A couple that I put on my annual Christmas mix are Belle & Sebastian's "Are You Coming Over for Christmas?" and Yo La Tengo's "It's Christmas Time."  The Raveonettes' "Christmas Song" is a good one too. 

Where could I find the B&S and YLT songs? As in...what albums? Or links if that's allowed...

There is a new Christmas compilation from Stones Throw records called Badd Santa.  I haven't heard it yet, but it's new and it's Christmas.

Marah did a Christmas album that was rather ace.

I also love Glasvegas, and they just put one out too.

Well I think that's as many suggestions as I'm going to get. Thanks for recommendations guys! I'm in a much better position with this CD now!

Moi's "The Little Bummer Boy" is #2 today on the All Genres Chart at Sound Lift.

http://www.soundlift.com/band/music.php?song_id=82930

Last year, beginning on Dec. 31st, it hit #1 and stayed there for a little over three weeks.
 How well will it do this year?  No one knows and fewer care.

I sometimes look through the FreeRepublic site.  Yesterday, they did a list of their least favorite carols. Guess what the most mentioned ones were?

Happy Xmas (War is Over), of course.  Simply Having a Wonderful Christmas Time - apparently the Beatles aren't popular with these folks. 

But the most mentioned song, the one that makes these guys and gals tear their hair out every time they hear it, was...




Feliz Navidad.

Hey, there, fellas.  Could we please stop being parodies of ourselves?  We're trying to have a society here.
