My favorite is "All I Want for Christmas is You" by Mariah Carey. It starts my holidays and it makes me so happy and the urge to dance takes over and then I do.

John Denver and the Muppets singing A Christmas Together. I would dance around the house with my chidren in my arms singing his songs. Now I do it with my Grandchildren.

I'm Dreaming Of A White Christmas. And anything by Johnny Mathis..what Kim L said. I snagged the LP from my mom's albums before I left home for good. Still have it, but no turntable to play it on.

I LOVE Christmas music and it would be hard to determine a favorite holiday song. I do love Good King Wensceslas for a favorite Winter song because it is such a good story, and I love Joy To the World! for a favorite Christmas song, and all of Handle's Messiah.

Oh, to pick one....I love them all. But I will say I love "Little Drummer Boy".....I have no gift fit for the King. Also, "I'll Be Home For Christmas".....if only in my dreams. If you have every been away from loved ones on Christmas you get it.
Ali, thanks for the great giveaways. Happy weekend.

My favorite has always been White Christmas by Bing Crosby.

Oooh, picking one is so hard! I think it's a toss up between Donny Osmond's "Mary Did You Know", "Do They Know It's Christmas" from Band Aid, and "Feliz Navidad" by Daphne Rubin Vega. Thanks for the chance to win - I'm going to go check out the Countdown toChristmas kit from Cocoa Daisy!

My favorite song is "Baby it's Cold Outside." I loved Zooey Deschanel in Elf singing it in the shower. I try to get my husband to sing it with me during the Christmas season but he unfortunately won't play along :)
