My surviving bros and I will be rehearsing Christmas songs today for a gig we have at the Quilters Guild. We will do some "sing-along" songs, like "Rudolph," but we will also do some more "serious" songs like "O Holy Night." We will only be playing for 45 minutes, which translates to about seven songs. What songs would you most want to hear if you were chilling away with your fellow quilters?

Do you know, “Mary, Did You Know?” That’s a serious one that gives me goose bumps.

I love old songs like O Holy Night but when with others and having a nice time, upbeat like Jingle Bells, Rudolph and silly like Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer.

Yeppers. We are trying to combine/alternate the more serious songs with the silly and fun ones we all know from childhood.

I like Carol of the Bells, but I am sure that would be a tough one.

It's easy on piano. I teach it to all of my kids. But it might be a tough one to sing.

@TheHorse Really? it seems like it has a number of rounds. Seems like it would be hard to play on a piano.

There's very few songs I don't sing along to when it comes to christmas music. One of my favorite is Winter Wonderland and the other was Silver Bells.

Since they are quilting indoors, I presume, maybe they wouldn't mind that song that says "let it snow, let it snow, let it snow".

For starters O Holy Night but for more fun songs maybe Rockin Around The Christmas Tree, Jingle Bell Rock and Marshmallow World Sounds like a really fun gig
