30 Days of Carolling: Day 2

Least favorite Christmas Carol

Again I assume this is meaning any Christmas song. And that honor goes to Paul McCartney's "Simply Having A Wonderful Christmas Time" - seriously the most annoying and stupid song I could think of. I LOVE Christmas music, and was worried I wouldn't be able to find one for this prompt, and then this song came on a commercial and I said "BINGO". It's just so dumb, uncreative... and the "music video" is just... yeah.

Ugh.

30 Days of Carolling: Day 1

Favorite Carol of All Time

I'm assuming that this doesn't mean just the traditional, but I guess mine is one of those classic/tradition/old Christmas songs. O Holy Night is timeless and the perfect song to reflect on why many of us celebrate the Christmas season (as opposed to the many other holidays, or the commercial holiday season). So many famous singers have done this song, and done it well, but the one that I blast all throughout the year - not just the days leading up to Christmas - is Josh Groban's version. His voice is amazing, and for some reason just seems to be the *right* way for this song to be sung... I don't know what it is, really.
