Best of the Grammar Diva…

Many, many songs have been written about the holidays. And obviously many of them have the word Christmas in the title. A few even have Chanukah in the title.  Kwanzaa? Maybe.  Here is a list of just a few of those songs. Do you know who sang these songs — and in some cases made them hits? Of course, there are some songs recorded by more than one person, so you might have an answer that I don’t have.  Some of these will be easy. Others not so much. Try your hand at this….
