Some of these are beyond the normal Christmas carols & hymns. I'll give you the answers in a couple of days.
THINK YOU KNOW YOUR CHRISTMAS MUSIC???
All of the songs are listed in alphabetical order by their real titles, excluding the words “and” and “the”. Also, any songs beginning with the word “Oh” or “O” are spelled “O” for consistency. There are traditional carols and hymns, modern seasonal songs, advent anthems, madrigals, and several from Handel’s Messiah. There are even several ringers from Benjamin Britten’s Old English carol collection (No…I couldn’t come up with a clue for Balulalow!!!) Good luck!!!! :^p~~~~~~~~~~!

According to Z Pup Pup Boogie..... I think one of posted already that she did add that to the song on Sunday.

I know I'm slow, but I just released the stupidity of the Hanukkah songs that our teacher made us sing for the Christmas concert in elementary school. Not a holiday concert, but a Christmas concert.
It's okay. I'm tired too. I may not have been clear. Just think: Cute Z reference.
I know a few folks in Nursing but not too many. Interesting since I teach a lot of their students.
I can most assuredly say I am going to fail at this game.Some of these are beyond the normal Christmas carols & hymns. I'll give you the answers in a couple of days.

It finally struck me (35 years later) that several songs we sang for our elementary Christmas concert, around 5th grade, was Jewish Hanukkah songs. The music teacher said they were songs Jewish people sung for Christmas. She didn't last long and we never did it again. It finally struck me when I saw your list and there is this Hanukkah song I keep humming to myself. I had to play the xylophone for it. When I get in the Christmas mood, I'd sing it. I knew better, but I finally realized why I always hummed it for Christmas music.
She may have sang part of the correct song, but made sure to sing Pup Pup Boogie too.
Hhhhhmmmmmm.......call yourself a chemist............talk about going to Albuquerque.............some pieces starting to come together, Walter.
The list was done for an annual open house we attend after Christmas Eve services...most of the attendees are choir members who have sung together for many years, and also participated in high school & college choirs/bands/orchestras (which is why there are some tougher ones in there). I have some secular songs on the list, but I don't think there are any Hanukkah-specific songs. Other than falling around the same time of year, the two religious observances really have no connection.
2000 here. Chemistry, so I spent most of my college life in Gilman Hall. Who did you have for Organic Chem? I had Trahanovsky, who was also my counselor.

Didn't mean you had anything. I just saw the list and starting humming it and that's when I realized it. I'm not good at Christmas stuff. Not a very big fan of the holidays, probably since I had my big Christmas years during the farm crises. Also having a 5 year older sister that wanted to destroy any mythical things for her younger brother didn't help.
I know. I was just explaining the origins of the list and the reasons for what was/was not included.
