      Goering, he had two but very small,

      Conversely, in the UK, the carol Good King Wenceslas is often sung at Christmas.

    Just beautiful. So many of these old songs are part of the American heritage of today. We sing many of them at church even today. It's remarkable . So many of the Christian songs are from Britain from the tent revivalists, even with the old Wigglesworth and the like, making their way through Britain. I hear the Queen's Music there in this collection as well! It's so comforting to hear them. And now to know their origin, makes me love them more. Wherever they may have originated they are made new. Its funny how they never get old and how we never tire of hearing them. Thank you.

      His mother, the dirty bugger,
      Cut it off, when hitler, was small.
      She through it, over west Germany,
      It landed, in the deep blue sea,
      The fishes, got out their dishes,
      And they had scallops, and bollocks, for tea.

      I too❤️- have loved the melody of that song since I was a wee girl and could melt into it so easily.
      I was born in England though I am American- my Dad was stationed there in the military.
      I recognize Rule Britannia- Dad has talked about how he would go to an event and love watching how all the Britts would stand and sing that with all they were worth and he was the type to heartily join in.
      Our ancestry is very British on both sides of my family and we have very much an appreciation for the British and their music. There were several tunes I recognized but could not name but I can definitely hear the Britishness of the tunes☺️
      I would be appalled though at the American who could not recognize Amazing Grace and Joy to the World by name, and I would hope that many would know the name of Auld Lang Syne even if they’d struggle to actually sing the whole song.
      Bravo on an excellent selection of music!

    Regarding number 8, the British Library writes of Handel: "Though his social circles in London were mainly English-speaking, and most of his music sets English or Italian words, Handel remained German in his core. He would write private notes to himself in German on his manuscripts and, perhaps through frustration at his English acquaintances demonstrating their ignorance of the umlaut and mispronouncing him ‘Mr Handel’, he often signed his name ‘Hendel’."

    I use "Joy to the World" to teach people the importance of rhythm in music. On a piano (or any instrument) first play a descending major scale with the notes evenly spaced. Then play the exact same descending scale using the "Joy to the World" rhythm. It tends to amaze people how different the same notes then sound.
