Despite the general awfulness of the Christmas song there are however always exceptions to the rule and I have a short list of personal favorites.
Without exception all my choices not only include
the song but the best performer of that song and so in no particular order here
is my seventh selection.
“Silver
Bells” written by Jay Livingston and Roy Evans and performed by Sir Terry Wogan
and Aled Jones
Silver bells, silver bells
It's Christmas time in the city
Ring-a-ling (ring-aling) hear them sing (ting-a-ling)
Soon it will be Christmas day
City sidewalks, busy sidewalks.
Dressed in holiday style
In the air there's a feeling of Christmas
Children laughing, people passing
Meeting smile after smile
And on every street corner you'll hear
Silver bells (silver bells), silver bells (silver bells)
It's Christmas time in the city
Ring-a-ling (ring-aling) hear them sing (hear them sing )
Soon it will be Christmas day
Strings of street lights
Even stop lights
Blink a bright red and green
As the shoppers rush home with their treasures
Hear the snow crunch
See the kids rush
This is Santa's big day
And above all this bustle you'll hear
Silver bells (corner St. Clause)
silver bells (It's busy now because ..)
It's Christmas time in the city
Ring-a-ling (it fills the winters air)
hear them sing (you'll hear it everywhere)
Soon it will be Christmas day
City sidewalks, busy sidewalks.
Dressed in holiday style
In the air there's a feeling of Christmas
Children laughing, people passing
Meeting smile after smile
Very soon it will be X'mas day!
And on every street corner you'll hear
Silver bells (silver bells), silver bells (silver bells)
It's Christmas time in the city
Ring-a-ling (ring-aling) hear them sing (hear them sing )
Soon it will be Christmas day
