Christmas music

Ellie

Just wondering if anybody likes listening to Christmas music?

If so, do you have any particular favourites? I'm currently listening to a playlist on Spotify called Mystical Christmas. The songs on the playlist are gorgeous, highly recommended.

Please let me know if you like Christmas music and any favourites you have?

  • Love Christmas music, with few exceptions. And I have some Christmassy Doctor Who audios I play every year in the run-up to Christmas Eve, the spiritual/atmospheric  epicentre of the holiday for me, and the musical score in those is wonderful too. 

    I love most carols, the vast majority of the old favourite pop songs (especially 1980s ones)  of the season, and so on. And I like a few more obscure ones like Low's Christmas Album and the woozy arrangement of Frosty the Snowman done by Cocteau Twins. Al, part of the heady uniqueness of the season. 

    One very particular tradition I have: listening to the nativity part of my old BBC vinyl record (from 1978) of the BBC Watch (programme for Schools) album as I decorate my 40-something year old tree with its equally aged lights and decorations! Analogue bliss as I step back in time with one foot very much still in the present. One more trip around the sun, and into the blissful deep dark of those early nights and magical soft coloured lights. A cosy soundtrack to the cosiest of seasons...
