If we're doing songs too, my husband and I both love the "Baby it's cold" song, we were so excited when they sang it in Elf.

I love the way the girl in Elf sings that song! She's got an amazingvoice. I hope to God she comes out with an album. Her voice is socrystal clear. She doesn't need instruments.

Carolyn, I just watched ELF again the other night.
You are right she can really sing.What a beautiful voice!
I could listen to her all night!

I love all the Christmas movies and try to watch them all.
So many good childhood memories and memories from my children go along with these older movies!

I even watched the Charlie Brown Christmas tonight and could justpicture my three kids sitting in front of theTV watching it when theywere little.
Oh Boy.....memories. Where does the time go!

It's too bad she only sings that song and Santa Claus in Comin to Town.

Do you remember watching March of the Wooden Soldiers aka: Babes inToyland? Remember the Boogie Men? They scared me as much as the WickedWitch from the Wizard of Oz.

Tom Tom, Little Bo Peep, and :growl: Barnaby? I can still hear the music when Barnaby came on. He was a Real Creep! :X

Love ALL of the clay-mation movies .. absolutely no substitute for them

The Jim Carrey version of the Grinch was awesome

All the old claymation and cartoons, but especially Rudolph.
The Muppets Christmas Carol
And it's not fall/Christmas season without watching the Nightmare Before Christmas at least once!

As for music: Anything by Transiberian Orchestra (saw them inconcert last year- they're awesome!), the Muppets and John DenverChristmas cd, Muppets Christmas Carol, and a whole bunch of goofyChristmas song collections.

Gonzo: So bring us some figgy pudding...
Ms. Piggy: PIGGY PUDDING!

I love "White Christmas."We taped it when it was on TVseveral years ago and have watched it so much that the tape isbreakingdown! I'm hoping to get it on DVDforChristmas this year, because I don't thinkthetape will last much longer.Bing Crosby has one of the mostamazing voices I have ever heard.

Another one of my favorites is "Undercover Christmas." It was on TVabout 3 years ago so not many people have heard of it. Definitely oneof my favorites to watch this time of year.

Glad you like it, Carolyn.

You have to watch it all the way through. It looks like they are singing along to the words of the song.
