2005 Christmas Survival Music Mix
As the holiday season swings into high gear, we will soon be overwhelmed sonically by Christmas classics and various modern renditions of these songs as we hit the local malls and megamarts, hunting for gifts and spreading seasonal expletive-driven cheer while searching for parking spaces. In an effort to save our collective sanity this holiday season, I put forth my humble musical selections as an alternative to the repetitive and often irritating Christmas catalogs that exist out there. At least some will make us think of warm weather ;-)
