'Tis the Season...

Mainly, I just wanted to step in here and say that I am alive and kicking...long story short, my DOG is causing all of my computer sessions to be short...

I was thinking, with it being Christmas and all, and with this being a music blog...let's talk Christmas music shall we?

Due to some...frustrating...circumstances, I haven't had access to most of my Christmas music, but I do have a mix laying around that I made last year with some of my favorite recordings on it, and I just thought I would share a couple of those with you.

(Oh, and seeing as the CD is in my truck, and I'm too lazy to go get it, this isn't all of the songs, and they certainly aren't in order)

1) "Santa, Baby" recorded by Cynthia Bassinet (sp?). This recording is often mistaken as being by Marilyn Monroe, so if you see one with that stamp, it's actually this chick singing.

2) "Baby, It's Cold Outside" recorded by Zooey Deschanel and Leon Redbone (from the Elf soundtrack!)

3) "Mary, Did You Know?" recorded by Clay Aiken (guilty pleasure, here)

4) "I Wonder as I Wander" recorded by Jewel and some other chick

5) "Sleigh Ride" recorded by the Brian Setzer Orchestra

6) "God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen" recorded by Rascall Flatts (I assure you, probably the only thing they've ever recorded that I like...)

7) "O Come All Ye Faithful" recorded by Weezer

8) "Do You Hear What I Hear" recorded by Flyleaf

9) "Merry Fucking Christmas" recorded by Mr. Garrison (hahaha)

10) "Chinese Food on Christmas" written/recorded by Bryan Walker (I think that's his name anyway...)

11) "Grown-Up Christmas List" recorded by Kelly Clarkson

12) "Silent Night" recorded by Boyz II Men

13) "You're a Mean One, Mr. Grinch" recorded by the guy from the cartoon haha

14) "Christmas, Don't Be Late" recorded by Alvin and the Chipmunks

15) "Carol of the Bells" recorded by Destiny's Child (a very interesting a capella)

16) "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer" recorded by The Temptations (LOVE THIS ONE!)

There are 24 songs on that mix, plus one that my friend made me that has some great stuff on it too, but I'm having trouble remembering everything. Well those are some of my faves. What are yours?
