Regardless of beliefs, many people love the songs of the Christmas season. These are a few of my favourites, even if I don't necessarily share all of their meanings. Christianity and other Faiths may have inspied great acts of evil, but they were also the inspiration for some of the greatest works of art the world has known. Feel free to add your own.



In Huron and French.

I like this version by the BNL because it's upbeat and joyful, what Christmas was supposed to have been about it....not the somber event that some Churches have made it.

Quote:

And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them: and they were sore afraid.

10 And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people.

11 For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord.

A sad Christmas song but it does something to me, I get the shivers, partly from the violins, I guess.

And one from my favorite little 5'3" powerhouse, singing acapella - no easy feat. This woman absolutely amazes me.

I was trying to find the video of Pavarotti at that same Christmas concert when he sang a duet with one of the boys from the choir, the boy brought down the house and Pavarotti stood there almost speechless after the boys performance.
