Holiday Music

BreakABone · 12-02-2009, 02:15 AM

I love the holidays, and most people do. Part of the holidays is all the awesome music that I get sick of by Dec 26th, but seeing how only Dec 2nd, we have a few weeks before they are played to death. So what are some of your favorite tunes?

To get the ball rolling.

I hate holiday music. In Holland they celebrate 'Sinterklaas', which is the guy that Coca Cola based Santa Claus on. The holiday is accompanied by terribly annoying children songs. It's infuriating.

They also celebrate Christmas, I also don't like those songs. Blech.

I'm going to jump the... ghost? whatever that phrase is... and post my favorite version of Auld Lang Syne, sung by the Scottish Mairi Campbell:

Good versions of that song (such as this) is one of the few songs that can bring a tear to my eye.

Crosby and Bowie

The meeting of a really old style stern man, and a crazy glam rocker all to sing Christmas carols!

All I want for Christmas by Mariah Carrey is my favorite christmas song. I frequently play it in Jukebox's at bars around Christams. ( And sometimes not around Christmas if im in the right mood to have people yell at me. ) I'll post another link because BAB's was removed.

The 2003 edition of Sounds of the Season actually continues to be one of my favorites. As much as it pains me to say it, Kylie Minogue's version of "Santa Baby" is actually my favorite.

Huh? If you're offended that I put up a link to where you could buy the album on Amazon you missed the point, Angrist. I was just trying to make it easy for people to preview all the songs on the album. But I'll edit it just for you!

Ok, I was going to post a video of Jimmy Eat World's Last Christmas cover, but I couldn't find it. Listen to it, for me
