So glad you’ve been able to safely and sanely survive the holiday rush and, yet, find some time to spend here for our holiday get-together.
Giving credit where credit is due, my thanks to Elvis Costello because a portion of one of his song titles inspired my blog title. My undying thanks and mega-kudos to all the YouTube recording artists, videograhphers and contributors who have cast their creative, brilliance upon my Holiday BlogCast. Obviously, my show could not glow without YOU!
Since this DJ’s philosophy is to let the music speak for itself, we’ll get to the music shortly. However, I could not resist briefly sharing with you the backstory of this program’s grand finale track.
While performing my musical reconnaissance over @ YouTube, I thought to myself…
Gee… I sure wish someone would do a mash up of Joy To The World with Ludwig van Beethoven’s Ode To Joy…
Well… what did I have to lose? I typed in those search parameters and… Lo and Behold… a passing thought of mine materialized right before my very ears and eyes. The Magic of the Season! My Christmas wish came true!
May the Magic of the Season and your Christmas / Holiday wishes come true, too! And may my song selections be music to your ears.
The two sides to a long distance relationship…
The Carpenters ~ Merry Christmas Darling
Al Martino ~ I’ll Be Home For Christmas
Our heartfelt pleas for harmony, tolerance and peace…
Bryan Adams ~ Christmas Time
Josh Groban ~ Happy Xmas (War Is Over)
Our Ode To Joy / Joy To The World best wishes…
The Florin Street Band ~ My Favourite Time of Year
The Piano Guys ~ Ode To Joy To The World (With Choir & Bell Ringers)
I thank you for your listenership and cordially invite you to check out the remainder of my Top 20 Countdown “2” Christmas… where I’ll be presenting select holiday classics… one-a-day… from now until we reach #1 on the 25th. I’ll be posting later today and, of course, tomorrow.
