What’s your favourite carol?
Just heard on the T.V. that in a survey of favourite carols for a couple of UK radio stations “O holy night” came out top. This was a bit of a surprise but my own guess is that people were voting on the tune rather than anything else.
I love a good Christmas carol myself and think they are an ideal way to celebrate the Christmas season. Carols are: uplifting, fun and they tell you something about the real Christmas story.
Personally, I’m not sure that “O holy night” qualifies as a carol (more of a Christmas song I would have thought).
Just in case you are interested, here is the top 5
1. O holy night
2. Silent Night
3. In the bleak mid-winter (to Darke’s tune).
4. Hark the herald!
5. In the bleak mid-winter (to Holst’s tune).
What is your favourite?
