The Beast's All-Time Favorite Christmas Song
Carol of the Bells
Although mine and Rex's lists have been fairly different, we came to the same conclusion on our favoirite Christmas song of all time. Carol of the Bells has been my favorite for a very, very long time. Although the other songs on my list will fluctuate all the time, it will take something very special to knock this song off my top spot. As Rex mentioned, the Trans-Siberian Orchestra has the definitive instrumental version of this Christmas classic. However, my favorite version is a vocal version by the one and only Kenny Rogers. His "three-syllable" inflection on the word "away" pumps me up every time I hear it. (By the way, Kenny also has a great version of O Holy Night). Take a listen to Kenny's version when you get a chance, and then definitely listen to Trans-Siberian Orchestra and enjoy this great song once again!
