Katy Perry—“I’ll Be Home for Christmas” and “Cozy Little Christmas”

Well, there's one Nightmare song! Surprised they didn't get Josh Gad to sing a song from Olaf's Frozen Adventure.

So-so lineup. I would say I'm most looking forward to P!NK, Katy Perry and Andrea Bocelli.

Happy they squeezed in a Nightmare song, and if it wasn't for that song and Snowman and Whistle I would have had no idea this was a Disney related special based on all those songs. And performers.

And a Frozen song too!...Whodathunk?
Gee, whoever said this would just be generic Christmas songs, because there "weren't any" classic Disney holiday tunes?

(And as Bill asks, why are they doing a holiday singalong where they can't promote their own product?
Well, because....they...STILL can't figure out what else to put on the free networks during the Pandemic.) :lol:

No attempt to do "Rufus Xavier Sarsaparilla" live?

A bluesy delivery of "Mean Ol' Number Nine"?

And, ahem..."The Preamble"?? :x

Mean ol' number nine are part of the lyrics for "Naughty Number Nine". One of my faves. That's how I learned to do 9s!

Most of the Multiplication songs also taught some concept of math:
"I Got Six" demonstrates math word-problems, "Little Twelvetoes" explains the Base-10 number system, "Zero, My Hero" goes into hundreds and thousands, and "Naughty Number Nine" shows different ways to check your work.

...And then, all most Boomers can remember is "I'm Just a Bill", so they can joke about their own lives with it. :roll:
