Christmas dancing songs

[MadamSamba]

Hey folks, just thinking about our big Chrissy ball and was wondering what songs they might play. So, here's a question, if you were holding a Christmas ball, what suggestions do you have for music to the usual 10 dances as well as swing and salsa?

Don't Save it All for Christmas Day -- Celine Dion (Waltz)


From "Now That's What I Call Christmas" 2-CD set.

Love on Layaway Gloria Estefan (Samba) Same CD

[Sagitta]

Not sure if this should be started in another thread, but...

Along those lines -- x'mas songs that those who don't really dance would feel like moving to. Or x/mas songs that one has to dance to if they come on. I'm considering ways to convert the whole familial gathering at x/mas. I figure that if I can make a mix with enough "chrissy" dance songs slippped in here and there I will be making a step in the right direction. :)

Mariah Carey has a Christmas CD I heard the other day with a couple nice ECS tunes on it.

John Lennon's "So This Is Christmas" would work for Viennese Waltz.

"Last Christmas" by George Michael. It's a little lengthy, but should be ok for Hustle or Cha-Cha.

"Hard Candy Christmas" by Dolly Parton for Rumba.

The band we go to see on Tuesday nights has been playing lots of christmas music with a swing beat. It's kind of neat swing dancing to christmas songs. They've played Winter Wonderland, Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer for swing and they played White Christmas for a good shmoozer. :D
