Christmas Songs Soap Star-Style

Beyond the Gates has entered the picture this year. David Lami Friebe (Izaiah) goes musical in two different posts that feature him and his castmates.

“You Make It Christmas” by Karla Mosley, Sean Freeman, and David Lami Friebe

One of the things we have learned this year is that the BTG cast is talented, full of triple threats, and beyond. For example, below is a David Lami Friebe (Izaiah) and Karla Mosley (Dani) original Christmas tune. And they perform it beautifully along with Sean Freeman (Andre).

“This Christmas” by Friebe, Najah Jackson, and Jasmine Burke

Friebe is back and singing this time. He performs Donny Hathaway’s “This Christmas” along with BTG’s Najah Jackson (Samantha) and Jasmine Burke (June). The acoustics must be fantastic in this stairwell.

“I’ll Be Home for Christmas” by Carson Boatman

Carson Boatman, Day Player and self-proclaimed “music dabbler” from Days of Our Lives, is here to entertain the holiday faithful with his rendition of “I’ll Be Home for Christmas.” He actually dropped two Christmas tunes on fans. He also performs “White Christmas.”“Baby, It’s Cold Outside” by Eric Martsolf & Jen Lilley

Long before she starred in Christmas rom-coms and he was one of the Day Players, Jen Lilley (formerly Theresa) and Eric Martsolf (Brady Black) from DAYS lent their musical talents to this 2014 Thrady duet.

“Let It Snow” by Steve Burton, Bradford Anderson, James Patrick Stuart, & Marcus Coloma

Steve Burton (Jason) and Bradford Anderson (Spinelli) are known for gathering their General Hospital co-stars for musical performances, and in 2020, they recruited James Patrick Stuart (Valentin) and Marcus Coloma (formerly Nikolas) for a socially-distanced rendition of “Let It Snow.”

“Joy To The World” by Cait Fairbanks

The same year Cait Fairbanks (Tessa) brought her beautiful voice to Genoa City on The Young and the Restless, she also released her own music, including her take on the Christmas classic “Joy to the World.”

“The Christmas Song” by Gloria Loring

Let’s go back to 1983 in Salem, when Gloria Loring (DAYS’ Liz) performed “The Christmas Song,” joined by Bo (Peter Reckell), Hope (Kristian Alfonso), and Tom (the late Macdonald Carey).

“Christmas With You” by Rick Springfield

Before he was known as rockstar Rick Springfield, the singer was loved by many as Dr. Noah Drake on GH. “Christmas With You” is one of Springfield’s many songs from his holiday album of the same name.
