lele79 Posted May 4, 2017 Share Posted May 4, 2017 We are currently working on new songs for our display this year and wanted to get ideas for new songs and artist! Let me know what your favorite songs are and what are some new songs for this year?? I think my favorite for this year so far is Away in a Manger by Casting Crowns! Thanks! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lightingnewb Posted May 4, 2017 Share Posted May 4, 2017 Most TSO (Trans Siberian Orchestra) songs or ones by Mannheim Steamroller are classics to our family. We also have done "throwbacks" to classic movies like "You're a Mean One, Mr. Grinch." 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
k6ccc Posted May 4, 2017 Share Posted May 4, 2017 When I started, it was mostly TSO and Mannheim Steamroller, and a military tribute (plus one from my church orchestra and organ that had special meaning to me). The next year I added a couple more traditional Christmas carols (Jingle Bells and Rudolph), and Soldier's Silent Night. Last year I added a couple more (Feliz Navidad, and Mr. Grinch). For 2017 I'm adding a Hanukkah song, and likely something else, but I have not finalized on that yet). Whenever Frontier gets my internet back up, you can go to my website - http://www.newburghlights.org and the list of songs for 2016 is there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Santas Helper Posted May 5, 2017 Share Posted May 5, 2017 It's all TSO for Paul O'Neill in my display this year. A dedication for him, the band and his fans. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DisneyMatt10 Posted May 29, 2017 Share Posted May 29, 2017 I love Christmas Can Can (As seen below.) It is fun, fast paced, and enjoyable. It was a huge hit too. Everyone I talked to about the show all mentioned how much they loved that song!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dibblejr Posted May 29, 2017 Share Posted May 29, 2017 I have done a lot of singing faces and yes Christmas Can Can is up at the top, Christmas Rhapsody, Carol of the Bells ~Barlow Girls, Mr Heatmiser ~ Groovebarbers to name a few. All of those are multi part and fun esp for the trees. JR 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SPaschall Posted May 31, 2017 Share Posted May 31, 2017 We always have one Elvis and one TSO song each year. My favorites are big band style songs from Brian Setzer or Denver and the Mile high Orchestra. It is really complex and the possibilities with the programming is endless.

samstone11 Posted May 31, 2017 Share Posted May 31, 2017 My family devotes everything about our show to the actual Christmas story. Several years ago the national Christian touring group Truth (4 members of which later formed the Christian supergroup 4Him) recorded an exceptionally moving track called The Carolers Song that has become by far our favorite. We are switching this year to RGB pixels only, and are extremely excited about new potential for the vocals, orchestration, and meaning of its lyrics. Here is a link https://youtu.be/EPcJeSnXwrw Odd factoid: the songwriter, Mark Harris, who has written or co-written 25 number-one Contemporary Christian songs joined the staff of a church less than a mile from our home in 2013. This is the first song we're programming with our redesign and would be ecstatic to hear more experienced, higher skilled suggestions even if you don't choose to use it yourselves. Hope you enjoy the song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mpageler Posted June 1, 2017 Share Posted June 1, 2017 Started out with many old classic songs. Have expended display to include some modern songs like Shake up Christmas, Christmis this year andLight of christmas. They are all upbeat, good message type songs that really make me smile. So now I have a display with songs dating from 60's to the present, whicyh I really enjoy. Probably my favorite is Drummer Boy by Pentatonmixs.

Ebuechner Posted June 3, 2017 Share Posted June 3, 2017 Last year I added Magic from Pilot. Just think about the lyrics. Ho Ho Ho it's magic. And it's a catchy tune that everybody recognizes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TBS99 Posted June 3, 2017 Share Posted June 3, 2017 This year I am adding: Winter Palace TSO One of my favorites. Try Everything by Shakira. My granddaughters grade school theme song. Miraculum by Lincoln Brewster. It is a 6 minute song but I am working on making it shorter without ruining it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dibblejr Posted June 3, 2017 Share Posted June 3, 2017 A lot of great ideas here. Last year I did New Song's - Christmas Shoes for singing faces along with many others. I will be accepting singing faces Christmas requests in the fall so if you have one in mind keep it ready and watch for my thread. Of course they are FREE JR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got to assist my sis n law with car problems. You know all about that. Immaturity, car wont start because hasn't had oil change in a couple years, hasn't checked oil and Lexus put a safety switch, low oil car no starty. LOL JR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ebuechner Posted June 3, 2017 Share Posted June 3, 2017 A couple of years? Damn lucky all that's wrong is it won't start. Can't remember which vehicle but I know there was one that used to tie the fuel pump ground to an oil pressure switch. And then there was Ford's infamous fuel pump safety switch that would trigger in an accident. Unfortunately it triggered if you bumped the curb or if the kids had a fight in the back seat( there's a story behind that). I towed in a lot of Fords just push the reset button (State Patrol didn't like us playing with cars on the interstate). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, her driveway is sloped so right now all (or any) oil is sitting in back bottom of pan LOL. Not telling her because I don't want her getting in her head so she doesn't drive too far away and then I have to rescue her. See, my memory is not all gone.
