    Thanks, Lady_Lucas! Those are some pretty lyrics.

    I've probably got one of the most twisted Christmas albums ever. If you hear it once you'll either love it or hate it.

    Tales From the Crypt: Have Yourself A Scary Little Christmas

    It includes such favorites as...

    Deck the Halls with Parts of Charlie
    We Wish You'd Bury The Missus
    Twas The Fright Before Christmas


    ...and other great Cryptmas songs. And just in time for that special New Year celebration...
    Should Old Cadavers Be Forgot!


    Some more information about the movie Scrooge that I totally forgot to mention...

    In the unedited version the part of the Ghost of Jacob Marley, played by Sir Alec Guiness, is much larger. And he really does a great job as Marley's Ghost!

    If you've not seen him in anything else and were curious, it's good useful infomation to have.

    beautiful music...sounds a little creepy for Christmas! :)

    Here's another I love:

    It Came Upon a Midnight Clear
    ===============================

    It came upon the midnight clear,
    That glorious song of old,
    From angels bending near the earth
    To touch their harps of gold:
    "Peace on the earth, good will to men,
    From heaven's all-gracious King."
    The world in solemn stillness lay
    To hear the angels sing.

    Still through the cloven skies they come
    With peaceful wings unfurled,
    And still their heavenly music floats
    O'er all the weary world;
    Above its sad and lowly plains
    They bend on hovering wing,
    And ever o'er its Babel-sounds
    The blessed angels sing.

    Yet with the woes of sin and strife
    The world has suffered long;
    Beneath the heavenly strain have rolled
    Two thousand years of wrong;
    And man, at war with man, hears not
    The tidings which they bring;
    O hush the noise, ye men of strife,
    And hear the angels sing!

    O ye, beneath life's crushing load,
    Whose forms are bending low,
    Who toil along the climbing way
    With painful steps and slow,
    Look now! for glad and golden hours
    Come swiftly on the wing;
    O rest beside the weary road
    And hear the angels sing!

    For lo! the days are hastening on,
    By prophets seen of old,
    When with the ever-circling years
    Shall come the time foretold,
    When peace shall over all the earth
    Its ancient splendors fling,
    And the whole world give back the song
    Which now the angels sing.
