[RachelS]

HAHAAAA. GIRL, me and you are of the same pod. I am the Xmas Moose MAMA! I love me some moooses. Hence the HELLO screen name MoosePatrol. ROFL!!!

[RachelS]

do you know the song????? i think i found a place i can buy it! i am so excited!

[KimberlyGiarrusso]

I remember it veryyyy vaguely about wanting to pull the sleigh.

I found a site too, some place with eliose in name? Anyways it wasn't the right song, I was going to send it to you but I didn't want you to buy the wrong one.

Yes Yes yes I know it too, two years ago I did all sorts of internet searches for it. ithink I found out that it was sung by the caroleers or something like that. I LOVE LOVE LOVE that song. Whenever I start to sing it Dh gets this "what theheck !" look on his face. I seriously grew up thinking it was a normal christmas song. I am hoping to find it tucked away at my parents house sometime--as I had no luck buying it. let me know what you find.

I'm morris the moose!
morris the moose, that's me!
I'm big and tall and I can run
Faster than lightning and everyone
. . .

who me?? morris the moose.


sigh! love that!

[RachelS]

AMBER!!!!! THAT'S IT! I have never met anyone outside of my immediate family who knew that song!!!!

[DeeZee]

Is this related to the books about Morris and Boris??? I don't know the song but that's what immediately came to mind!

[AmberC]

nope not related to the books (At least I don't think so).

Rachel, did it also have the song about 1000 santa clauses

I totally LOVe that record. Christmas just doesn't seem the same to me with out it. LOL!!

Rachel, there's a posting on www.themusiclocator.com (http://www.themusiclocator.com) that they have a contact for this album. Check out this link about halfway down the page (under a yellow info spacer): http://www.angelfire.com/biz/musicsale/wishlist12.html It says to contact them for info...

[sinead]

dude...here's a guy who says he has the whole album and will make a cd copy and mail it to you for $15. Could be a scam, I guess, but wouldn't it be worth $15 to find out? :regular_s

Watch out for copyright infringments ladies. He could get busted and you would be out your money. Hope you have luck in finding it.

From my reading this morning, Chris, it looks like the original recordings are old enough that they are free of music copyright rules (there's a 30 year window, I think) and some of the people who were posting about it had done enough research to find out that no one held the copyright on these songs...

[RachelS]

I FOUND IT! It came today on CD!!!! YAY!!!!!!!

[StaceyD]

YAY!!! Enjoy sharing your song with your family!!

[AmberC]

Rachel don't hold out on me. :) pm me all the juicy details if you want to. I am willing to PAY for these. :)
