Advent follies, the last entry

[lumineaux]

Carol the first:
  And so I'm offering this simple phrase
  To kids from one to ninety-two
  Although it's been said many times, many ways
  A very Merry Christmas to you

Carol the second:
  There's a tree in the Grand Hotel, one in the park as well,
   The sturdy kind that doesn't mind the snow.



Tomorrow I'm going to post the full list of carols that I've used, as well as the final lumineaux vs. the Peanut Gallery score.  I own copies of all of the carols I've used (sometimes multiple versions, even) and I'm considering burning CDs of the "lumineaux Christmas album" compiling all of the Advent follies.

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas
soon the bells will start
and the thing that will make them ring
is the carol that you sing
right within your heart.

Yes indeed. "It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas"

Ya know, I am uncertain of the actual title of the first, but I know the opening line is "Chestnuts roasting on an open fire". Is that, in fact, the title? Or is it Merry Christmas to You?

But I KNOW this one!

Too many years in too many choirs, that's what I blame it on!

You've correctly ID'd the song, but for this one I *do* want the actual title. That's the challenging part. :-)

Isn't the first carol "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas"?

No, that was yesterday's

#1 is The Christmas Song (Chestnuts Roasting on an Open Fire).

Yes, exactly!
