To fall on your hands and knees in front of a bunch of yard workers on your way home from work holding a bunch of groceries and bottles of booze.
Sigh. I have made my customary xmas mixes for the impending holiday season. I celebrate Christmas even though I am not religious. I LOVE Christmas! Love love love. It reminds me of my family being all together and happy(ish)!
Here is the list of my "Classic Xmas" mix:
First Noel
What Child Is This?
Good King Wenceslas
We Three Kings
Silent Night
God Rest Ye Merry, Gentlemen
Handel's Messiah: Hallelujah
The 12 Days of Xmas
Sussex Carol
Carol of the Bells
Have Yourself a Merry Little Xmas
O Come All Ye Faithful
Ode to Joy
Good Christian Men, Rejoice
Sleigh Ride
Deck the Halls
Waltz of the Flowers
O Little Town of Bethlehem
Angels We Have Heard on High
Adeste Fideles
The Holly & The Ivy
Hark! The Herald Angels Sing
O Come Emmanuel
I have a "Funky Xmas" one too that I will share with you at some other point. I particularly enjoy recordings from Westminster Boys' Choir, St. Paul's Cathedral, Trinity Church Wall Street, London Symphony Orchestra.
And Judy Garland's "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas" which I'm listening to right now. Nuthin like it.
I have to go sew something. Merry Merry!
