The lyrics weren't very good but the music was great.

It is "Trioka" from Sergei Prokofiev's Lieutenant Kijé Suite.

VERY Russian.

Maybe it is age, but more of yearning for the Real Meaning of Christmas, and I feel the same way.

O’Reilly made the distinction that if it doesn’t mention Jesus, or the birth of Jesus, or reference to the Holy Night, then it is a Christmas song, and if it does then its a Christmas carol.

NoGrayZone,

You’ve mentioned that you would like to be able to share some music on a cd with friends..I do this quite often..of course, this is merely a suggestion..but following these steps, shareing music with friends is quite easy..

First, download “FreeRip” (http://www.freerip.com/) then install it on your computer..this free software will rip any cd to any format..read the FreeRip Manual first if you aren’t familiar with this type of software. (The Manual is located under the Help Tab)

Most people can play Mp3 files, so; perhaps you can rip the music from the cd into the Mp3 format (at least 192 Kbps, anything lower than 192 Kbps will not sound as good as it might.)...

Now, once you’ve completed the rip.. you’ll have a nice collection of mp3 files..these are digital files, they can easily be transfered to anyone..

Now.. I simply ZIP all of these mp3 files into ONE file..I use WinRar, this is shareware, so doesn’t cost anything to use it.(actually, if you are familiar with ZIPPING files, any Zip software will do) to ZIP the complete album into ONE Zipped file.. (here’s the WinRar website = http://www.win-rar.com/download.html) Read the “Help topics” to learn how to use it properly..it’s easy to learn.)

I have a DROPBOX account..the DROPBOX software was created to share any file with anyone..it’s FREE software, anyone can store up to two gigs of material on the Dropbox server.(https://www.dropbox.com/)

After the album is ZIPPED into one file, then move the ZIPPED file to the Public folder in your DROPBOX account.

After the file is in the Public Folder, then; right click on the file, a dropdown menu will appear, click DROPBOX in the menu, then click “Copy Public Link”..

Open an E-mail to anyone you wish to share this album with.. (you can even share the link on Facebook..or any Instant Messanger program..) then paste the link you’ve just copied from DROPBOX into the e-mail.. then send the e-mail..see? This is really easy to do!

Yes, I agree; this seems like a lot of steps to complete, to simply share some music.. but, once you’ve done this a few times..it won’t seem hard to do at all.

Merry Christmas ! :>)

Thank you so much for your information. To me it sounded like Charlie Browns teacher.

However, I will try it.

Thanks again! =)

No GrayZone, here’s some music to show you how DROPBOX works - this is a great instrumental Christmas album- Linda McKechnie at the piano, with The Don Marsh Orchestra, titled “A Hymnworks Christmas”..simply click the link to download the album =
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/16063967/A%20Hymnworks%20Christmas-Linda%20McKechnie%20and%20the%20Don%20Marsh%20Orchestra.mp3

Please note.. this is not a Zipped file, rather; I merged all the mp3 files together to make ONE mp3 file, with the GOLDWAVE software, to be able to enable my friends on Facebook to play the complete album... so, yes.. this download IS one complete album in ONE mp3 file.. I agree; it’s rather unusual to share an album this way..but it was necessary to be able to play it back on facebook.

I’m trying to download this but it’s giving me all kinds of stuff....like I have over 200 hundred things wrong with my computer, etc.

I probably would not deny that, but they want me to purchase their product in order to fix it. The last time I did that, I had to reboot my computer from day one to erase EVERYTHING.

Thank goodness I had an external hard drive that saved all my pics....however, I lost ALL my music.

I uninstalled it. I am NO tech person and someone with 1/2 a brain tech could probably do it for me.

But they wanted me to purchase something, which I hate, I don’t know what I am doing wrong, so I’d rather not do it.

But thanks for the advice!!!! =)
