http://uk.encarta.msn.com/encnet/Features/Lists/?article=12Days The 12 days of Christmas has been a popular seasonal song for many years,but it's not entirely clear what the references within the song are about..is it simply about the eating,drinking and entertainment we associate with this season,or is there a religous subtext beneath? this article goes through both..what do you think? A Party time song,or food for thought?
