For December the Monday’s Mewsic Moves Me theme is Christmas each week except for the last Monday of the month. All-aboard the Christmas Express. No Grinches or Scrooges allowed to ride, if you’re mean and grumpy, then you don’t wanna ride this train cause it’s meant for the jolly folks only.
The second Monday of the month last December I used a vintage collection of Christmas mewsic to honor my late MIL’s birthday. I’m doing another vintage collection but not quite that far back instead I’m going back to 1961, my birth year since it’s my birthday and who better to sing to me than those cute little furballs – Theodore, Simon, and Alvin! Let’s get this party started!
I didn’t build this playlist but it’s supposedly the Chipmunk’s first Christmas album. The song tracks listed:
- Here Comes Santa Claus
- Up On the House Top
- Silver Bells
- Rudolph, The Red-Nosed Reindeer
- Jingle Bells
- Over the River and Through the Woods
- Santa Claus I Comin’ To Town
- It’s Beginning to Look Like Christmas
- Frosty the Snow Man
- White Christmas
- The Chipmunk Song (Christmas Don’t Be Late)
- We Wish You a Merry Christmas

This month’s honorary co-hostess is Marie from Xmas Dolly

Late last night I noticed Marie left a comment on my site. Her computer died and she was trying to get her laptop going with a number of issues going on with that, so if you don’t see our hostess boogieing then this is why.ย Let’s say a prayer that she gets things smoothed over quickly. Dealing with technically problems is such a headache!
DISCLOSURE…this is a mewsic linky party, which means all participates are sharing songs that one can listen to from YouTube or Vimeo and a not a post about mewsic or mewsicians. ย Failure to meet this basic guideline puts your URL in danger of being removed or labeled โ NO MUSIC.ย

DH and I are doing it again. *wild crazy smile on face* We’re on staycation this week! *clap hands with glee* Traffic in Blogosphere is slow during December generally so this is a good time to be away. Our weather looks ify, so I’m not sure what we’ll do but one thing for sure is, we need to get Christmas gifts ordered and shipped. It’s almost mid-month. But first, today is someone’s birthday and although a certain someone offered to make the birthday girl a cake, she declined the sweet offer with already too much holiday candy in the house. Instead, she requested Rocky Road ice cream for her birthday treat but after a certain someone asked again about the cake, they both got the idea of getting a box of lunch cakes so she wouldn’t miss out on the tradition. ๐ I might not be here officially but I’m not leaving you high and dry. You’ll find schedules each day, so be sure to swing by tomorrow for my second Battle of the Bands. That’s a wrap for now. Have a boogietastic week! X๐X๐, Cathy

I was here earlier this week and thought I commented – I’m so sorry! “Happy Birthday, Merry Christmas” is a nice song for those of us born on or near Christmas, which includes (or included) me, my late mother in law, one of my late grandparents, and my sister in law. And Alvin and the Chipmunks’ big hit is still so popular – just something about that song! I had never heard more than that one song.
Kitties in stockings are so cute! Wishing you a happy birthday, one day late.
Love,
Janie
Happy Birthday, Cathy, and have a lovely staycation! ๐ฅณ

Looks like only 5 of the 12 songs made it. Guess someone left… But still, it’s a classic LP.
Happy birthday!
