Had not heard of the Chorus until I watched A Chosen Christmas: We are Messengers. These kids are great.

I've always liked this one:

""I Heard the Bells on Christmas Day" is a Christmas carol based on the 1863 poem "Christmas Bells" by American poet Henry Wadsworth Longfellow. The song tells of the narrator hearing Christmas bells during the American Civil War, but despairing that "hate is strong and mocks the song of peace on earth, good will to men". After much anguish and despondency the carol concludes with the bells ringing out with resolution that "God is not dead, nor doth He sleep" and that there will ultimately be "...peace on earth, good will to men".

On the serious side, I've always loved "Carol of the Bells." It was ripped off by an American composer when the Ukrainian National Choir sang it at Carnegie Hall 100 years ago. Here is the original, Shchedryk, sung in original Ukrainian, by Lithuanians, in a big FU to Russia.

Wow...that was beautiful...

and ... a shout out to the Ruskies

That's actually a waitress I had in Kaunas when the Russians I was with asked her if she spoke Russian when trying to order.

Posted earlier, but NOBODY sings this song, the best Christmas song in my opinion,better than the man who wrote it, Mark Lowry. Voctave with him here is incredible, but then he holds a note for nearly twenty seconds, at age 60. Mic drop.
