Song 67 manages to combine everything that I spend most of my time thinking about this time of year, those things being Christmas, and cool music, and also spaceships and aliens. Song 67 is Carol of The Bells by Mannheim Steamroller, and it has the distinction of being the only Christmas carol which I can say is both beautiful and the song the mothership from Close Encounters of the Third Kind would have played over its loudspeakers if that movie were a Christmas special.
And shouldn't there have been a Close Encounters of the Third Kind Christmas movie, in which the aliens learned from Richard Dreyfuss about the legend of Santa Claus, and then learned that Santa doesn't exist, so they come back to Earth and use their technology to actually bring a gift to every man, woman and child on Earth, in order to promote peace and brotherhood? It could have Richard Dreyfuss in a Santa outfit standing on that white deck/walkway and waving. It could be called Close Encounters of a Christmas Kind.
Down... to go: It's a countdown of all the songs on my iPod. Be grateful; I could have simply listed breakfast cereals I like. Song 66 here.
