The song's in your head now. You're welcome.

"On the seventh day of Christmas, mee-mee-mee-mee-mee-meeee ... " Good grief, but I do love the Muppets. The John Denver/Rolf the Dog cover of "Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas" is lovely, and more poignant than most versions. And yes, I'm listening to Christmas music. Have been for months, actually -- Jars of Clay's "Christmas Songs" is has a permanent place on my mp3 player. I find it soothing. But I do reserve the Muppets and the Charlie Brown soundtrack for November. The tree goes up next weekend, but I don't turn on the lights until Thanksgiving night. That's right -- I'm actually going to decorate this year! My cat's going to have a ball with all the sparkly things. Woot!

I listen to Christmas music all year, though most think I'm barking mad.

My personal favorites are "Sleigh Ride" by Mitch Miller, Andy Williams singing "Most wonderful time of the year" and "Chestnuts" by nat King Cole. I also love "Santa baby" by the very frightening Eartha Kitt.
