Top Christmas songs, according to yahoo...

This is an article we pulled from Yahoo when we asked it the Top Christmas that are in the world... the answer may surprise you.  Haha!  We also love this picture on the left.  It is so sad to watch little kids find out about Santa Claus.   It is even more appalling to remember when we ourselves found out that Old Saint Nick is not real.  With that said, let's just look at the list and not talk about it anymore.  Deal?
