Christmas Sing Along-Acc Girls

<I want a hippopotamus for Christmas>-performed by Gayla Peevey

http://tw.youtube.com/watch?v=7oOzszFIBcE&feature=related

She was 10 years old when she sang this song in 1953.
This hit was recorded as a fund-raiser to bring the city zoo a hippo.

Lyrics:
I want a hippopotamus for Christmas
Only a hippopotamus will do
Don't want a doll, no dinky Tinker Toy
I want a hippopotamus to play with and enjoy

I want a hippopotamus for Christmas
I don't think Santa Claus will mind, do you?
He won't have to use our dirty chimney flue
Just bring him through the front door,
that's the easy thing to do

I can see me now on Christmas morning,
creeping down the stairs
Oh what joy and what surprise
when I open up my eyes
to see a hippo hero standing there

I want a hippopotamus for Christmas
Only a hippopotamus will do
No crocodiles, no rhinoceroses
I only like hippopotamuses
And hippopotamuses like me too

Mom says the hippo would eat me up, but then
Teacher says a hippo is a vegetarian

There's lots of room for him in our two-car garage
I'd feed him there and wash him there and give him his massage

I can see me now on Christmas morning,
creeping down the stairs
Oh what joy and what surprise
when I open up my eyes
to see a hippo hero standing there

I want a hippopotamus for Christmas
Only a hippopotamus will do
No crocodiles or rhinoceroseses
I only like hippopotamuseses
And hippopotamuses like me too!

Merry Christmas!

I don't want a lot for Christmas

There's just one thing I need

I don't care about presents

Underneath the Christmas tree

I just want you for my own

More than you could ever know

Make my wish come true ...

All I want for Christmas

Is you...



I don't want a lot for Christmas

There is just one thing I need

I don't care about presents

Underneath the Christmas tree

I don't need to hang my stocking

There upon the fireplace

Santa Claus won't make me happy

With a toy on Christmas day

I just want you for my own

More than you could ever know

Make my wish come true

All I want for Christmas is you...

You baby



I won't ask for much this Christmas

I won't even wish for snow

I'm just gonna keep on waiting

Underneath the mistletoe

I won't make a list and send it

To the North Pole for Saint Nick

I won't even stay awake to

Hear those magic reindeer click

'Cause I just want you here tonight

Holding on to me so tight

What more can I do

Baby all I want for Christmas is you

You...



All the lights are shining

So brightly everywhere

And the sound of children's

Laughter fills the air

And everyone is singing

I hear those sleigh bells ringing

Santa won't you bring me the one I really

need

won't you please bring my baby to me...



Oh I don't want a lot for Christmas

This is all I'm asking for

I just want to see baby

Standing right outside my door

Oh I just want him for my own

More than you could ever know

Make my wish come true

Baby all I want for Christmas is

You...



All I want for Christmas is you baby... (Repeat)

wish everyone have a happy christmas )_(

Christmas Sing Along-- Bourgoesie

group:  Bourgoesie members:  Lynn, Jennifer, Gina, Fan   Do They Know It's Christmas   It's a meaning for song.  It's a song for the Africa refugees, because they were suffered from famine.  Many singers took parts in this chores, just like Taiwan's 明天會更好 & 手牽手.  The song had a big influence on the world. A lot of people donated money to the refugees.  It has two versions. In 2005, the song was sung again by other singers, but U2's leader vocal, Bono, is the only person who took in the two versions.     It's Christmastime There's no need to be afraid At Christmastime We let in light and we banish shade And in our world of plenty We can spread a smile of joy Throw your arms around the world at Christmastime But say a prayer Pray for the other ones at Christmastime it's hard But when you're having fun There's a world outside your window And it's a world of dread and fear Where the only water flowing is the bitter sting of tears And the Christmas bells that ring There are the clanging chimes of doom Well tonight thank God, it's them instead of you And there won't be snow in Africa this Christmastime The greatest gift they'll get this year is life Ooh Where nothing ever grows No rain nor rivers flow Do they know it's Christmastime at all ( Here's to you ) raise a glass for everyone ( Here's to them ) underneath that burning sun Do they know it's Christmastime at all Feed the world, feed the world, feed the world Let them know it's Christmastime again Feed the world Let them know it's Christmastime again   http://tw.youtube.com/watch?v=8jEnTSQStGE 2005 version   http://tw.youtube.com/watch?v=edWDbWdxsxE 1984 version If you cannot see the vedios or link to the websites, you can go to Youtube and surf it.    Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Lyrics:

Amazing grace! How sweet the sound

That saved a soul like me.

I once was lost but now am found,

Was blind but now I see.



'Twas grace that taught my heart to fear,

And grace my fears relieved,

How precious did that grace appear,

The hour I first believed.



When we've been there ten thousands years.

Bright shining as the sun.

We've no less days to sing God's praise.

Than when we've first begun.

Introduction:
    The singer of this song is Ashanti, and its' in her "Ashanti's Christmas" album.
Before she was going to make this album, Ashanti asked her producer, "Can you bring
me something good.  " And then it was.  Throughout the ten-track disc, she plods
through both old and new holiday tunes -- from the monotonous original "Christmas
Time Again" to flat renditions of "The Christmas Song" and "Joy to the World.  " The
thin-piped songbird nearly redeems herself, however, on the sentimental "Time of
Year" and karaoke-worthy covers of Donny Hathaway's "This Christmas" and the old
standby "Silent Night.

[Chorus]
Rockin' robin (tweet tweet tweet)

Every little swallow, every chickadee
Every little bird in the tall oak tree
The wise old owl, the big black crow
Flapping them wings sayin' go bird go

[Chorus]

A wordy little raven at the bird's first dance
Taught him how to do the bop and it was grand
He started goin' steady and bless my soul
He out popped the buzzard and the oriole

Hoppin' and a-boppin' and a-singin' the song
All the little birds on J-Bird St.
Love to hear the robin goin' tweet tweet tweet

Song: Santa Clause Is Coming To Town

 

Lyrics:

 

Oh you better watch out

You better not cry

You better not  pout
I'm telling you why

Santa Clause is coming to town

 

 

 

He's making a list

He's checking it twice

He's gonna find out who's naughty and nice

Santa Clause is coming to town

 He see's you when you're sleeping

He knows when you're awake

He knows if you've been bad or good,

So you better be good for goodness sake


You better watch out
You better not cry
You better not pout
I'm telling you why

Santa Clause is coming to town

 

 

 

Recording:

"Santa Claus Is Coming to Town" (sometimes with Coming changed to Comin') is a Christmas song. It was written by J. Fred Coots and Haven Gillespie, and was first sung on Eddie Cantor's radio show in November 1934. It became an instant hit with orders for 100,000 copies of sheet music the next day and over 400,000 copies sold by Christmas.

The earliest known recorded version of the song was performed by George Happle and the Hotel Taft Orchestra (featuring Sonny Schuyler on vocals) in 1934. It was mostly an instrumental except for a 35-second vocal by Schuyler. The version shown in the Variety charts of December 1934 was Harry Reser featuring Tom Stacks on vocal. The song was an obvious sheet music hit, reaching #1. Surprisingly, no 1934 version achieved exceptional record sales. The song was also recorded on September 26, 1935, by Tommy Dorsey & His Orchestra. Many believe that Benny Goodman was the first to record the song, but in 1935 Goodman actually recorded the Johnny Mercer tune, "Santa Claus Came In The Spring." Goodman never recorded "Santa Claus Is Coming to Town."

The song is a traditional standard at Christmas time, and has been covered by numerous recording artists. In 1970 Rankin-Bass produced an hour-long animated television special based on the song, with narrator Fred Astaire telling the original story of Santa Clause.
