Question ID: 572643
In the movie, "You've Got Mail", starring Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan,
there is a Christmas song which I want to find out the name of and
where to find the lyrics, the music for it and if possible a
recording.  The song was sung by Meg Ryan, her boyfriend in the movie
the characters' friends and Jean Stapleton who was playing the piano. 
Can you help me with this?

Hello.

The song is called "The Orchestra Song" or "The Instrument Song."

From filmtracks.com:

'"Found Song title to Christmas Carol!
...

> me nuts!
...
It's either called "The Instrument Song" or "The Orchestra"'
