Thread Name: New Holiday songs you are learning!
Subject: RE: New Holiday songs you are learning!
I have the same problem Alice does: re-memorizing the songs annually!
Last Christmas's big project for me was learning the lyrics and guitar chords to "Sleigh Ride", "You're a Mean One, Mr. Grinch", "I'm Gettin' Nuttin' for Christmas" and "Zat You, Santa Claus?" This year I think I'll concentrate on trying to remember what I learned! Who knows, I may FINALLY nail the chords to the bridge of "The Christmas Song" (chestnuts roasting on an open fire...)!!!
vestis: Can you post the lyrics to your anti Xmas shopping song?
Grab: "A Cockroach Christmas" by the Berrymans! Yes, of course! Thanks for reminding me of that one; I should learn that, too! (from their most recent CD, "House Concert") Do you know another Christmas song of theirs, "Big Dead Bird"? That's one of my favorites of theirs! (also on "House Concert" but I prefer the arrangement on their "So Comfortable" tape from 1984, which unfortunately is no longer in print)
