@Jlohss: I am listening to this because my Mother used to love this song and would tell me how it was written about the soldiers (of which my Father was one in WWII). Needless to say, I can only visit them at the cemetary....don't wait, you never know when something could happen.
For all those who won't be home for Christmas this year, as they are having Christmas with Jesus. Just because you aren't physically here, doesn't mean we will think of you any less. xxx
I am 27 years old and grew up with music like this. Deano and Frank were very common to hear especially at Christmas! Unfortunately, the years have not been kind at all to my mom and I's relationship. In fact even at a time like this, just a few short days before Christmas, we are once again not speaking to one another. How I miss those days as a child when we made cookies together and decorated the house and anxiously waited for Santa to come. Hopefully next Christmas finds us better off!
I know we'll find a place to stay by Christmas. My dad might not be there, my grandmother might not be there, and there may not be a lot of physical gifts being exchanged. But I'll be home. Even if it's just a cheap hotel room. Love you, Mom. Merry Christmas.
It is not denial, it is taking a trip back to a gentler time. Denial suggests that this feeling never existed. It did exist; even for the folks who fought discrimination back then. It was still a gentler time than Today If only at Christmas.
i cried my eyes out to this song when it came on and i was in the shithole that was Iraq during christmas time when i was in the army...this song really hits me and i guess it will for the rest of my life.
@XkriskrossX The old German government is dead. So are most of the people. The people born in 1945 had nothing to do with the tragedies of WW1 or WW2.
DONT READ THIS CUS IT ACTUALLY WORKS. YOU WILL BE KISSED ON THE NEAREST FIDAY POSSIBLE BY THE LOVE OF YOUR LIFE. TOMORROW WILL BE THE BEST DAY OF YOU LIFE. HOWEVER IF YOU DON NOT POST THIS ON AT LEAST 5 VIDEOS YOU WILL DIE WITHIN 2 DAYS. NOW UV STARTED READING THIS DONT STOP THIS IS SO SCARY. POST THIS ON AT LEAST 5 VIDEOS IN 143 MINUTES. WHEN YOUR DONE PRESS F6 AND YOUR LOVERS NAME WILL APPEAR ON THE SCREEN IN BIG LETTERS. THIS IS SO SCARY CUASE IT WORKS
I love how it starts with the choir singing the rhythm of "Silent Night", which is in three, but of course this song is four....totally threw me off the first time I heard it. What great arrangements, and I don't have to mention how good Sinatra sounds, just listen to the guy....
When it comes to recording Christmas music, today's artists seem to have lost something that these old artists had. Maybe it's a true reverence for Christmas and what it means.
@jamesah123 There were probably a number of artists from the era that Sinatra is from who recorded Christmas music that was as emotionless and vapid as the ones we hear from our artists today- none of those songs survived to today. The reason we think that era was better is cuz the only singers we have to compare are the greats among them that survived all the way until today. But I do agree with you this: Sinatra is a genius.
it is september of 2011 and i was singing this song and got yelled at cause it isnt christmas.........so i simply said no present for you sir and sang louder as i walked off
Frank Sinatra was the best singer that has existed for my voice is very sweet Christmas songs that touch your heart and make you the true ilucion Senir of Christmas that God blesses you and happy holidays to all
@elisabethann82 thats not fun. i wish he was home for you. i don't have a hubby, but i have a dad and i don't know what id do if he weren't home for christmas. :( i hope your christmas is great all the same :)
don't know you elisabethann82 - But I'll be praying for his safety this Christmas. Be sure to tell him thank you for his service from a woman in Texas
I know it won't sound so intimate being over the internet, but I really want to wish everyone out there, everyone, an especially Merry Christmas. May all your New Year dreams come true. Remember that there really are such things as second chances and don't be afraid to hope for the future. God love you. :)
Even though that home I'll always remember doesn't exist for me anymore.I'll always be home for Christmas in my dreams.Thank you Frank.God bless you all this christmas.
Frank, Bing, Nat and all the old croud... this is the way christmas should be sung... sigh... I miss my parents and my grandparents and aunts and uncles.... many years past this was my christmas. Thank you for some wonderful memories. Merry Christmas everyone....
This is a stupid memory but, I remember my cat had been missing for 2 weeks and my dad was playing this on the Piano when my cat came in through the cat door on Christmas day.
@Microice109 dont go hatin on other ppl's taste in music jackass, we dont give a shit about your opinions but ill fight to the death for you to have right to free speech bitch. . . merry christmas and happy holidays to you and your family btw, best wishes too!! :)
I'm literally crying right now listening to this - i just can't wait to be home with my family for christmas! I just saw a charlie brown christmas for the first time ever and now! I LOVE CHRISTMAS! only 58 more days guys!!!!!! get in the spirit now!
@Katiekoolio aww me too. i have to wait till mid december before i can go home but im so excited. i love love this time of year. im already listening to all the music, lighting candles, put up lights in my dorm room :)
esti vai de tine.transilvania e a romanilor care au luptat pt libertatea ardelenilor,a milioanelor de romani morti pt patrie.gandeste inainte sa arunci cuvinte fara folos
@had3s89 sunt vai de mine si de mine cum sunt. transilvania e cea mai civilizata zona a romaniei, restul tarii ne trage in jos! daca ai avut ghinionu sa te nasti in alta zona decat transilvania treaba ta, dar nu te baga peste ardeleni, ca ardelenii stiu mai bine ce vor!
