I like the more uptempo, faster beat Christmas songs. White Christmas makes me want to scream "speed it up!"
I think my favorite song is Band Aid's Do They Know Its Christmas.
We took my son and one of his friends to see the Trans Siberian Orchestra when he was in high school. It was a great show.
True story.....
When I was seven I got my two front teeth for Christmas. Much to my surprise their was a HUGE box in the living room with my name on it. I was sooo excited! But Dad made me open my other gifts first, which was fine.. whatever.
I finally get to open this massive box which was probably three feet high. I shred that wrapping paper with absolute glee and pry the top open to discover......
.........another box. I'm not kidding when I say I had to open at least fifteen boxes all nestled inside one another. I was tired by the time I got to a small ring-sized one. Lo and behold! Santa brought me two front teeth. I'm talking actual dental fabricated front choppers, not fake novelty teeth.
Dad laughed his @$$ off. Mom just shook her head. She was just as surprised as me. I'm not sure how long it took Santa to wrap everything but I found out years later that Dad had my uncles, who were dentists, have the teeth made.
It's my most memorable Christmas gift ... beating out my Barbie townhouse and water skis.
