Good idea 🤩

[Neonkittie17]

Waking through the air, Aled Jones

[Green230461 in reply to Neonkittie17]

Congratulations 👏

[Neonkittie17 in reply to Green230461]

Thank you. 🙏🏻

[Neonkittie17 in reply to Neonkittie17]

“Walking” not waking! Predictive text strikes again!

[snotts]

Ah this is a wonderful idea! I am totally stumped though

[Green230461 in reply to snotts]

Keep thinking 🤔

[Mmrr]

The air that I breathe by the Hollies.

[Neonkittie17 in reply to Mmrr]

Has to be a Christmas theme, I believe.

[Mmrr in reply to Neonkittie17]

The Hollies ?

[MadBunny in reply to Mmrr]

🤣🤣🤣 nice one!

[Neonkittie17 in reply to Mmrr]

Well done, that’s good thinking indeed and far ahead of mine! 😝 I think it has to be a Christmas song though and not the group? .. but I do like your thinking very much! (Maybe you’re right. I hope so.) 👏🏻😃

[Green230461 in reply to Mmrr]

A great tune🤩

[Green230461 in reply to Mmrr]

Clever answer there🤩

[MadBunny]

Something in the air by Thunderclap Newman 1969 came to mind but it's not a Christmas song. Can't think of any except Walking in the Air which Neonkittie said.

[Green230461 in reply to MadBunny]

Good idea though

[springcross]

My absolute favourite is I Believe in Father Christmas, Greg Lake.

[Green230461 in reply to springcross]

Great idea- miracle on 34th street

This song melts the snow for me. You probably know it. I adored Greg with ELP and his short stint with Asia (Budokan) Gone too soon.

[Neonkittie17 in reply to Neonkittie17]

Grr. The Author on YT doesn’t want it shared so it’s Greg Lake singing Footprints in the snow, live. Divine.

[springcross in reply to Neonkittie17]

It's a great song and video nonetheless Nk, thanks for sharing. x

[springcross in reply to Neonkittie17]

What was the song?

[Neonkittie17 in reply to springcross]

Footprints in the snow by Greg Lake. It won’t allow me to link it from YT. A gorgeous song link a dear friend sent me one Christmas.

[Green230461 in reply to nomoreheels]

A really beautiful song that makes you think of happier times

[springcross in reply to Neonkittie17]

Agreed, too young. x

[Green230461 in reply to Neonkittie17]

Beautiful tune but always makes me feel sad 😞

[Green230461]

I was thinking of Walking in the Air by Aled Jones sung on the cartoon The Snowman ⛄️ 1985Or Walking in the Air modern version, The Maccabees 2010

Well done to everyone who joined in. Day 2 tomorrow 😀

[Neonkittie17 in reply to Green230461]

I love Aled’s version.

[Green230461 in reply to Neonkittie17]

So did I this always says Christmas for me🎄

[Neonkittie17 in reply to Green230461]

I always watch The Snowman every December. Nightmare before Christmas too and endless others!

[springcross in reply to Neonkittie17]

Me too (meaning I love Aled's version).

[springcross in reply to Neonkittie17]

Well done Nk. x

[Neonkittie17 in reply to springcross]

Thank you. 💗
