Breath of Heaven - Amy Grant

This is such a beautiful song, depicting what Mary, the mother of Jesus, might have felt. The visuals, from "The Nativity," produced by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, seem to fit the music perfectly.

The Most Parodied Christmas Song Ever

When I was a little girl, I wasn't too crazy about singing The Twelve Days of Christmas, because it seemed to go on and on and on. It was kind of boring. I guess that's one reason everyone likes to put their own spin on it. Here are some versions I found, starting with my all-time favorite.

John Denver and the Muppets



Here's one for my little "princess" nieces.

Disney Princesses Twelve Days of Christmas



And one for a few of my nephews.

The Twelve Punishments of Christmas



One for everyone who has recently ended a relationsip.

The Twelve Days AFTER Christmas - Leslie Garrett



One for everyone in my generation. This was all over the radio.

Bob and Doug Mackenzie's Twelve Days of Christmas



And one for anyone who would like to simplify Christmas.

The Twelve PAINS of Christmas

Blue Christmas - Elvis Presley

Hmmm, I remember Elvis as a middle-aged fat guy in white bell bottoms and sequins. After watching this, I can see why women went nuts over him. (Yeah, he's good looking and he KNOWS it.)
