Christmas movie soundtracks

[jamtoast12]

Hello!

I started another thread asking for Christmas CDs for girls but not having much luck! Can anyone recommend any decent Xmas movie soundtracks that all the family would enjoy ESP dds aged 8&6?

I'm thinking CDs with mainly songs, not too much instrumental!

I've heard the muppets christmas carol is good (polar express too?) but don't know anyone who has it?

Any help, would be great as the elves bring it on 1st dec and I do like to be organised :)

Thanks.

Walking in the Air (of course)

And if you want a really cheesy Christmas Sountrack, the "Barney" Christmas films have lots of USA Christmassy songs.

^Jolly Old Saint Nicholas,bend your ear this way,
Don't you tell a single soul what I'm going to say,
Christmas Eve is drawing near, so you dear old man,
Whisper what you'll bring to me, tell me if you can^

And there's
^Up on the rooftops reindeers pause,
Out jumps good old Santa Claus^

You can tell I was force to endure many happy Barney hours .

Bum.
Italics fail.

We have a wiggles Christmas CD and Raffi Christmas CD which have well known tunes and are easy to sing along to.

With Muppets the songs are really good but I don't know if they'll make sense without knowing the film? Having said that my daughter who is 2 loves 'marley and marley'. Polar Express has some nice songs, probably more of a calming one than Wiggles/ Barney etc.

Thanks! I managed to get copies of home alone and polar express which are very good (had a quick listen during my ironing!). I'm waiting on muppets but I have seen it so expect it'll be good. Home alones is great, despite half instrumental.
