Nice medley.
And whilst we're here:
A Merry Christmas to all DGF members.
BTW Santhosh, it's "Noël", not "Noel" as in your youtube vid, Noel has no meaning, just saying. |

| Dosraider: Noel is an English word as well, Santhosh spelled it correctly in English. (since he was playing the English Christmas song, "The First Noel") Of course it's taken from the french Noël, but English has a long history of stealing and butchering French words. It's also spelled "Nowell", and there's a theory it actually comes from the Gaelic/Gaulish "Nou Helle" ("New Light") and not the Latin "nael" at all. (Nou Helle being the Solstice, which is tomorrow, actually) |

The fact that you English are too lazy to put a ¨ on the e doesn't makes it correct spelling.
UR lazy.
.... and WIKI says Noël is also correct, even if the grammar checker in FF underlines it in red.
No culture, that's what wrong with you peeps, no culture at all.
Given 10-20years and the only written English that remain will be SMS style.
Or should I say 'Americanish'?  |

English are lazy? The French don't even pronounce half of any given word! You probably just have the ¨ there to encourage you to keep going and say the second syllable.
