It's not Christmas to me until I hear Jose Felicano sing "I Want to Wish You a Merry Christmas".  I just heard it.  He was my classical guitar hero since I was teenager.  My signature guitar piece was his Malaguena (on a 12 string no less) I wish my hands could do that again.

 

If you want to hear him play it, here is the YT link.  I named one of my horses Malaguena.  I had a cow I name "Freddy" lol

Jose Feliciano - Malagueña

 

What song gets you in the Christmas mode?

"Grandma got run over by a reindeer." Just kidding! Anything by Nat King Cole.

I love the Nutcracker Ballet music--so beautiful and exquisite. I try to go to this ballet at least every other year. Often there are many children in the audience, enjoying the performance and all the dancing.

 

I really like the song The Carol of the Bells--very artistic. The Little Drummer Boy also makes me very nostalgic, and I always want to sing along with Rudolph, the Red-Nosed Reindeer.

 

As we get closer to the holidays, many radio stations play Christmas music non-stop, so we can always find a favorite song to hear!
