I'm currently working remotely from a new location without full internet, so I can't find a copy of my old favorites... but I love the song about Nester the long eared donkey. And I love all the voices in the old cartoon about Nester. There's something soothing to that music....Nester was my favorite.

How can one choose a favorite? As a musician, I know I cannot! However, I seem to gravitate to 2 or 9 in a particular season. This year, this song seems to have stolen my heart. I'm singing it for our Christmas Eve service at church......

Papa' Noel ~ Brenda Lee

Hey Beau, let's go and get pirogue and push-pole down the bayou,
I want to see the Christmas Tree, dance o- fais dodo.
Have a big time and cut a shine, where all will be gay-o
Oh, Santa Claus will come tonight, down on the bayou
Papa Noel will bring the bells and all will be gay-o
I'm gonna be at the Christmas tree with my ma chère ami-o
So ring the chimes, it's Christmas time and pick the old banjo
Oh, Santa Claus will come tonight, down on the bayou
[Instrumental interlude]
See ma Nannan and ma Parrain, I know they'll all be there-o,
See Ol' Quelqu'un and Mamoun, Bébé and Jo-Jo,
See Jolivet oh my sweet pet and get me some sugar,
Oh, Santa Claus will come tonight, down on the bayou
So roll the rug, let's kiss and hug and let's all be gay-o,
A merry Christmas to you all and a happy bonne année-o
I'm gonna dance all through the night, 'til daylight with my babe-o,
Oh, Santa Claus will come tonight, down on the bayou
[Instrumental interlude]
Dionne wants a push-y-on, a pistolette and yo-yo,
My Jolivet, oh my sweet pet, Lord cher ami-o,
Oh Auntie Luce will cook the goose, and she will serve the gumbo,
Oh, Santa Claus will come tonight, down on the bayou
Papa Noel will bring the bells and all will be gay-o
I'm gonna be at the Christmas tree with my ma cher ami-o
So ring the chimes, it's Christmas time and pick the old banjo
Oh, Santa Claus will come tonight, down on the bayou

Ugh, I keep singing the Bad hair Bon Jovi song ....

[theoddz]

This has always been one of my most favorite Christmas tunes......

Fairytale of New York -- The Pogues with Kristy McColl

It was Christmas Eve babe
In the drunk tank
An old man said to me, won't see another one
And then he sang a song
The Rare Old Mountain Dew
And I turned my face away
And dreamed about you

Got on a lucky one
Came in eighteen to one
I've got a feeling
This year's for me and you
So happy Christmas
I love you baby
I can see a better time
When all our dreams come true

They've got cars
Big as bars
They've got rivers of gold
But the wind goes right through you
It's no place for the old

When you first took my hand
On a cold Christmas Eve
You promised me
Broadway was waiting for me

You were handsome
You were pretty
Queen of New York City
When the band finished playing
They howled out for more
Sinatra was swinging
All the drunks they were singing
We kissed on the corner
Then danced through the night

The boys of the NYPD choir
Were singing 'Galway Bay'
And the bells were ringing
Out for Christmas day

You're a bum
You're a punk
You're an old slut on junk
Living there almost dead on a drip
In that bed

You scum bag
You maggot
You cheap lousy faggot
Happy Christmas your arse
I pray God
It's our last

I could have been someone
So could anyone
You took my dreams
From me when I first found you
I kept them with me babe
I put them with my own
Can't make it all alone
I've built my dreams around you

The boys of the NYPD choir
Were singing 'Galway Bay'
And the bells were ringing
Out for Christmas day

Christmas Island - Leon Redbone

How'd ya like to spend Christmas on Christmas Island?
How'd ya like to spend the holiday away across the sea?
How'd ya like to spend Christmas on Christmas Island?
How'd ya like to hang a stocking on a great big coconut tree?

How'd ya like to stay up late, like the islanders do?
Wait for Santa to sail in with your presents in a canoe?
If you ever spend Christmas on Christmas Island
You will never stray for everyday
Your Christmas dreams come true.

How'd ya like to stay up late like the islanders do?
Wait for Santa to sail in with your presents in a canoe?

My co-worker was listening to some soul Christmas station on Pandora today at work. She said something about James Brown having a Christmas song. I didn't believe her. Then this came on. I was crakin' up. But also mildly surprised that James Brown could actually sing at one time.

I'll be home for Christmas
You can count on me
Please have snow and mistle toe
And presents under the tree

Christmas Eve will find me
Where the love light gleams
I'll be home for Christmas
If only in my dreams

I'll be home, I'll be home
If only in my dreams
I'll be home, I'll be home
If only in my dreams

I'm dreamin' tonight
Of a place I love
Even more than I usually do
(Usually do)
And although I know
It's a long road back
I Promise You

I'll be home for Christmas
You can count on me
Please have snow and mistle toe
And presents under the tree

Christmas Eve will find me
Where the love light gleams
I'll be home for Christmas
If only in my dreams

I'll be home, I'll be home
If only in my dreams

Newscopy:

This is the early evening edition of the news.

The recent fight in the house of representatives was over the open housing
Section of the civil rights bill.

Brought traditional enemies together but it left the defenders of the
Measure without the votes of their strongest supporters.

President johnson originally proposed an outright ban covering discrimination
By everyone for every type of housing but it had no chance from the start. A compromise was painfully worked out in the house judiciary committee.

In los angeles today comedian lenny bruce died of what was believed to be an overdoes of narcotics. Bruce was 42 years old.

Dr. martin luther king says he does not intend to cancel plans for an open
Housing march sunday into the chicago suburb of cicero. Cook county sheriff richard ogleby asked king to call off the march and the Police in cicero said they would ask the national guard to be called out if it is held. King, now in atlanta, georgia, plans to return to chicago tuesday.

In chicago richard speck, accused murderer of nine student nurses, was brought before a grand jury today for indictment. The nurses were found stabbed and strangled in their chicago apartment.

In washington the atmosphere was tense today as a special subcommittee of the House committee on un-american activities continued its probe into anti-
Viet nam war protests. Demonstrators were forcibly evicted from the hearings when they began chanting Anti-war slogans.

Former vice-president richard nixon says that unless there is a substantial increase in the present war effort in viet nam, the u.s. should look forward
To five more years of war.

In a speech before the convention of the veterans of foreign wars in new york, Nixon also said opposition to the war in this country is the greatest single Weapon working against the u.s.

Thats the 7 oclock edition of the news,
Goodnight.
