I own a ton of Christmas music. I will not apologize for it. I used to have a page on the site that documented it all, with links to Amazon. Back when people used to care about me, my link was on page 1 of the Google results for Charlie Brown Christmas Soundtrack. THAT was how much I ruled the universe.
These days, people don’t need me to find that CD. But, I still have many many (many) fans sitting in their dark and dirty rooms, lit only with the light of a laptop monitor, the buzzing of traffic their only companions, wondering: “For baby Jesus’ sake, WHAT CHRISTMAS MUSIC DID JODY ADD TO HER COLLECTION THIS YEAR??!!”
I will only document complete albums, not individual songs, unless the individual songs are kick-ass. Actually, I’ve downloaded so much free stuff that I don’t know which individual songs are kick-ass yet. (Please, before time runs out, check out the Amazon MP3 site for their 25 free songs – maybe one of them will appeal to you?)
Albums/CDs I purchased this year, in no particular order:
- Christmas Remixed: Holiday Classics Re-grooved
- Christmas Cheer – Straight No Chaser
- Cello Music For Christmas – The Christmas Cello
- Merry Flippin’ Christmas Vol 1 and 2 – Bowling for Soup
- This is Christmas – Emmy the Great and Tim Wheeler
So the musical Christmas spirit is alive and well Chez Dump. Keep on singing!
Thanks for the tip about Amazon! I just downloaded 21 songs! Woo-Hoo!
The ‘cello one sounds interesting.
The Christmas music post is a little late this year!! I’ve been hanging on since mid-November
