Well, it’s finally that time of year again. Everyone’s putting together their holiday playlists, so what kind of blogger would I be if I didn’t contribute? Rarely do I dish out two-parters, but you guys were good this year. Part one is full of classic songs that most people have heard through the media, church, etc. Part two are songs written by the artists themselves. Hopefully you volunteer to bring the music to your family gatherings. Don’t forget to snag last year’s Christmas mixes right here.
