In every holiday season, there is a debate that springs eternal: what is the best Christmas song? For a long time, that title has been held by Mariah Carey’s delightful “All I Want for Christmas Is You.” But even though I will always stan the Queen of Christmas’s iconic number, it’s time to pay tribute to what is lowkey the most banging Christmas tribute of all time. I am talking, of course, about José Feliciano’s 1970 classic “Feliz Navidad.”
In celebrating the 50th anniversary of the song, Feliciano sat down with Amazon Music to discuss the legacy of the bilingual hit. Feliciano, who was born in Lares, Puerto Rico, emigrated to New York in 1950 at five years old. Blind since birth, Feliciano quickly discovered a passion and a talent for music. In 1970, he released an album of Christmas standards which included his new song, “Feliz Navidad.” The song has remained a beloved holiday staple eve
Since 2020 certainly has made its mark – or smudge – on us all, are not just not feeling that bubbly and merry Christmas state of mind?
Between the COVID-19 pandemic, quarantining, not being able to hug, and safely social distancing, a lot of good folks are finding it difficult to get into the holiday feeling. Bah humbug! Even before you read this to its finale, you ll be singing, All I Want for Christmas Is You. Speaking of tunes, put on some of your favorite Christmas music!
Do you like hot chocolate? Trust me on this one. You re going to make a mind-blowing recipe that will be a huge hit and maybe a new holiday tradition. Everything from the ingredients to the instructions is easy-peasy.
A group of 115 nurses, doctors and other health professionals who have been working on the frontline amid the dangers of the COVID-19 pandemic, have got together to raise funds for the support of the mental health of staff working in ICUs.
The choir practised via regular Zoom calls, thus following distancing protocols.
Calling themselves the ICU Liberty Singers, they are vying for number one spot in the British charts with another NHS choir, Lewisham and Greenwich NHS Choir who are trying their luck in wresting away the coveted spot with their remix of Justin Bieber’s
Holy.
The origins of the ICU Liberty Singers lie in their efforts to get away from the strain from the caring of huge amounts of COVID-19 patients; they gelled into a singing outfit and decided to release a single.
