Wow Auspy I haven't heard that song in a very very long time. Ummm!!! reminds me of what the atmosphere must be building up like now in Naija this Christmas. Thanks for posting.

[valteena]

Rest in peace Michael. That sweet and innocent voice of his.

[valteena]

Love this funky Destiny child version of these two songs.

[valteena]

Timeless classic by my all time boy band Boyz II Men. Enjoy.

[valteena]

My Christmas song won't be complete without my main and all time crush and man Brian McKnight. Just love everything about him. I die a million times just hearing his voice alone.

[Bill Carson]

Sure you know his collaboration song with Linda "don't know much. Love love that song.

This rockingest Christmas single that pays tribute to Soul music's greats (singers and musicians) along the way, and in which the highly unsung Graham Parker pairs up with former Bluebelle/Labelle member Nona Hendryx is specially for you Billy, my most woskedly karid fellow.

[valteena]

Brook Benton was always a great influence on the world's best-known acappella group, so it was inevitable that the Persuasions would tackle this Benton seasonal classic on their only Christmas album. Enjoy.

[valteena]

Another classic Christmas tune. Awesome

[valteena]

Very down to earth easy to relate to Christmas performance by Kim and Mel

[valteena]

The snow sure makes this top tune very Christmas y. Enjoy.

[valteena]

Another epic Christmas song.

[valteena]

"Do They Know It's Christmas?" is a song written by Bob Geldof and Midge Ure in 1984 to raise money for relief of the 1984-1985 famine in Ethiopia. It became the fastest- selling single of all time in the UK, selling a million copies in the first week alone. It stayed at No. 1 for five weeks, selling over three million copies and becoming easily the biggest-selling single of all time in the UK. Such a classic song.

Love the song in spite what some have termed a contradiction and insensitivity of the lyrical part "Well tonight, thank God it's them instead of you!" in this charity cavalcade .

[valteena]

Yet another great rendition of same song by different artists Cosby, Dean and Doris Day added to this collection.

[valteena]

I love this great and classic Christmas feel good song by The Ronettes comprising of Ronnie Spector, Estelle Bennett & Nadra Talley.

[valteena]

This song by Carla Thomas though share similar title with Mariah Carey's "All I want for Christmas is You" is not the same song. I love Mariah and she is a class act herself, but wow!! wow!! she can't touch this one. Another beautiful Christmas song of pure class, touches your very soul. Enjoy.

[valteena]

The one and only Brook Benton himself belting out his "You're All I Want for Christmas". Simply beautiful.

[Bill Carson]

When boys were boys and girls knew what will happen to them if they loose-guide!

Eartha Kitt, anyone?

She died (was it, last year or so?)

She was the only one who could give Santa a boner!

Ummm!!! Auspy nice one this. I see Eartha Kitt as the black version of Marilyn Monroe projecting the image of a slinky sex kitten. Her throaty purr of a voice is quiet unique and I love it.


Enjoy Ella Fitzgerald

[valteena]

Freddie King was one of the first bluesmen to employ a racially integrated group on-stage behind him and his catchy instrumentals became an instant bandstand fodder for fellow bluesmen and white rock bands alike in the 60s. He is also said to have greatly influenced the likes of Eric Clapton, Mick Taylor, Stevie Ray Vaughan, and Lonnie Mack, among many others.

[valteena]

Talking about Eric Clapton, here is one from him. Enjoy

[valteena]

Great vocals. Real soul at its best I'll say.

[valteena]

Popularly known as the king of the endless boogie, John Lee Hooker is a genuine blues superstar whose droning, hypnotic one-chord grooves were both ultra-primitive and timeless. Enjoy.

[valteena]

This is a nice one by the Drifters.

[valteena]

I present you with the lady with the the most powerful voice in music and greatest of all modern blues singers, Etta James
