Songs for the Thanksgiving Season (Thanksgiving Day)

Today is Thanksgiving and as we enjoy being with and eating with family & friends, it is inevitable that we start looking forward to Christmas. That being said, here are two final songs for the Thanksgiving season, both of which give thanks for Christmas.

First up is The Lawrence Welk Orchestra with "Thanks For Christmas."







Finally, an oft-overlooked song by The Bee Gees called "Thank You For Christmas."





Starting tomorrow and probably through the end of the year (since once I get into Christmas music it is very hard for me to get out of it) I will post some of my favorite Christmas & seasonal recordings.

Songs for the Thanksgiving Season 2

So I sidetracked a bit and didn't get to my daily postings of 'thankful' songs. So here are a few a couple days before Thanksgiving.

First up we have John Denver thanking God he's a country boy (which I don't think he really was. Mountain man maybe. Oh well, it's all just semantics).





And next we have Neil Diamond being thankful for the night.

Songs for the Thanksgiving Season 1

So as soon as the Halloween season has passed us, it's time to start thinking about the Thanksgiving season. Let's start that today for we should be thankful more than just one day out of the year. I'll post some 'thanksgiving' songs that aren't necessarily about the holiday but rather just being grateful for one reason or another.

We'll start off with this great classic from Sam & Dave called "I Thank You." Their studio recording is great in itself but I found this live performance which is equally great and fun to watch. I'll thank you for watching it.
