There's one, I think it's called The Gift. I've been trying to find who sings it. I found the lyrics, and where Garth Brooks sang it, but there's a version out with a girl singing it that I absolutely love. The last line contains "the very first nightingale's song." ANy help would be greatly appreciated.

Other than that, what are some of your favorite Christmas songs?

Finally found it. Aselin Debison.

I like the classics. Burl Ives.. Bing Crosby, etc.

Virtually the entire Carpenters' "A Christmas Portrait" album.
