If you click on the picture below it will give you a play list. From there you can listen to the charts that were used in the 2010 show. It scrolls through the album covers pretty quick.
Christmas With A Capital C
Neat chart by the group Go Fish telling the real reason for CHRISTMAS.
Joy To The World
Another neat chart by the group Go Fish.
A Mad Russian's Christmas (Instrumental)
I did a little editing on this chart to shorten it.
Let It Snow, Let It Snow, Let It Snow
Great jazzy chart from Harry. Has a really kicking middle section with great horn licks.
Stille Nacht (Silent Night)
I have "Linus" from the "Peanuts - A Charlie Brown Christmas" reading the Christmas Story over the top of this song. Thanks to Darren from www.ChristmasOnCrystalSprings.com for the idea and audio.
Blue Christmas
This is a GREAT chart. Has become a true favorite of mine.
Carol of the Bells
I actually do 2 different version. One by David Foster and another by Monique Danielle. I already had the David Foster version in the show, when I discovered the mp3 of Moniquie's in my Zara Radio playlist! So...I did a sequence for it on 12/12/10. Little late, but I had actually looked for that chart earlier.
Believe - In Holiday Magic
I LOVE this chart. This one is actually from the Disney World and Disneyland Christmas fireworks show. Here is the reference to that chart; http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Believe..._In_Holiday_Magic . It is an edited chart that contains the following songs in it;
Following "Can You Remember" is the fanfare from the Mickey Mouse Club March, then instrumental excerpts from various Christmas carols and a Hanukkah song, including:

This is video of the show from Disneyland. The female voice you here in the beginning and ending is used with several songs on Disney properties. Her voice alone made me want to do this song.
The Chipmunk Song (Christmas Don't Be Late)
Added this late (12/13/10). Wanted to have at least one for the kiddies ;-) I like this one.
Sleigh Ride
This is one of my show openers. The selection I have is actually from a 8 cd set called "151 Seasonal Favorites". Has A BUNCH of the classics on there. This version of Sleigh Ride is actually a little shorter than the original, but is fine for one of the openers. I have a voice greeting on this as well.
Jingle Bells (Pierpont)
Aaahh the "Swing Era". Man I love this music. Just wish I had time to sequence the whole thing. Not sure if some people would appreciate it though. LOTS of "ad lib" stuff and for some folks it would be "Chrismtasy" enough....so I used it for a opener with a voice greeting. Still good stuff though!
"O Holy Night" by Trombone Shorty
This is off a TV show called "Studio 60". Show was a take off of a "Saturday Night Live" type of format. Kind of a behind the scenes show with all of the drama along with it.
I had the actual footage from the show on this, but as normal...YouTube pulled it. This is from Vimeo. Someone posted this from a church service that they used the chart with.
This is used as the last song of the night telling everyone "Good Night" and also telling about the website info.
