Hey lady! Nashvegas is treating me very well. :-) When are you gonna come visit??
No. You're missing the point. The design of the thing is functional. The plan is not to shoot you. The plan is to get the girl. If there's no girl, then the plan, well, is like the room.

Buffista Music 4: Needs More Cowbell!
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
This is where I have to mention that apparently the Jack Jones Christmas Album that I listened to growing up is now worth about $100!. My favorites for sentimental reasons are that, The Kingston Trio's Last Month of the Year and of course The Ray Conniff Singers Christmas Album.

Oh, nd I forgot the Harry Connick, Jr!
Not albums, but my favorite songs as a retail clerk-- the ones that made me happy no matter how many times I heard them were Christmas in Kilarny, Mele Kalikimaka (the Hawaiian Christmas SOng) and The Waitresses' Christmas Wrapping. Everything else seemed to blur into one big mass of annoying music that played from before Thanksgiving until February.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
When are you gonna come visit??
Well, first they have to clear the rocks off I-40... but really I don't know. I've got LA in Jan, NoLa in March, maybe the f2f, and I'd really like to go visit my brother in Seattle. Meeting halfway in Asheville is easier but I would love to get back to Nashville sometime. As for Asheville I might even be able to score us a cheap awesome house to stay in.

Ah. Do They Know It's Christmas, in the office, not a great mix for me.

Ooh! I would also be up for meeting in Asheville -- we haven't been there yet. But I would love to have you come visit us here in Nashville too.
And to bring this post back on topic, I'm loving all the holiday music suggestions! Another one that must be mentioned is Vince Guaraldi's A Charlie Brown Christmas, of course. There's a bar in East Nashville (The Family Wash) that hosts several performances of A Charlie Brown Christmas every year by local group The Ornaments. We went to see them last week and it was SO much fun -- great music, great food, little kids dancing with their parents, an impromptu caroling session. I love that place.

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.
I just listened to John Denver and the Muppets' "A Christmas Together." Hands down my favorite holiday album. Besides the obvious nostagia factor, there are some really lovely songs on there that one doesn't really hear elsewhere.
Yes! It's my favorite holiday album, too.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I borrowed heavily from Wintergrace for a nice/religious mix I made for my parents this year -- thanks, David!
I also love the Roches.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
We are partial to Leon Redbone's "Island Christmas."
