I love Feliz Navidad too, because it's a happy tune.
I also like anything by Mitch Miller. Makes me think of when I was very young.

Re: What is your favorite/least favorite Christmas Carol?

I love "Silent Night." We always go to the 11 PM Christmas Eve candlelight service, and the very last hymn is this one. We are given candles when we enter the church, and before the hymn is sung, we all light our candles, they dim the lights in the church, and we sing the hymn a cappella. It is very moving. I always pray for all of my blessings and being with my family. It really makes me calm down and think about the true meaning of Christmas. I always cry like a silly goose.
We do the exact thing in our church too! Sometimes, I sorta dread going beacuse it's late and usually snowing, freezing. But when we sing Silent Night and dim the candles, it is very, very nice and calmiing. I makes you ponder what it's all supposed to be about.

ditto! Santa better not hang out the "gone fishin' " sign come Christmas though or there will be one disappointed little round pumpkin boy. :lol:

But I suppose he's too young to expect stuff - right?

We go to the late service at our church, too. The whole place reeks (sp?) of bourbon. :rotfl: I usually conk out and sleep through it.

Dark, warm church + a bucha whiskey = snoring landlocked.

Hilarious!!!!!!!!!!

Yes, I've had a few by then. I brush my teeth, chew gum, and hope no one smells the alcohol on my breath.

We also have a 7 PM service, but even the Minister of Music calls it "The Service From Hell" because of all of the noisy and crying kids, so we go to the more formal late service. On the other hand, aren't they the funnest part of Christmas?

Johnrudy, my sentiments exactly.
