Caroling

So a friend invited a bunch of families over for caroling.  We practiced a bunch yesterday and we'll be going caroling in open air on Wed night.

I found it a bit uncomfortable because I knew different songs than the rest of the group.  We all sang most of the Religious carols in the Hymnal.  But when we got to the secular carols, I found that everyone wanted to sing the kids songs.  No one seemed to know the silver age cinematic carols.  And those are my favorites.

The Christmas Song
It's Beginning To Look a Lot Like Christmas
Silver Bells
Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas
Little Drummer Boy
Do You Hear What I Hear?

They'd heard of them.  But no one knew the lyrics.  A lot of them didn't know the whole tunes.  Am I really that old?

I’m in my 30’s and not only do I know each of those, they played on my computer TODAY.
