I’ve been very carefully building a Christmas playlist for the past few years. I only add one song a year, and I only listen to the songs on the list between Thanksgiving and the Epiphany. There are now ten songs on the list.
- “The Fairytale of New York” by The Pogues
- “Hallelujah” by Jeff Buckley
- “Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas” by Judy Garland
- “Happy Xmas (War is Over)” by John Lennon
- “White Christmas” by Bing Crosby
- “Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!” by Dean Martin
- (New) “The Christmas Song” by Nat “King” Cole
- “Baby It’s Cold Outside” by Ella Fitzgerald & Louis Jordan
- “Peace On Earth/Little Drummer Boy” by David Bowie & Bing Crosby
- “Merry Xmas Everybody” by Slade
