PUZZLE CORNER: DECEMBER 8, 2012

Welcome back everybody, as we continue our annual Christmas enigma tradition here at the Puzzle Corner.
Now, everybody has their favorite Christmas carols, and we can debate until the egg nog turns warm and the  Christmas cookies crumble as to who performed the best version of a specific tune.
Several are listed below, but do you know who WROTE your favorite Christmas carol?
(In the spirit of the season, if more than one person was involved, the number is listed after the song.)

01. The Christmas Song (2)
02. White Christmas
03. Silver Bells (2)
04. Jingle Bell Rock (2)
05. Feliz Navidad
06. Happy Xmas (War Is Over!) (2)
07. Wonderful Christmas Time
08. Here Comes Santa Claus (2)
09. I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus
10. Rudolph The Red Nosed Reindeer, Rockin' Round The Christmas Tree, AND A Holly Jolly Christmas (SAME PERSON wrote all three!)

We'll reveal all next weekend. But for now, let's open THE ANSWERS BOX and discover the results from the December 1st Puzzle Corner.
