We have been listening to christmas music here at work the past couple days and it got me thinking about singing christmas songs in elementary school. Did you guys have music class where you sang christmas songs the whole time? Oh man...we did and it was so much fun. What were some of the songs you sang? Those were the days....
My favorites were:
"grandma got run over by a reindeer"
"must be santa"
"I want a hippopotamus for christmas"
"I saw mommy kissing santa claus"
Re: Christmas songs
I don't know why, but I really prefer the classic, traditional Christmas songs the most, like Silent Night.
This morning I heard the donkey Christmas song for the first time this season and I had to laugh.
i remember singing all of those songs lesli! i loved that. i loved to sing rudolph the red nosed reindeer and in between the lines you would say something else..for example:
"had a very shiny nose" - "LIKE A LIGHTBULB!" i loved that..
I LOVE that "Marshmallow World" song! It's on one of my many Christmas CD's and I love to sing along when it comes on. My DH thinks its a ridiculous song though and makes no sense to him, lol.
I went to a Catholic grade school so we sang traditional Christmas hymns mostly. O, Little Town of Bethlehem was always one of my favorites.
OMG, Lesli! I totally remember those days with Mr. Shultz back at Hillside. I had forgotten all about the "must be santa" song...
must be santa, must be santa, must be santa, santa clause!
I have no idea how the rest of that song goes. Not Christmas related, but do you remember "miss jenny jones" and that halloween song where Mr. Shultz would try to walk through the door every year? PS. I think that man was a bit off his rocker. Pretty sure he was drinking a bit of alcohol with his tea bag!
I love thinking back to singing all of those songs in elementary school. Today our chorus gave their holiday concert during school and I loved it! One nice thing about being a teacher is you can still do these things : )
I also prefer the more traditional carols though. Stacey--I also heard the donkey song for the first time this morning--106.5? I listened to it, but doubt I'll hang on through another round!?
Ha, yes 106.5. I held on for that time and then they played it again this afternoon. I had to change the challenge. Donkeys and Christmas don't mix.
lol...I can't stand the donkey song. The first time I heard it was a few years ago on a car ride. I had fallen asleep in the back seat and woke up hearing that! I started grumbling to my parents, "What the heck are you guys listening to?" Needless to say I was not happy about it, and I couldn't believe that it was a christmas song. Imagine waking up to, "HEE HAW, HEE HAW, HEE HAW!"
