My Non-Traditional Christmas Classics
As the season comes upon us, the air is filled with the traditional songs of Christmas. While the usuals are nice, I’ve grown to enjoy some non-traditional tunes over the normal ones. It’s really never Christmas to me until I work my way through them.
Therefore, I figured it’d be interesting to share a top twelve (yeah, I couldn’t limit to ten) of my favourite songs to get into the mood for the holidays. Links will take you to a YouTube version of the song in question (except for What the Hell Child is This?, which goes to Last.fm).

- This Christmas - Harry Connick, Jr.
