Our family enjoys Christmas music and we have it playing on our stereo from Thanksgiving to New Year’s Day, but these are the songs that (for various reasons) my wife won’t let me play during Christmas:
One of my all time favorites – David Bowie and Bing Crosby:
Bing (again), this time with White Christmas, which originated in the film Holiday Inn:
I happened across a version of this meme and decided to list a few of my favorite Artists/Bands from A-Z.
These aren’t necessarily my favorite songs by each of these artists, but I tried to find songs that were either well performed, unusual, or a version different from the one heard on the radio (yet, some are my favorite songs by that artist/band). I’ve linked each artist/band to a YouTube video for your listening/viewing pleasure.
I would like to see your list, so be sure to link back if you decide to join in on the fun by creating your own list (no need to link to videos – that was just my way to kill some time on a day off). Since the list is alphabetical, it seems that librarians and booksellers might find this enjoyable (no pressure Chartroose, Rebecca, Michael and Ann, and Stacy). Of course, it is always good to hear from other friends as well.
Click on the artist or band to see and hear a song (be sure to check out Heart – it’s a great version of their song). You might not recognize the names of all these artists, so click on their name to discover who they are:
"Life is what happens to you when you're busy making other plans." - John Lennon

"Experience is something you get... right after you need it." - Steven Wright
