12-I... I... I...

Another great batch of Christmas songs today from the Internet Archive, this time loosely themed around the first person point of view. I this and I that. I've this and I'll that. You'll feel personally connected to the season after taking in all these great tracks.  Have a listen and let me know what you think.

  2. I was expecting "I Want a Hippopotamus for Christmas" but no ungulate.

  3. I`m out of here. At least for this year. Since I know ARCHIVE very well, I can get all those things there ... no need to grab it here. May God give you the strength to bring back the good things you had the years before in 2021. Until then, goodbye from a disappointed collector.

  5. Hey Anonymous, thanks for letting us know your dissatisfaction with the shares and that you are leaving. We'll miss you! If you find a blog that gives you what you want, let us know!

    Buster-The Hippo Song is pretty common, I tried to stay away from such things. Although I think I did give into temptation and grabbed the flip side which will show up here at some point.

    Beth & Greg, Thanks for stopping by, hope you're enjoying the tunes!

    Geordie-You can't please some people. :(

  7. I for one like the themes. Well, done, Ernie. Songs are hit or miss, but I'm appreciative of the curation!

  8. Ernie, just letting you know that your ongoing efforts are ALWAYS on my check-it-out list. All the work you do is big-time appreciated. I've been following you since '06 (or '05?) and rely on you for bringing the fun. The commentary is frequently more than worth the visit, along with the publishing minutia.
