Lyrics
I want a hippopotamus for Christmas
Only a hippopotamus will do
Don't want a doll, no dinky Tinker Toy
I want a hippopotamus to play with and enjoy
I want a hippopotamus for Christmas
I don't think Santa Claus will mind, do you?
He won't have to use our dirty chimney flue
Just bring him through the front door,that's the easy thing to do
I can see me now on Christmas morning,creeping down the stairs
Oh what joy and what surprise
when I open up my eyes
to see a hippo hero standing there
I want a hippopotamus for Christmas
Only a hippopotamus will do
No crocodiles,
no rhinoceroses
I only like
hippopotamuses
And hippopotamuses like me too
Mom says the hippo would eat me up, but then
Teacher says a hippo is a vegeterian.
(Short Music Interlude)
There's lots of room for him in our two-car garage
I'd feed him there and wash him there and give him his massage
I can see me now on Christmas morning,creeping down the stairs
Oh what joy and what surprisewhen I open up my eyesto see a hippo hero standing there
I want a hippopotamus for Christmas
Only a hippopotamus will do
No crocodiles
or rhinoceroseses
I only like hippopotamuseses
And hippopotamuses like me too!
Hehehe ♥ U
This is pretty much the only Christmas song I have ever really liked. All the other mainstream ones, I just find irritating. (I do not even celebrate the holiday. Or any holiday, for that matter. [Shrugs] Well, except Pi Day).

Every Year Australian's yearn to hear this man render the anthem "The Holy City" at Carols by Candlelight. Here's why;
It's a dream

Lyrics
The Holy City Hymn
*Last night I lay a-sleeping
There came a dream so fair,
I stood in old Jerusalem
Beside the temple there.
I heard the children singing,
And ever as they sang,
Me thought the voice of angels
From heaven in answer rang.
Jerusalem! Jerusalem!
Lift up your gates and sing,
Hosanna in the highest!
Hosanna to your King!
And then me thought my dream was changed,
The streets no longer rang,
Hushed were the glad Hosannas
The little children sang.
The sun grew dark with mystery,
The morn was cold and chill,
As the shadow of a cross arose
Upon a lonely hill.
Jerusalem! Jerusalem!
Hark! How the angels sing,
Hosanna in the highest!
Hosanna to your King!
And once again the scene was changed;
New earth there seemed to be;
I saw the Holy City
Beside the tideless sea;
The light of God was on its streets,
The gates were open wide,
And all who would might enter,
And no one was denied.
No need of moon or stars by night,
Or sun to shine by day;
It was the new Jerusalem
That would not pass away.
Jerusalem! Jerusalem!
Sing for the night is o'er!
Hosanna in the highest!
Hosanna for evermore!
Oh and Darkmatters
I truly ♥ your Porky Pig
Here it is again:

Last night (Christmas eve) in Carols by Candlelight. Hobson sang with an 11 year old that he'd played all year with in "Chitty Bang Bang.
Then Hobson did what we all wanted to hear. ... Screeeam (!!!)

Dear Tropicalbreeze (male, 30 living in the USA)
I guess you noticed this mind blowing synchronicity.
First you posted your favorite Christmas Carol in post #9 of this thread (Opened by Xei).
Then on Christmas Eve at the end of Australia's Carols by Candlelight, that eleven year old boy sang your favorite Christmas Carol. Look at post #11 of this thread.
That is not the end of the mind blowing synchronicity.
I only came online, due to an amazing mutual dream in 1-March-2008. That full experience is recorded in my thread called "Debrajane's Story". In the last part of that dream, this happened:
***
In the dream...
I asked some one beside me
“do you see what I see?”
Then I said “maybe I am drunk from the wine or overtired (and hallucinating) because maybe I didn't get much sleep last night, but I can see life-size bronze statues walking around among the real people on the street.” They had that distinctive brown-green metallic sheen that all bronze statues have.

I think it means that 2014 is going to be a big year for synchronicity.
Thank you for opening this tread Xei.
