Christmas Music Corner

“Sometimes on Christmas, people get dumped or lose their jobs, or spend the night in jail. So here’s a mix of off-the-beaten-path holiday songs for those people, and for the rest of us.”
 — NPR has an off-the-beaten-path “Jingle Jams” mix. For lovers of the beaten path, however, Spotify has an Ultimate Holiday Playlist, and Turntable.fm is having a hit-or-miss “Christmas Music Extravaganza.” I’m also on Turntable spinning in a Christmas Choir Music room, if anyone would like to join me. No jokes here, just Christmas enthusiasm and, upon listening to certain songs, sadness.
