No for real, Happy Christmaholiday season.

NOT like this.

In a little while, we’ll be posting our year end lists.  That will be our true present to you, our readers.  Promise.  But for now, we’re stuck in the true holiday season, full of great cheer, excepting for the mostly loathsome genre of Christmas music.  Thankfully, there are a few songs that are decent.  Some of them are new, some old, and none of them from the last post qualify.  Try these out for sound today.
