Well folks, ‘Tis the Season once again! I would like to wish all of you a joyful and rich Holiday Season spent with family and friends. This IS a special time of the year when people are a little more kind, and compassionate. I’m not the first to say..”Wouldn’t it be nice if this lasted all year long.” For many, I think it does. For others,not so much.
In any case, this weekend’s music thread is dedicated to the holiday. Post your favorite holiday/Christmas,
Kwanzaa…etc, songs. Songs of good will and peace. And, don’t forget to smile while doing so. 😉

And to round out my obvious like of Celtic Thunder. The second song says it all to everyone!
Great choice. They sing beautifully, huh? They look like they are having fun.
I know I’m a day late, but it’s not Christmas day yet!
Here’s one with the first verse in Irish. And some handsome Irishmen as a bonus!
Fergie, I really like Celtic Thunder. I put them on when it isn’t Christmas.

A late entry! the US Air force flash Band at the Smithsonian.

I wonder if I’m the only person who still has trouble listening to “And so this is Christmas.” It’s just too sad for me.
Why e cat, you mean because of John being “done away with?” I know the feeling. Even after all this time.
