"Twelve Days To Christmas, Twelve Days To Christmas, Plenty Of Time To Do Our Christmas Shopping!"
With just that exact number of days to go, I could not resist, girls! While "She Loves Me" is the most romantic musical ever written, (in the same class with, and some say surpassing, such gems as "My Fair Lady," "Carousel," "West Side Story," and "A Little Night Music!!!!!!!") it is technically not a Christmas show, though some of it does take place at Holiday time, and it does have the song "Twelve Days To Christmas" in it.
So, what better song to share with you, today, than this gem? I have one regret--I was not able to track down the Original Cast recording of it, which is the Gold Standard as far as this show goes. The best I could do is this excerpt from the revival in the Nineties, which I did see--twice, in fact! Once you enjoy this bauble, some of you unfamiliar with the show should go out, and track down the Original Cast recording and see why this is such a gem! Perfect for Valentine's Day, too!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
