Can't beat the Latin equivalent of O Come All Ye Faithful, which we always sang at my school's carol service.

    And as you can guess, the M-G is voting for O Come All Ye Faithful.

    Not ME!! I'm a Ave Maria fan.... Nutin' better than Ol' Deceased Pavarotti beltin' out that little ditty.... OR them little Vy-eenie Choir Fellers.. Brings a tear to my eye so it does... Honestly, it's my favorite song of the Christmas Season.... Gran'ma Got Runned Over By a Reindeer only comes across a distant second ;)

     

    Corki.. lest you think me truly ignorant. The Gregorian Chant assertion was just a little exaggeration on my part.... I should have known your English Humour Handicap would have caused you to miss the sardonic wit contained within my comment 8)

    O Come All Ye Faithful!

     

     

    My Methodist ears have never heard the David's City song either. But I bet my sister the Episcopalian has...they have closer ties with the Mother Church.  ;D

    Ave maria for this good little Traditional Lutheran as well! 

     

    And while I agree it isn't really a carol per say..it is one of the most recognizable hymns of the Christmas Season..and since carols originally where hymns..that would make it a carol?  Hmm?

     

    But it is close..My school choir tradition was a processional to Adeste Fideles!

    O Come All Ye Faithful scraps through to the next round by 4 votes to 3 (I am including Daetirion's vote).

    Argh!  When we were kids  we lived for the "OOOOOOOOOOO, star of wonder, star of night, star with royal beauty bright"! That "OOOOO" was the best!

    *sighs* 

    But, well, really, I mean, "Silent Night", man.  No "Silent Night" - no Christmas.  So it's gotta be [glow=gold,2,300][glow=red,2,300]"Silent Night". [/glow] [/glow] *nods*

    I have to go for  "We Three Kings"..if only for the potential for silliness and all the "other versions" we could sing ;)

    You mean like

     

    We three kings of Orient are

    Tryin to smoke this rubber cigar? ...

     

    It gets my vote at any rate...

    AND..for taking perfectly lovely carols and finding a perversion of them!  *giggles*

     

     

    SILENT NIGHT!!!

    Pre-emptive voting i know, but it should still count!

     

    Oh and We 3 Kings

     

    Silent night is too dire, especially in the original German.
