@dwalbert Dunno, but I'd rather listen to that than the dreck that was playing in the stores yesterday.

@dwalbert I poked around on the web and didn't find any instance in which the Pachelbel was being used as Christmas music. Lovely music though.

@Ron @cliffordbeshers It was in a seven hour plus playlist (at a craft market) with RUN DMC, Mannheim Steamroller, Paul McCartney and Michael Buble. They played “I Want a Hippopotamus for Christmas,” “Baby It’s Cold Outside,” and at least three versions of “It’s a Marshmallow World.” And Pachelbel. I dunno.

@dwalbert Our hardware store was playing a Sirius XM channel. I suspect they have mostly taken over from "Musak".

@dwalbert None of those are the Christmas songs I sang in the choir when I was a kid. But that was back in the 40's and 50's so I guess favorites change over time. 🎄 🎶
