Ah. Do They Know It's Christmas, in the office, not a great mix for me.
Dawn: I thought you were adequate. Giles: And the accolades keep pouring in. I'd best take my leave before my head swells any larger. Good night.

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
As for Asheville I might even be able to score us a cheap awesome house to stay in.
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."

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
I'll be playing four hours of Xmas music on the radio this Friday, 8am to Noon!

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
You, or will Santa Claus be sitting in for you?

I'm in negotiations with Claus right now. Bastard is holding out for more money (& frankincense & myrrh).

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Does J still work there?
Tom, I'm listening to the weird Xmas songs right now and it's, uh, interesting.

Hmm, I don't know! I don't know the names of any of the people there; we've only been a few times so far. (Should I know who J is?)
