Billboard's 100 Holiday Songs List

[mpageler]

I took a peak at Billboard's 100 Holiday song list after CBS Sunday Moring show this morning, highlights thr #1 song on the the list...All I Want For Christmas is You. 

Billboard !00 Holiday Songs

Various reason why/how songs make it into our Christmas displays.  Never hurts to keep in mind, at least a little, what people like listening too.

The Pentatonics really saturated the list this year.  Interesting list.  Thanks for posting.

[George Simmons]

How about that?  I must have missed a memo somewhere. I don't have a single one of those in the display this year.

Now I know why no one ever stops by.

you are your own top billboard.

love every video you've posted -

three of my 30 songs made the list . I'm sure the rest of the world will catch up

Numbers 9, 10, 12, 20 on the Billboard list are in my 11 song show...

Numbers 1,6,7,9,11,12,16,19,22,28,30,34,42,58,60,71,98,  on the Billboard list are in my 28 song show. Which I might add would not have been possible with out the help, support and sharing of the great people in this forum. I don't like to single out any one individual because so many people have and are willing to share there knowledge with the rest of us that are still in the learning curve, but I would like to give special thanks to Old Sarge and James Morris for sharing there many sequences when my laptop mysteriously disappeared from my pickup.

That's why I dont make the drive from the SE Twin Cites, you march to a different drummer   When I posted this, I would have bet a retirement paycheck that George was going to repond as he did. Not good or bad...just predictable.

Not sure what to say. These were in my show this year. 1,3,4,7,8,9,11,12,13,14,15,17,19,20,23,28,30,53,55,58,60,67,69,81,89,98

Oddly enough my number one requested song for the third year in a row didn't make the list. Let It Go.

That's okay.  No sense in making the drive and then waiting in line for 30 minutes or more just to witness something you wouldn't like.

The sad thing is that I've heard most of those songs on that list so darn many times during my life that I detest almost all of them today.  No, I should rephrase that.  Detest might be too weak of a word.

Right from the start I decided I would do my best to avoid all those thread-bare songs that people can turn on their radio and hear, or walk into a store or an elevator and hear almost anywhere/everywhere they go.  They don't need to come out to our house to see/hear that same sort of stuff.

What I don't get tired of hearing, however, is how many people tell me on an almost nightly basis that one of the things they like MOST is my assortment of music and how exciting and uplifting it is to watch.  I'll leave the songs on that list for you guys to do.

Seems to me that should tell you something.
