[QUOTE="jayem, post: 77470398, member: 8344"] I'm not a religious person. But I like Christmas. Everyone knows it's largely a secular holiday. Christians grafted Jesus's birth into the Roman winter solstice celebration. And some good music has been written for it. A few of my favorites: Darlene Love was Phil Spector's go-to girl singer. She does the best version of White Christmas. Irving Berlin (who was Jewish) wrote a spoken introduction, which is almost never heard in most recordings. Phil added it in as a spoken interlude between the verses. [MEDIA=youtube]9RB8z28THPc[/MEDIA] The Eagles do an excellent cover of this old Christmas blues song, Don Henley's vocals are great. The original, by Charles Brown, is on YouTube and is worth a listen. [MEDIA=youtube]5LUfDEATQHM[/MEDIA] I'm not a big fan of Taylor, but she does the best version of Last Christmas. Better than George Michael's original. [MEDIA=youtube]T4pTMZuAux4[/MEDIA] [/QUOTE]
