Nevermind recordings, I’d love to know where to find the sheet music in the original Ukrainian! Any ideas? (Pref. SATB* a cappella *arrangement, but I realize I can’t be too fussy here.)
Religious-Schubert’s Ave Maria, “Night of Silence”, “Oh Holy Night”
Secular-“I Want a Hippopotamus for Christmas” (I LOVE this song!)
“Marshmallow World”
“Santa Baby” (the older version, NOT the Madonna one)
“Rockin’ Around the Christmas Tree”
“Holly and the Ivy”
“Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas”
“Count Your Blessings” from White Christmas
My favorite Xmas song is the Ave Maria written by Frans Biebl.
Until then, I didn’t realize it could have more then one meody attached to it.
Religious-Break Forth O Beauteous Heavenly Light
Messiah
Secular-Christmas at Ground Zero
Tom Lehrer’s Christmas Carol
Fatty Claus
The McKenzie Brothers 12 days-Take OFF!
Deck Us All With Boston Charlie
Hey Guin-did you hear that there’s a version of ‘I Want a Hippopotamus’ that starts ‘I Want a keg of Murphy’s Stout for Christmas’?
Ooooo, thanks! I’ve just known it as “that Christmas song from Toys, the one at the beginning and the end.” I love it too.
