It's that time of year--the decorations come out, shoppers increase, and you hear Christmas music everywhere.

So...what's your favorite Christmas song?

Who Comes This Night - James Taylor. 

When this album was released I was working at Borders and was able to get a bunch of copies to give as gifts. Always on the look out for versions of songs I know I was automatically drawn to a Christmas collection by a favorite artist but also love this piece specifically because I had never heard it before.

I honestly can feel the snowflakes melting on my cheeks when I close my eyes and listen to this one.

I had never heard this song so I gave a

listen. Beautiful song, of course JT is

always a pleasure to listen to. Thanks

for sharing! 🎼💜

I'm Gettin' nuttin' for Christmas

Shirley Temple 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aUA7BPnog_0

I broke my bat on Johnny's head;
Somebody snitched on me.
I hid a frog in sister's bed;
Somebody snitched on me.

I spilled some ink on Mommy's rug;
I made Tommy eat a bug;
Bought some gum with a penny slug;
Somebody snitched on me.

Oh, I'm gettin' nuttin' for Christmas
Mommy and Daddy are mad.
I'm getting nuttin' for Christmas
'Cause I ain't been nuttin' but bad.

I put a tack on teacher's chair
Somebody snitched on me.
I tied a knot in Susie's hair

Somebody snitched on me.

I did a dance on Mommy's plants
Climbed a tree and tore my pants
Filled the sugar bowl with ants
Somebody snitched on me.

So, I'm gettin' nuttin' for Christmas
Mommy and Daddy are mad.
I'm gettin' nuttin' for Christmas
'Cause I ain't been nuttin' but bad.

I won't be seeing Santa Claus;
Somebody snitched on me.
He won't come visit me because
Somebody snitched on me.

Next year I'll be going straight;
Next year I'll be good, just wait
I'd start now, but it's too late;
Somebody snitched on me.

So you better be good whatever you do
'Cause if you're bad, I'm warning you,
You'll get nuttin' for Christmas.
