After a long hiatus from my favorite meme I’m jumping back in with a tune fit for the season. My artist for the day hailed from my home town of St. Louis and my current home of Chicago but our geographical paths flowed opposite each other. Mr. Donny Hathaway was born in Chi-Town but grew up in the Gateway City during his formative years.
My pick is one of his most favored tunes, a song that many of us really love to hear this time of year. We know the holiday season has formally kicked in when we start hearing “This Christmas” on the radio. Hope you enjoy this all time Donny Hathaway Classic.
Check out what these bloggers chose as their song of the day then sign up to join in on the weekly meme yourself. I’m going to check out some more tunes. Happy OSF!
Excellent choice! I love Donny…and you are right: Christmas doesn’t start until “This Christmas” is played!
Happy OSF!
Funny how one song can be the harbinger of Christmas – I have to hear White Christmas or it’s still Thanksgiving to me, lol.
Thanks for stopping by my OSF on Sinatra’s Holiday Songs and welcome back to OSF!
Donny, Donny, Donny…
Man you couldn’t have nailed it any better than this..
I just LOVE, LOVE, LOVE Donny Hathaway and his “This Christmas” will ALWAYS & FOREVER be the BEST version around!!
Awesome pick!
Excellent choice. I don’t think that we appreciated Donny Hathaway’s talents when he was with us.
Anyhow, your post also makes me realize that I haven’t actively been listening to Christmas tunes yet. I guess I’m not fully into the holiday season yet…

Thanks Keith. You schooled me on Hiram Bullock and Eddie Hazel. And Hendrix is always a guaranteed good choice. Thought it was funakteeriolific enough to share with my FB fam.
Thanks again.
Thanks Villager. Enjoyed your interview with Morgan Freeman.
