YOU Make It Feel Like Christmas
If you know me then you know that I LOVE Gwen Stefani. And I had to get this Christmas album as soon as I heard about it – which was very early since I follow Gwen on everything possible – facebook, instagram. Yeah, a little obsessed. 🙂 Gwen Stefani You Make It Feel Like Christmas CD is here.
It’s fantastic. It’s got your covers – Santa Baby (her voice was made for this song), Jingle Bells, White Christmas and all these are great. But what really made me love this even more are her own songs – My Gift Is You and Under The Christmas Lights. It’s Gwen’s retro style with a modern Christmas pop twist.

There’s just something about the sea. Mesmerizing.
Wham! ~ Last Christmas
Okay, I try to not repeat the Christmas songs I post from Christmas’ past … even though some of my favs slip through (cough, The Waitresses, Christmas Wrapping). My Spanish students for some reason LOVE this song. So, here you go. WHAM! ~ “Last Christmas”. Don’t forget, oh you know. TURN IT UP. XO
ps – It’s almost Christmas!? How did this happen?
Run-D.M.C. ~ Christmas in Hollis
You know you grew up in the 80s when you like rocking out to Run-D.M.C. One of my favorite groups back then and started my love for rap with them, the Beastie Boys, Fat Boys, Salt N Pepa, Eminem, LL Cool J. Who was your favorite?
The boys from Hollis, Queens, NY also made my favorite Christmas rap song – “Christmas in Hollis”. And don’t forget to do what? That’s right. TURN IT UP.
Christmas Wrapping
Alright, alright, alright! Let’s spice things up a bit and get some music going. Nothing starts the season better than The Waitresses song “Christmas Wrapping”.
TURN. IT. UP.
He’s Mr. White Christmas
Who remembers this one? Mr. Snow Miser? Mr. Heat Miser?
This really brings back the memories of living in Madison, WI in the duplex on Offshore Dr. This is definitely a classic, they don’t play this anymore. Is that showing my age?
Snow Miser is a character from the 1974 special The Year Without a Santa Claus. In the special, Snow Miser controlled cold weather all over the Earth; his archnemesis is his brother, Mr. Heat Miser. Santa woke up with a cold and his doctor tells Santa to take a holiday because nobody cares about Christmas anymore. So it is up to too elves, Jingle and Jangle to find people who still believe in Mr. Claus. And somewhere along the way Mrs. Claus gets joined up to fight the good fight and return Christmas!
And in eager anticipation …… Mr. Snow Miser.
Fading
I’ve been in a bit of a blog funk. I am sure you have noticed. Pardon my break, but I think I need one. I will try to be back within due time….if that makes any sense.
Mazzy Star. Awesome. Have loved them for eons. I think it is the perfect fading out song.
