Yuletide Mix

This mixtape might be perfect for =

A. Bundling up
B. Shopping for xmas gifts
C. Decorating the tree
D. Drawing stuff on fogged up windows
E. Preparing for a cold Winter


Sure, I've done seasonal mixes before, but this time around I think I'm most satisfied with my "Yuletide" mix because it's full of not-so-typical holiday songs ... I sort of went out of my way searching for music that's either wintery or Christmassy, but doesn't usually land on a holiday mix ...


I think part of the inspiration behind this mentality was the fact that, at least here in Alabama, it didn't really get cold until just recently and I wasn't feeling the spirit yet ... So I was just craving something a bit ... different, as opposed to all the typical over-played traditional stuff ...


So there you have it! And here it is for your seasonal pleasure: the "Yuletide Mix" ... ENJOY =
