Christmas Music Post. Get Stoked.

Okay, SO... My computer harddrive crashed forever ago and I STILL haven't put my pictures/music/documents back on my computer.  Which means, I was relying heavily on Pandora for Christmas Carols.  EPIC FAIL because I definitely have some favorites, and even when you select them as stations on Pandora... they don't actually get played.

SOLUTION: I've been individually you-tubing or downloading them... Meaning, I will SHARE ALL THE LINKS WITH YOU.  You are welcome for the following 2 playlists.

THE MOM PLAYLIST 

You don't have to be a mom to appreciate these.

However, I am including them especially for my mom to download.

So, Mom... these are links.... just click away and MAKE IT HAPPEN

Carol of the Bells- Barlow Girl

Little Drummer Boy- Josh Groban

O Come, O Come Emanuel- Sixpence None the Richer

Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas- James Taylor

Happy XMas (War is Over)- Vanessa Carlton

I Heard the Bells on Christmas Day- Pedro the Lion

THE NEVER-GET-OLD PLAYLIST

I'm not going to lie... I get tired of the same-old-songs REMADE.  EVERY YEAR. 

I'll listen to them once or sometimes only half way through, then move on.

(that ALWAYS causes problems on Pandora b/c you can only skip so many)

THESE I have/will listen to three times in a row.  Probably More.

p.s. some of them are from my childhood *cough, Hanson, cough*

p.p.s. they are listed in FAVORITE order (for this year, at least)

ENJOY ENJOY.  Other than YouTube, you should be able to "Save As" for the files or just straight up download them.  If the links don't work for you, COMMENT so I can fix them.  You should find ALL of them on itunes though if you are worried about downloading them "illegally".

MERRY CHRISTMAS.
