If this goes to the Games forum, it'll be forgotten and since it's the Holiday Season, I thought it'd be great here.

What are the real names for these exaggerated titles of very familiar Christmas tunes? (And if you can get #s 8 or 25, it'd be much appreciated as I don't know them because 1-25 I got somewhere else and Kram and I made up 26-59 a couple years ago)

1. My sole desire for the Yuletide season is receipt of a pair of central incisors.
2. From dark 'til dawn, soundless and sanctimonious.
3. Celestial messengers from splendid empires.
4. The antlered quadruped with the flaming proboscis.
5. The event occurred at one minute after 11:59 p.m. with visibility unlimited.
6. Ornament the enclosure with large sprigs of a berry-bearing evergreen.
7. Personal hallucinations of an alabaster December 25th.
8. Anticipation of this Noel's momentous.
9. Clappered inverted cups, amalgamated.
10. Testimony of witness to maternal parent's infidelity with Kris Kringle.

11. In a distant bovine diner.
12. Universal elation.
13. O' miniature Nazarene village.
14. The approach of the holiday commemorating the birth of Christ is becoming evident.
15. May Jehovah grant unto males happy retirement.
16. Those of you who are true, come here!
17. Are you detecting the same aural sensations I am?
18. The diminutive male of less than adult age who plays a percussion instrument.
19. Primary Yuletide.
20. Heavenly cherubs announcing in song- listen!

21. Reigning monarchs of the Far East.
22. Who's the mystery sibling?
23. Proclaim it to the hills.
24. Pastoral woolies nocturnally observed in vigilance by herdsmen.
25. Village expectations of a Yuletide emissary.

26. Bosom-filberts broiling over an unclosed pyre
27. The continuance of Yuletide is now present.

29. My eyes gazed at a trio of steamers
30. A Dozen Post-Evenings of Christ's Birth

31. Yuletide season, where do you be?
32. Taking a stroll through an Arctic Exalted Ground

41. The Lord's son is natal
42. Shiny Grey Carillons
43. Significant other, Happy day of the birth of Jesus!
44. The male being made of partially frozen water particles called Chilly

46. A location there is none on the season of Christmas but my habitation
47. The "not for a diabetic" fruit's jig
48. Place of Children's playthings
49. The stormous forest dweller plowed over my female elder
50. Shuffling forth circularly among a fir of Yuletide


51. The Hills Animate with the euphonious symphonies of descant (this is not a Christmas song, I got it from Moulin Rouge and it just is so fetch)
52. Do you have plans the night before the next twelve months?
53. Objects I prefer most
54. Pack an Ember, (Female Name Female Name).

:lol: These are hilarious!

I think #25 is Santa Claus Is Coming To Town, Escapay, though I'm not sure.

I guess each person solves the next one in order? Seems like fun. In that case, it looks like I'm first, so #1 is:

1. All I Want For Christmas Is My 2 Front Teeth

No. 30: "The 12 Days of Christmas"

I was tempted to put the title down as "The 12 Pains of Christmas" (a really funny parody by Bob Rivers), though.

3. Angels from the Realms of Glory ...

Silent Night was what I had in mind for number 2, but somehow it doesn't seem right to me. :santa:

I guess I'm not allowed to play since I wrote some of them. But this one has to be my favorite:

33. A Group of Us arrive singing holiday lyrics not over there

Nobody has gotten it yet! This one may be hard since it's from a movie (starring a blue+yellow scrooge like character created by a guy with a title you wouldn't often find for an author of children's books):

31. Yuletide season, where do you be?

:lol: And here's a new one to add to the list: (one of the silliest Christmas songs I ever heard)

60. Myself desires an Animal species of Fantasia with the Name of a Flower for the Christian Holiday Season

"I Want A Hippopotamus For Christmas"

I think that's the answer, I remember there were a lot of hippos in "Fantasia". And the "name of a flower" could be Tchaikovsky's "Dance of the Flowers" (from "The Nutcracker")

:D YAY!!!! YOU GOT IT LEONIA! :D The Fantasian animal with the name of a flower was Hyacinth Hippo, who was a hippopotamus, in the "Dance of the Hours" (lol, hours, flowers) segment with Ben Aligator and friends and the elephants with bubble tutus and the ostriches that ate the fruit.

Sis, you're silly :P .
