Me? My most favorite is Bobby Darin, hee. But I'm also a fan of Elvis and the Monkees and the Beatles. Which is good, since my husband is a huge Beatles fan. Both he and I prefer the music of our parents' generation to our own -- one of the reasons we fit so well together, IHamlette (Rachel)https://www.blogger.com/profile/11961916847426233995noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6506048107929554518.post-29221698546504823382013-12-10T21:46:16.016-07:002013-12-10T21:46:16.016-07:00I just played his 'Oh Come All Ye Faithful&quo...I just played his 'Oh Come All Ye Faithful" to refresh my memory, and you're right, it's a delightful version. It must be nice having Elvis fans in the family.

It's got some amazing percussion, and backup singers doing some pretty angelic high notes. My dad has been an Elvis fan since he was a kid, and he used to repeat this song a bunch of times in the car every Christmastime.

All of Elvis' Christma...What a precious memory. All of Elvis' Christmas songs are wonderful, but I'm especially in love with this one. <br /><br />I haven't been an Elvis fan for very long, but Gene Autrey does it for me.
