I really wanted to post more than two Sunday Songbirds this month, because there is SO much holiday music that I enjoy, but time and health just really didn’t permit it this year. Oh well – more for next year, right?? (Maybe I could even try to organize those now, while I’m thinking about it, so they’ll actually be on time next December!)
Anyways, it just never really feels like Christmas to me, until I celebrate with Charlie Brown and the rest of the Peanuts – I look forward to pulling out the soundtrack to A Charlie Brown Christmas every December (and watching the movie, of course!). So obviously I had to share a couple of my favorite songs with you today.
I don’t know about you, but classics like these always get me in the holiday spirit. I hope you find a few quiet moments today to sit back and enjoy!
“Christmas time is here,
We’ll be drawing near,
Oh, that we could always see,
Such spirit through the year…
Oh, that we could always see,
Such spirit through the year…”
Christmastime Is Here – Vince Guaraldi Trio – A Charlie Brown Christmas
“Hark! The herald angels sing,
Glory to the newborn King,
Peace on earth and mercy mild,
God and sinners reconciled…”
Hark The Herald Angels Sing – Vince Guaraldi Trio – A Charlie Brown Christmas

What are some of your favorite Holiday Classics? Do you and yours celebrate with Charlie Brown and the gang?
Thank you for the holiday cheer. Merry Christmas.
I love Charlie Brown too! :)
