Here's the incomparable Karen Carpenter with a yule tide classic.

She also did a great (IMHO) version of "I Heard The Bells On Christmas Day"

Karen is one of my top 3 all-time favorite female vocalists. She could sing the phone book and hold my attention.

There is an awesome parody of this song, I forgot who did it, they sing it in the voice of Porky Pig. It is hilarious!

Much better than the Madonna version, imo.

You should see the Teyana Taylor version. Yikes!

Another all time classic. I ran into Melvin Franklin in a Nike shoe store in Hollywood about this time of the year 33 years ago. We exchanged greetings and kept moving. I was there buying a pair of BB shoes for my son who was playing in his first BB game (tournament) on his HS freshman team that day. He was shopping with a lady. The man talked like he sang, with a real deep voice.

 

[MSGRET]

Or maybe it's "O Come, All Ye Faithful"

This one is special to me because it was my late Father's favorite Christmas song. He would listen to his Mormon Tabernacle version during Christmas.

Bluedevil, I know that this post is not relevant to Uconn basketball but these have been great responses. Every song is worthwhile. But what is even better is that the civility and friendliness in the Boneyard has evolved beyond just the Uconn Women's team. I've watched as people shared their favorite dining places, movies, vacation spots, and foods. Yes, some of it is not strictly about basketball but it has evolved into sharing good memories and being friendly with people and it just does not get any better in a persons life.

Killarney may not be as exclusive as East Haven, but it is nice!

And one of the most difficult to play at tempo!
