    Favorite carol - A couple are On Christmas Night, The Holly and the Ivy, but there are others.

    Favorite song - I have a few. John Williams "Somewhere in My Memory" , Dave Edmonds " London's a Lonely Town" and Elton John's "Step Into Christmas".

    Baby Its Cold Outside... Any Christmas song about a guy trying to get laid is OK in my book!
