No need to be so melancholy – let’s play something a little more upbeat. Here’s Bruce Springsteen’s rendition of “Merry Christmas, Baby”:

Let’s check out what’s playing over at the local honkytonk – oh, look! It’s “Santa Looked a Lot Like Daddy”; that’s a fun song:

And you can’t have a Blue Christmas when listening to Elvis Presley’s rockabilly version of “Winter Wonderland”:

Feeling better, Bucky? Okay, time to roll you home and pour you into bed; you can sleep in late tomorrow morning….

Awww, the first selection when straight to my heart, with Hubby being gone.
I have to skip Bruce Springsteen, though. He grates my nerves. But Elvis and Aaron FTW!!!

Oh, I DESPISE Bruce Springsteen – but I didn’t know that he was the guy who sang this song until many years later; by that time, I liked the song too much to give it up….. 😛

Hmmmm the Eagles doing a cover of a Christmas standard…I like it! Passed on Springsteen. Pasley’s song was fun…wonder if you could line dance to it…or is it better as a two step. Elvis doing Winter Wonderland was not bad, but I am partial to his version of Blue Christmas (and the updated version with Martina McBride…great editing there!) is not bad at all! Aaron’s upbeat Christmas tune does get ones foot a-tappen!
