Song Name | Comments & Submitter Name |
| "Carol Of The Bells" | "Christmas is here, bringing good cheer...", "Ding, dong, ding, dong...".(usually accompanied by Christmas bells). - Santa |
| "Coventry Carol" | Also known by its first line, "Bye-bye, thou little tiny child". The title "Coventry Carol" is nowhere in the lyrics. - Donna Rand Blitzen |
| "The Angels' Song" | "The Angels' Song" is in fact the original title given the song by its author, Edmund H. Sears, But today possibly few even know it by that title. It has become generally known by its first line, "It came upon the midnight clear". - Thessaly Danes |
| "America" | Opening and best know line is "My country, 'tis of thee". In fact, that is often parenthetically attached to the title, most likely to distinguish it from "America The Beautiful" another song that also might be thought of as "America" and which DOES have "America" in the title. - Thessaly Danes |
| "Battle Hymn Of The Republic" | "Mine eyes have seen the glory" (opening line) or "Glory, glory, Hallelujah" (opens each chorus) could either be the best know lyrics. The title certainly isn't in the lyrics. - Thessaly Danes |

"Walking in the Mall (Without My Pants)" by Sanity Claus
a parody of "Winter Wonderland" by Traditional
A musical parody of a holiday classic! Sort of an enhanced slide show to music. Sorry about the pixelation but Google compressed the heck out of it (235 MB original uploaded file). Would have put it on YouTube but their max is 100MB. Note: This was way more time consuing than I had imagined! I had never before tried any form of "video" production and learned this program from scratch (ProShowGold), though am apparently just scratching the surface of its capabilities. There were over 300 pictures and countless timing issues and titles to coordinate for this six minute piece...wish I could sing... would have been so much better... que sera! (means lame larynx in Spanish). If I attempt this again, I suspect it will only be to one of my shorty (i.e. Edelweiss) submissions... I'd appreciate any feedback/suggestions for future endeavours...Thanks!

When they tell you to hum when everyone else is singing, it can upset you a little. Enough to write a parody, at least.

Nonsensical Lyrics:
"The Twelve Days Of Christmas"
The Nonsensical Lyrics: On the tenth day of Christmas, my true love sent to me
Ten lords a-leaping, nine ladies dancing. Why They're Nonsensical: If anyone actually owned people, as they would need to to be able to give them as gifts to another person, those people they owned would hardly be lords and ladies. They would be slaves! And the song is preposterous enough just for the plethora of birds it reports giving to one's true love. Incidentally, someone posted this song's title as a "Literally impossible song title", saying that Christmas was "only one day". In fact the Twelve Days of Christmas are an old and once-reverred tradition, extending from December 25th through January 5th. The night of January 5th, or Epiphany eve, was once observed as a night of special reverly, called "Twlefth Night", a name still remembered as the title of a play that Shakespeare wrote about such a kind of revelry. Yes, the twelve days of Christmas were once a revered and serious observance. But the inane lyrics of this song are all that many people know today as an indication of that tradition. One could well surmise that this song's nonsense could have played a role in killing that splendid tradition, by reducing it to sheer poppycock!

Inappropriate Lyrics:
"White Christmas [in sometimes included intro]"
The Inappropriate Lyrics: There's never been such a day
In Beverly Hills, LA. Why They're Inappropriate: 'Beverly Hills, LA' is in the form of a [city],[state] address. In such a form, 'LA' is the abbreviation for Louisiana. But I very seriously doubt that the song means to refer to Beverly Hills, Louisiana, even if there is such a place.

Lyrics Pronunciation:
"God Rest Ye Merry, Gentlemen"
The Lyrics: The shepherds at those tidings rejoiced much in mind,
And left their flocks a-feeding in tempest, storm, and wind. And went to Bethlehem straightway, the Son of God to find. Why: "Wind", at the end of the second line cited refers to the weather phenomenon and should rhyme with "friend" in its normal pronunciation. That would make it not rhyme with "mind" or "find" in the preceeding and following lines. But to make it rhyme, it is sometimes pronounced to rhyme with those other two words. Than makes "wind" SOUND like an entirely different word, a word for what a crooked river does, or once upon a time a word for what one did with one's watch to keep it running, a meaning likely lost on today's youth who grew up in the world of first self-winding watches and then battery operated and mostly didgital watches. In any event, the actual word in the song is the still common word "wind", the weather phenomenon, but to make it rhyme it is often pronounced like its homograph, the becoming-less-common word "wind" possibly more remembered today as the root of "rewind".

But when I was a child, few songs made me cry so much. The thought of a snowman that magically came alive, but only to have to say let's hurry to have fun because he'd melt away soon, was about one of the saddest impositions upon the otherwise cheery season that I could imagine. I utterly dreaded the thought of having to hear this "Christmas song"!
