Topic: Upbeat Christmas songs?

We are playing for a Christmas Party and need some upbeat type Christmas songs. I'm looking for chords for "Run, Run Rudolph" or the Springsteen version of "Santa Claus is Coming to Town" Any other ideas would also be helpful.
Thanks

Try "Angel Interceptor" and "There's a Star" by Ash.

"Hey Santa" by Carnie and Wendy Wilson ~1994 is upbeat.  I can't seem to find it online though.

Re: Upbeat Christmas songs?

i dont recall seeing santa mentioned anywhere at christ crucifiction come to think i dont think the easter bunny was included in the dead sea doucuments and there wasent any upbeat jiveass cymbal players, santa is a retailers messiah remember the reason for the season.

Re: Upbeat Christmas songs?

Russell, I am Christian, and what you write is correct EVEN MORE, who threw the "merchants" out of the temple? Also, about the Koran, interpreted different, like about women. The thing I WILL NEVER understand is how a war can start, because my God is better than yours (example) For me God is everywhere. People BELIEVE since mankind in thunder, lightning, so this people should be excluded? It is a fact that everything now turns around gifts, SONGS and the essential is neglected.

What is the best upbeat? Maybe SLADE? Merry Christmas Everybody. Or Elvis.
Elvis Presley       Blue Christmas / Love Me Tender
Elvis Presley     Merry Christmas Baby / Santa Claus Is Back In Town

Re: Upbeat Christmas songs?

gitaardocphil  i am a christian under construction. i have long had these feelings about the comercialization of the birth of jesus christ,what you say about wars started because one god was better or the only one this is the reason and the justification for the actions that people give when they commit atrocities against the human race in the name of their god.i dont recall any scripture that tells us to slit your neighbors throat or blow yourself up in a crowded resturant taking innocent people with you and you will be rewarded by your god.its 8:am i need to get some breakfast this is strong dialog for this early in the day.russell
