NSFW- What's your favorite Christmas carol or song?
So, what's your favorite Christmas hymn, carol, song or music? And, does any particular one, or several bring back memories of a previous Christmas or perhaps of a school, church or community play or pageant you once took part in? I pretty much enjoy it all, except for the plastic bell ringing choirs, some of the tone-deaf Salvation Army trumpet, trombone and tuba playing ensembles and Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer.
All through grammer school I and every kid had a part in the annual school play and always looked forward to the grand-finale, which was the opening of the gift you got from the kid who drew your name and the little box of mixed hard candies.

O Holy Night.
Absolute favorite.

I'd say for a carol, "Silver Bells." For a song, I still have liked "Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer" since I was a kid. heheh

A fourth vote for O Holy Night.
