This one is was a surprise to me when I first came across it...

Riu Chiu

I like it.  Of course, I was always a Monkees fan.

The Little Drummer Boy
The Canadian Brass
anything upbeat
anything old school- meaning that it uses real instruments and singers who sound like they're human, and doesn't get too funky with the melody
anything i haven't heard a million times before

This piece/video has been a spirit-raiser for me this Advent.

Oh, excellent! 

I hate to admit it, but I love musical flash mobs.

Status: offline 		I especially enjoy choral music at the holidays.  There are 2 that
I really enjoy; the first needs no introduction or explanation.
The Morman Tabernacle Choir.  One of the worlds great choirs.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S4BWhvIlFVE

This year I have also been enjoying Trevor Pinnock.and the English
Chamber Orchestra.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MqILJPv1JIY&feature=related

Pinnock is a harpsichord player and one of the best known advocates for
playing classical music on classical instruments.  His rendition of the
Messiah has received a lot of praise because the diction is so clear and
the words so easy to understand.  I have the whole piece and I also made
a CD of just the chorus selections which I really enjoy.
