One of our commercials uses that song as something that her boyfriend buys for her, meaning the two french hens, three turtle doves, and four calling hens, and a partridge in a pear tree to get the message across to buy Visa Cash Cards for the holidays, as to give people their own choice to buy things. But it is a rather odd bunch of animals that it suggests to give to your bethroded. Hum, a partridge in a pear tree?

Dislike it and all parodies of it. Fly in to homicidal rage when it starts.

Jeff Foxworthy's Twelve Redneck Days is about the best. The gifts include a 12-pack of Bud, 11 rasslin' tickets, a tin of Copenhagen, 9 years probation, 8 table dancers, 7 packs of Red Man, 6 cans of SPAM, 5 flannel shirts, 4 big mud tires, 3 shotgun shells, 2 hunting dogs, and some parts to a Mustang GT.

More fun the faster you try to sing it. :)

The problem I have with this song is never remembering how many ladies are drumming, lords are piping, maids are leaping, drummers are milking or pipers are dancing.

Twelve pipers piping; eleven drummers drumming; ten lords a-leaping; nine ladies dancing; eight maids a-milking; seven swans a-swimming; six geese a-laying; FIVE GOLDEN RINGS; four calling birds; three french hens; two turtle doves; and a partridge in a pear tree. Classic.

Update: Retailers - the song isn't 12 MONTHS of Christmas. Why are you pimping Christmas stuff during Labor Day weekend? Summer isn't over yet! Original review: Somewhat fun for kids, but singing all 12 verses of this Christmas carol is quite an exercise in repetition. Keeping all 12 items straight can be a challenge for both kids and adults (how many lords a-leaping?) and the verses make little sense (why would anyone give their true love eight maids a-milking?) I think something was lost in translation from the original version in French, which supposedly has religious metaphors. Regardless, it is hard to rate this holiday standard below a three, though many carols are far more enjoyable for sing-a-longs during the holiday season.

A decent Christmas carols, but I'm a much bigger fan of some of the hilarious variations of this song that have popped up.

You are all missing the real purpose of this song. It is the well from which Karaoke has sprung. This was the original laugh at friends and family while they try to sing something they really don't know song. Of course you can't remember how many lords leapt or maids milked, you are not suposed to. In reality it is a strategy game, and the strategy is to pick an early item so you are never confused, while those shy quiet people are stuck with the odd ones that no one can remember.

I probably liked this carol better when I was in grammar school. Now I get tired of it since it is so long. it is also very outdated. when i am listening to Christmas music I will usually skip this one. not to metion it is usually sung choir style or sing along with Mitch style.

Are we allowed to exchange this crap from the 12 days of Christmas? I mean I really don't want a partridge in a pear tree? I'll take the five gold rings but that's about it.

This one has always been one of my favorites. Upbeat, and with fast-tempo versions, its celebrating one of the best parts of Christmas: the presents!!! A modern version with video games, DVDs and toys would rock the house, though!

The song itself is OK, but I really love the spoof called "The 12 Pains of Christmas". It's pretty funny. It's my dad's favorite Christmas song.

A bit too lengthy, but the muppet one is good.

Kind of fun to listen to, but you don't hear it on the radio very often around the holidays. Kudos to anyone who can remember all the words.
