Natal - Christmas

Apetece-me fazer um post sobre canções de Natal. Christmas songs como dizem os estrangeiros que falam em inglês. Porque o Natal é quando um homem quiser. E eu sou um homem e quero que seja neste post. Uma pesquisazinha rápida no google (já dizia Lavoisier "Nada se cria, nada se perde, tudo se transforma"... e ele nem sabia que o google viria existir!) fez-me encontrar logo um site com Lyrics to the Top 101 Christmas Songs of All Time. O 1º lugar é para White Christmas de Bing Crosby. E o 101º para Let It Snow, Let It Snow, Let It Snow. Ao ver o top percebo como conheço poucas canções sobre o Natal.
E depois também encontrei um site com letras para muitas músicas... um site simples, só de texto, com o adequado nome de Christmas Songs e aproveitei para ir lá buscar alguns pedaços de letras que apreciei:

Canção: All I Want For Christmas Is My Two Front Teeth
All I want for Christmas is my two front teeth, my two front teeth, see my two front teeth. Gee, if I could only have my two front teeth, then I could wish you "Merry Christmas!"

Canção: Frosty the Snow Man
Frosty the snowman knew the sun was hot that day, So he said, "Let's run and we'll have some fun now before I melt away." Down to the village, with a broomstick in his hand, Running here and there all around the square saying, Catch me if you can. He led them down the streets of town right to the traffic cop. And he only paused a moment when he heard him holler "Stop!" For Frosty the snow man had to hurry on his way, But he waved goodbye saying, "Don't you cry, I'll be back again some day." Thumpetty thump thump, thumpety thump thump, Look at Frosty go. Thumpetty thump thump, thumpety thump thump, Over the hills of snow.

Canção: Grandma Got Run Over By a Reindeer
A musica não é instrumental mas com um titulo destes nem é preciso transcrever lyrics.

Canção: I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus
I saw Mommy kissing Santa Claus Underneath the mistletoe last night. She didn't see me creep down the stairs to have a peep; She thought that I was tucked up in my bedroom fast asleep. Then, I saw Mommy tickle Santa Claus Underneath his beard so snowy white; Oh, what a laugh it would have been If Daddy had only seen Mommy kissing Santa Claus last night.

e por fim...

Canção: White Christmas
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas Just like the ones I used to know Where the treetops glisten and children listen To hear sleigh bells in the snow. I'm dreaming of a white Christmas With every Christmas card I write May your days be merry and bright And may all your Christmases be white.
