Get Merry!

Yes, these are Christmas songs. I don't think I've mentioned this too often, but I love Christmas. I can get massively cynical about the presents aspect of it, and I don't always look forward to awkward meetings with relatives, but I love it. So anything that adds to that atmosphere, especially music, is okay in my book.
Sadly, I haven't gotten into the spirit of it yet. I wish it would snow. But until it does, this is the next best thing: the aural equivalent of getting in the door of your family home, breathing in the warmth, and shaking the frost from your scarf-covered shoulders. Yes!
