With our first snowfall of this year this past weekend, I organized all my Christmas music and transferred it onto my iPod. My commute is now filled with the sounds of the season; it really makes going to work that much more fun!
I have to say though, I'm pretty picky when it comes to Christmas music. I know what I like, and certain songs or types of Christmas music just don't do it for me. I love the classics; it's so comforting to hear Dean Marin tell his Baby it's cold outside, or Frank Sinatra wishing everyone to have a merry little Christmas. Yes, the classics are wonderful, however, I also like songs or albums that incorporate a fun twist on the classics, I love the album called Christmas Remixed - it's so awesome!
you know all those trendy remixed carols on the Joe Fresh commercials? you'll find them in this album! |
The ultimate Christmas album for me? Definitely Chiristmas with Boney M. The songs on this album instantly transport me back to Christmas as a kid; somethin' about the steel drums mixed in with the Christmas carols makes me feel like I'm 10 again. Another reason why I like this album is becuase it contains what I believe to be the greatest Chrstmas song ever written: Mary's Boy Child/Oh My Lord. If you've never experienced this song, I urge you to listen to it this season. If nothing else, this song will make you want to jump up and dance; yes, it's that awesome.
best. chrstmas. album. ever. |
My family and friends also share my love for this song. It's become a recent tradition among our group of friends to get together during the holidays, cook a turkey, drink martinis, and sing and dance to this song. No lies, the song probably gets played AT LEAST twenty times during the night. It's epic.
I love Christmas!
