Any Christmas "standards" written since the 60s?

Post by ggalen » Sat Nov 24, 2007 8:14 pm

Here in Minneapolis there is a radio station that plays nothing but Christmas standards from the day after Thanksgiving until Christmas.As my wife and I were listening to the station while we were driving around today, all the stuff they were playing was from the 40s through the 60s.What's the most recently written Christmas standard you can recall?I'm thinking Mel Torme song that begins "Chestnuts roasting on an open fire..."And that was in the 60s!Now maybe there are many new ones and I just haven't been listening. But I didn't hear them on the station tonight.
