This post really has nothing to do with Nutcracker, it is a general list of Christmas songs.
In DIYC there was a thread about "What songs are you using this year".
http://doityourselfchristmas.com/forums/showthread.php?21058-Lets-talk-Songs!&p=220947#post220947 (http://doityourselfchristmas.com/forums/showthread.php?21058-Lets-talk-Songs)
Almost 200 songs were posted into the thread.
i decided that i could use this list of songs in nutcracker for my projects.
so ...
i have parsed all of the songs from the emails, eliminated duplicates, loaded them into a database. There were 162 songs. If a song was done by multiple artists, they get their own row. Regular polls would probably not work so well for this many entries so i built a form.
Go to http://meighan.net/nutcracker/effects/xmas_songs.php (http://meighan.net/nutcracker/effects/xmas_songs.php)
Click on every song you plan on using this year (If you are ryan johnson your wrist will get tired from the clicking)
Submit the form and your vote is tallied. The more people who do this, the more reflective of the overall usage of songs in sequencers. Look under the "Votes" column to see the current count.
A user can only vote for one song once, but you can vote for all 162 if your are going to be really busy.
If people see errors, post them here or pm me.
also when referring to a song please reference my SongID, it will make it easier.
Please post the URL's to amazon for listening to these songs, this will make it easy for people to browse the Christmas Song library.
thanks

It took less than two hours to cut paste, parse , load, create form.
I can use this data in my Nutcracker Projects so i thought others might find a use for it also. I have found some songs i now will want to do, thanks to this list.
So, please suggest more songs. We have 162 now.
if you do sggest a song it would be nice to have song name artist and ideally a link to amazon (or wherever people would buy it from)

Some people objected to having to log in to Nutcracker to see the Christmas song list.
here is a read only view (You cant vote here), but it does show all the current songs and the votes and it does not require any log in to Nutcracker

I have added links to nearly 85 more songs.
Now:
167 total songs
50 do not yet have link to the music.
If you know the llink to a song, could you post it here?
Please include songid and link. That makes it easier for me to know I am on right row
