I am waiting for December 10 to start listening to Christmas Carols. We have a huge collection. No particular reason why that date is chosen but our preparations for Christmas start from that date such as thorough cleaning of the house, planning on what sweets to make, what decorations to put up et al. No doubt I had to listen to them while getting the pen drive ready for that party to welcome Santa. Incidentally this time we will be having Mrs Santa. When do you start listening to carols and what is your favourite carol? I like to listen to Nat King Cole and that Ave Maria by Nana Mouskori

Usually after the end of Thanksgiving is when the Christmas music begins.

Normally I start my decorating and stuff between the day after Thanksgiving and December 5th. But this year we are running a bit behind.

I have noticed that. When I was holidaying in the US the Malls were loaded with Christmas stuff right from October. I bought loads of decorations.

Usually a couple of days before Christmas, my favorite carol "Adeste Fideles" and in Latin, not the English version "O Come, All Ye Faithful".

We have sung that in both languages in the choir and yes those and many other carols are a part of the Xmas celebration here.

@allknowing We used to sing those carols in school, the day before the school closed for the Christmas Holidays.

That's interesting that you're having a Mrs Santa. I'm not sure which carol is my favorite. There is a little-known one 'There is no Room (in town tonight)'. I do like that one.

That's a great song. I love to hear the Christmas carols sung by The Lennon Sisters.
