Christmas 2015 Playlist
I debated whether I should put together another playlist this year because although I love Christmas music to no end, it's kind of like if you hear one rendition of Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas, you've heard them all. I was also afraid that I would just fill up this year's playlist with my select favorites again. But I threw caution to the wind and scoured Spotify and put together a new playlist that really feels like it's own thing. There's only one repeated song (I think) because no Christmas playlist is complete without All I Want For Christmas Is You by Mariah Carey, but the rest is fresh and different with a mix of english carols, classic christmas tunes, reimagined holiday standards, and completely new songs. And I'm sure I'll add a song or two as the season continues. For now check out the full playlist on Spotify, in the embed player or in the track listing below.
