I adore The Raveonettes. In fact, they are one of my very favorite bands. Their music reminds me of a flash back to the 60′s or something. Not that I was alive in the 60′s, but I imagine they would fit in just fine there. This song, “The Christmas Song”, is a dreamy little diddy [...]

A few years ago my husband played his favorite Christmas song for me – The Pogues “Fairytale of New York”. I have to be honest, at first I wasn’t in love with it. But then I listened, and listened some more, and now it is one my favorites too. Having a lot of Irish in [...]

Check out the video for “The Dancing Christmas Tree” song. It’s pretty cute and if you have small children or toddlers they should be mesmerized by the dancing figures.

I found this lovely version of “Oh Holy Night” performed by Susan Boyle on Youtube. She sounds absolutely angelic and lovely. I have to say “Oh Holy Night” is by far my favorite Christmas song. That said, I think she does it justice. God bless Susan Boyle and may she have continued success!

His sweet melodies are romantic and lovely. Apparently, this song, Donna & Blitzen, was featured in a commercial for Sears. Enjoy the animal pictures that [...]

Take a moment from your day to relax and listen to Christmas Time is Here. Such a simple yet such a beautiful song. Vince Guaralidi Trio really know how to make that warm Christmas feeling come alive! Charlie Brown Christmas reminds me of all my wonderful childhood memories and how exciting Christmas really is. Oh, [...]

I know I recently posted a different Sufjan Stevens Christmas song but I couldn’t resist posting another. Also, as I just posted “Joy to the World” by Dolly Parton yesterday, I thought this would be a great way to follow up on that. I own the box set “Songs for Christmas” by Sufjan and I [...]

I love Sufjan Stevens and this adorable video about Christmas time. Here are a some of my favorite lyrics from the song: Call your grandmom on the phone! Call her on the phone, call her on the phone If she’s living all alone, if she’s all alone, if she’s all alone. Here is the video [...]
