Happy Holidays, Patchers!
It's time to start planning those parties and family get-togethers we love at this time of year. If you're the party planner, it's always nice to have a playlist ready to last you through the evening.
We want to help you with that playlist (one thing you can check off your to-do list!) but we need your help first. Tell us: What is your favorite holiday song?
Leave your favorite in the comments and we'll create a Spotify playlist that will run on each Patch site Friday morning.
Traditional Hanukkah Song Ma-oz Tzur Y'shu-a-ti Le-cha Na-eh L'sha-bei-ach Ti-kon Beit T'fi-la-ti V'sham To-da N'za-bei-ach L'eit Ta-chin Mat-bei-ach Mi-tzar Ha-mi-ga-bei-ach Az Eg-mor B'shir Miz-mor Cha-nu-kat Ha-miz-bei-ach Az Eg-mor B'shir Miz-mor Cha-nu-kat Ha-miz-bei-ach Translation: Rock of ages, let our song Praise Your saving power; You, amid the raging foes, Were our sheltering tower. Furious they assailed us, But Your arm availed us, And Your word, Broke their sword, When our own strength failed us.
More recent tunes: Straight No Chaser "12 Days of Christmas", "Christmas Can-can" More traditional: Carol of the Bells, O Holy Night, Angels We Have Heard on High, Linus and Lucy (the Peanuts theme). On a side note, (which could be read as sarcasm) how has "I saw Mommy kissing Santa Claus" not generated any domestic abuse, especially in this day and age? Plus, I have this hard time believing Santa can get away with peeping in every kids' bedroom in the world, or even spying on them. Isn't that illegal?
Kathy Mattea's "Nothing But a Child" is one of my new favorites.
