since its the holidays and all.. I'm just curious what is everyones favorite christmas song?

Mine is "the christmas shoes" I think thats the name

Its about a little boy standing in line to buy a pair of shoes for his sick mom.. and they are for his mom going to heaven..  but he doesnt have enough so the guy behind him helps him pay for them..

I love that song. I like them all though. Can't pick a fave!!!
O Holy Night is my favorite, hands down. I do love Christmas Shoes- but not because of the melody or how it sounds, I like the story it tells. Actually, I heard it today for only the 2nd time this year, and both times I've heard it, I start bawling like a baby. I try to avoid the song if at all possible because of that.

But, yeah, O Holy Night is my favorite, and my favorite version is Kelly Clarkson's version.

The LIttle Drummer Boy. Rump-pum-pum
Chokes me up every time I hear it. My son asked me if it was about baby Jesus and I was too busy crying to explain the song to him.

I love them all too! I haven't heard, "Christmas Shoes"! Thanks everyone for telling us about it, I'm gonna follow the link that Chrissy left and check it out right now! Thanks Chrissy!
Baylee C. Dec 25, 2008, 10:40pm EST
OMG... I had to come back after watching that. I'm crying so hard, my husband started freaking. It just reminds me so much of my little boy. I've been really, really sick for the past few years, and he loves me so much. This Christmas was really tight financially, and, bless his heart, he wrapped up things he found around the house and made me the most beautiful gifts. It's so sweet, he doesn't understand some things about money, and he wanted me to take him to a jewelry store, so he could buy me some jewelry. Kids like this do still exist, and I thank God every day for the beauty and love in my son!
