readers who celebrate Christmas, Merry Christmas.
To all my readers who celebrate Hanukkah, Happy Hanukkah.
Join me again next week for another episode of Music Moves Me.
