I was putting this medley together when it dawned on me that very few people are going to be listening on Christmas Eve. Heck, I may be talking to myself by now!
I have come up with something a little different for tomorrow because Day 12 falls on Christmas Eve and that day deserves something special.
But enough of that for now. Today’s medley is, I hope, filled with music that brings home the real spirit of Christmas for each and every one of you!

Thank you, Lee & Ted ❤️❤️
I’m glad the music was enjoyable. I hope the weather is calm with so many people planning on traveling.
As always, Very classy and fitting. Merry Christmas Ray
Thank you, Tim.
Merry Christmas, my friend ❤️
From Nat King Cole, all the way down through to Johnny Mathis, absolutely the most wonderful and memorable Christmas songs that I recall as a child. Some of those songs have been around for hundreds of years seems like not that I’m not old or anything! L O L, I loved hearing, Bing Crosby, and Frank Sinatra. Of course, Andy Williams, as they all sang traditional songs I also love the Trans-Siberian Orchestra I think they are absolutely fabulous, and I actually turned up the volume until it was almost obscene. Would love to see a live performance. This was the best, as your usual. I want to take this opportunity to wish you and your family a very merry Christmas and an exceptionally Abundant new year! Thank you Ray as always! You’re the best! ⛄️❄️🎄🌲🎵🥰
Sandy, thank you so much for your very generous words. ❤️ This may only be Day 11 but tomorrow is completely different so today’s medley is the final day with music. I hope it has been an enjoyable time for everyone, and I hope as we went through the days and became more spiritual along the way, I hope the Spirit of Christmas touched everyone’s hearts and souls.
You are such a dear girl, Sandy, and I thank you for all the many kindnesses you have shown me.
With much love … Merry Christmas! ❤️
What a terrific mix of Christmas greats! Memories abounded and comfort and joy set in while I was listening. Johnny Cash’s one-of-a-kind voices telling the story of Christ, then following up with one of the Trans Siberian Orchestra’s best songs had me completely overwhelmed. I thought to myself, how in the world can that be followed up…then you ended with a man with such a beautiful and heart-warming voice, Johnny Mathis, singing “Ave Maria”.
Bravo, Ray! I could pick different Christmas music all day long, but nothing would work on me as well as what you choose, as well as the order in which you put it in.
Thank you Ray.
Killian and I wish you, Jane and your family a Very Merry Christmas and I want you to know that you and the work you put into these medleys make my world just that much happier. ❤️✌️😊🎶🙏❤️
Jim and Killian, I am so glad the music worked its magic on you! ❤️ You both have impacted my life in ways you can’t begin to imagine. You make my world a lot happier! I love you both and I wish you and your families a very Blessed and Merry Christmas! ❤️❤️
Ho Ho Ho, another great meadley to help put us into the Xmas spirit. Thanks and have a great day my friend!
Thank you, Nancy ❤️ As always, I am very pleased to know you enjoyed the music! Merry Christmas! ❤️
Good 🌄 morning Ray. What a great old traditional selection of Christmas favorites…well done my friend. My wife even sat down with me before heading off to work and totally enjoyed this mornings selections! The voices of Frank, Bing, Andy, and the two Johnnys were absolutely pleasant to so relaxing 😌 to listen to…you out did yourself this morning my friend! Thank Ray and do enjoy the rest of your day.
Thank you, Bruce. I so appreciate your very kind words. It has been my pleasure to bring these medleys to you. They had, I hope, the desired effect. I want to wish you and your wife a very Merry Christmas and I extend my best wishes for a healthy and Happy New Year! ❤️
This was wonderful, Ray. The perfect ending to the Christmas music medleys. I don’t know what you have planned for tomorrow but might not listen until Christmas night, so, want to wish you and your family a wonderful Christmas.
Thank you, Pat ❤️
I am always so grateful for your support and this year has been no different.
Tomorrow is going to be a pair of 45-minute old-time radio plays (“It’s A Wonderful Life” with most of the cast from the movie and “A Christmas Carol“). With Christmas Eve the prevailing theme on both, and because I know listeners will have plenty of other tings to do, I thought it was a good way to end the 12 Days.
My best wishes for a very Blessed and Merry Christmas! ❤️
