# 21. Carol of the Bells...?

Nope.

Chey, #24 is still unguessed too (I think.)

BTW, these are NOT all "Carols" they are "Christmas tunes" Which is the error that kept me from getting #5 when I got this in my e-mail.
 
I haven't read the rest yet.. I'm trying to do this on my own.. so I'm sure someone has already answered them.. but i'm having fun anyway *L*

#18: "I saw Three ships on Christmas day" is the title in the answer key, which is why I gave it half credit. The CD probably doesn't have room for the full title. :p

#21. "The Bells of Christmas Are Ringing" not "Carol of the Bells."

Here's the full list:

Translations:
1. Oh, Holy Night
2. Jingle Bell Rock
3. Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer
4. All I Want for Christmas is my Two Front Teeth
5. Nutcracker Suite
6. The Little Drummer Boy
7. Silent Night (Knight= Sir Lancelot)
8. Deck the Halls
9. Silver Bells
10. O Little Town of Bethlehem
11. Away in a Manger
12. We Three Kings
13. 12 Days of Christmas
14. Go Tell It On the Mountain
15. We Wish You A Merry Christmas
16. Hark the Herald Angels Sing
17. As Shepherds Watched Their Flocks By Night
18. I Saw 3 Ships on Christmas Day
19. Joy to the World

*singing*

I Saw Three Ships

I saw three ships come sailing in
On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day
I saw three ships come sailing in
On Christmas Day in the morning.

And what was in those ships all three
On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day?
And what was in those ships all three
On Christmas Day in the morning.

The virgin Mary and Christ were there
On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day
The virgin Mary and Christ were there
On Christmas Day in the morning.
