Countdown to Christmas Day 7!

Honestly, you can not have Christmas music and not play tribute to Frosty himself!  Of course it is the classic song I love.  Even the old animation is still a hit with kids.  With all the advancements of current cartoons, I know many think that cartoons of the past children will no longer enjoy!  That is so far from the truth!!  My girls love watching this movie and they had it playing at our dance studio the other day and I can say my children are not alone with loving this classic!

Countdown to Christmas Day 6!

This song is a favorite of my girls!  The love the beat and to them it reminds them of Dora so of course it has to be cool :-)  I have to admit though for myself all I know if the chorus of the song...no matter how old it is or how many times it plays I find myself still only knowing that one part.  I do not know about you, but for me it is an ear worm.  Once I hear it I can not get it out of my head! 

Countdown to Christmas Day 4!

I remember I was visiting my grandparents in Arizona one Christmas and it was the first time I had heard this song.  My grandparents were snow birds.  If your not familiar with the term it meant in the cold of the Canadian winters they escaped to the warmth of Phoenix.  I was about 5 years old and if it was not enough shock that I went from a city that had tons of snow to one that had none at all, just imagine when I heard this song.  As a small child I took this as an factual song.  I remember being worried Santa would run over my grandma as well.  Of course, now I know how much of a careful driver Santa is after this original incident. :-) The thing is now it is one of my favorite "fun" songs of the holiday season!  If making a list of my favorite Holiday songs this one is definitely one of them!

Countdown to Christmas Day 3!

I do not know about you, but for me Christmas isn't Christmas without a little Bing Crosby!!!  No matter if you grew up with a White Christmas or not Bing Crosby had you wishing for it.  I think for myself this song reminds me so much of my grandparents and reminds me truly about about the Holidays through the eyes of my youth.  Without a doubt the holiday season has became more commercialized, but just taking a moment to reflect back and with some good old holiday music you will definitely get your holiday cheer back if you have lost it!

Countdown to Christmas Day 2!

Without a doubt there is no denying that Mariah Carey has a beautiful voice.  It is even better when an artist with a beautiful voice and a beautiful song get paired up together.  This song is not a song that all artists can sing well.  Of course many artists do try, but if anything I find it just make the artists that do sing it well stand out even more.  Without a doubt this is truly one of my favourite Holiday songs!!
