I missed posting a question yesterday as reality got in the way so I'll post two today and give you the answers tomorrow. More musical questions (I'm taking these from a real Advent Calendar and whoever wrote the questions didn't mix them up much! Question 1: The song White Christmas was first performed in which 1942 movie? Question 2: In the song "The 12 Days of Christmas" 'My true love brought to me nine...' what? Good Luck!!!
Originally Posted By tashajilek Ok, for the song im thinking maids a milking or dancing ladies. I always get the song all mixed up my final answer is going to be 9 dancing ladies. With my luck i got it mixed up lol.
Originally Posted By davewasbaloo Lol, I went for lords a leaping (but I thought about maids a milking) As for white Christmas, I am going to go with Holiday Inn.
Originally Posted By mickeymeg ahhh I change my answer, after just singing the song with my 2 year old I think it is 9 ladies dancing
Originally Posted By FerretAfros I agree with Holiday Inn and Ladies Dancing. However, it seems that every version of 12 Days that I hear has 10, 11, and 12 as different things. Personally I perfer 12 drummers drumming, 11 lords a-leaping, and 10 pipers piping, but I've heard every combination.
Originally Posted By u k fan The answers were 9 ladies dancing and Holiday Inn. Well done to Tasha and Dave for getting one correct each first and props to PrincessJenn for getting them both right first go. You all get a virtual snack!!!
