@Doreensfree that's one of my favourite chrissy songs.

 

Hmm..... let's see....

WI spose this is the Aussie version of a Tom Waits' style of Chrissy song...

 

 

 

 

 

HAPPY GRAVY DAY.

 

 

 

 

 

@Boo Who are you and how do you know so much about so much.  I just danced with my husband. Him in a tux and me in a white and silver ballgown with a full skirt so the lights could sparkle as I turned.  The unusual thing about it, my husband did not dance, he has been in heaven these last 11 christmases and I have never worn a ballgown.  But I did tonight thanks to you!

This post has me speechless...and that rarely happens.

 

I can't really take much credit here, I just post songs I like.  However, I am glad that something I posted here brought you some joy.  Music is the universal language.

 

Best wishes to you and yours this Christmas Kris.

I've come around on this song.  In my younger days I vowed I would never listen to it again.  It was part of a Christmas program at school that I didn't even volunteer for, I was drafted.  The music teacher was wound tight and fond of the saying: "NO!  We'll take it from the top!"

 

In hindsight, that lady was in charge of the Christmas show and managing to get about fifty middle school kids on the same page...she had a lot on her.

 

Anyways...back to the music.

Have yourself a merry little Christmas folks.

 

Meanwhile, Down under Its Christmas Day, well 12.32am.... stick in isolation pending a negative test result but at least the soundtrack is good...

 

 

Now if you were an Aussie parent you'd have all the dance moves to this one down pat.... cos Santa Claus is coming....
