| 11. Wow, you nailed all of mine. Just add Feliz Navidad. Most repetitive Christmas song EVER! |

| 3. I actually like it a lot better than "We Are the World" |

It has more of a tune.
But the pedant in me always wants to say, "Well, the Ethiopian Orthodox kids probably DO know it's Christmas, but the Muslim and Animist ones don't give a shit."
