Here's something to get you into the holiday spirit:
Oh Holy Night
Josh Groban has an amazing voice!

Oh my, that takes me back. My French Canadian uncle who had the most beautiful baritone used to sing this every Christmas Eve at the family gathering at my grandparents. He sang it in French, of course. "Minuit Chretien". Still brings tears to my eyes. BTW, my British grandmother used to make the Tortiere for her daughter every year as my aunt was not a very good cook. Tortiere is traditional for French families to eat after Midnight Mass.

That is such a great story, Diat! Now, please explain what Tortiere is!

Just realized I spelt it wrong - should be "tourtiere". It's basically a meat pie, made from a mixture of minced beef and pork. Here's a link to a recipe: http://allrecipes.com/recipe/20752/fren ... tourtiere/

These are a couple of videos I came across a couple weeks back from reddit about singers/bands that were surprised by the audience.

In this one the singer has a bit of trouble starting the song and the audience gives her a bit of hand.

This one it's their first live show in the US, they expected no one to know their music,

Those are great, Stiler! I especially like the one with Boy!

I repost this every December and it's still one of my favorites...

The first song had me in tears. Couldn't understand the words but the sentiment was there in spades. Lovely voice. Second group were lovely too - her reaction was priceless.
Thanks for sharing, Stiler.
