I like Blue Christmas as done by Porky Pig  ;D

I'm making a Christmas compilation CD, I have plenty of traditional Christmas music and a bit not so traditional Christmas music but I was wondering if anyone would be willing to upload some cool Christmas tracks.  Should I start a new thread for that?  

I think I was supposed to upload some of my Christmas stuff for someone here a week or two ago, but I can't seem to find that thread now.  I will be working on this when I get home so I'll make a note to upload some of my stuff while I'm at it :)

My Grandmother bought me that record, I wish I still had it :(

WFPK Silent Night makes me tingle.
I'm digging, digging deep in myself, but who needs a shovel when you have a little boy like mine.

It's an absolute goldmine! :)

(Btw I did get most of my mp3s for the comp legally, because I've got the most irritating conscience, but this site helped with the stuff I couldn't get, and most of the comp is on there anyway I think! :))

QuoteOh yeah, let's not forget Bing Crosby/David Bowie-"Little Drummer Boy/Peace on Earth"

Cheers MMJ_F - Crosby and Bowie is my all time favorite.

I have been working on my Christmas mix CD and I just have to say that Jim's version of O Holy Night is hauntingly beautiful.  








I've also been playing around with Audacity and trying to sing some harmony with it, but eh not so good  :-[

Everyone has a photographic memory. Some don't have film.

How do you like the video of that?  I always though Bing looked like he was feeling awkward.
