My Christmas Playlist
I thought I’d pull together a list of my favorite Christmas songs. I’m kind of picky about what I like at Christmas. I’m not wild about much of the newest versions of the old songs. Here are some of my favorites (in no particular order)
“Jingle Bell Rock” ~ Bobby Helms – It’s just classic.
“I’ll Be Home for Christmas” ~ Bing Crosby – this one makes me sad and think about the people in my life that aren’t there any longer. But it also makes me glad I knew them.
“Have a Holly Jolly Christmas” ~ Burl Ives – now that I know he was blacklisted, I love it even more.
“Here Comes Santa Claus (Right Down Santa Claus Lane)” ~ Gene Autry – we sang this song at school. It reminds me of being in the first grade.
“Rockin’ Around the Christmas Tree” ~ Brenda Lee – doesn’t she have the best Christmas songs? Besides, how can you not love it and not think of Home Alone?
“Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas” ~ Judy Garland – makes me sad, yet Christmassy, too.
“White Christmas” ~ Bing Crosby – it’s just a classic
“Santa Claus is Comin’ to Town” ~ Bruce Springsteen – okay, I love how he asks how many have behaved and when he gets a poor response, he says, ah…not many, not many. Cracks me up.
“Santa Baby” ~ Eartha Kitt – she makes Christmas sexy ?

I know I left off the Drifters, Otis Redding and Darlene Love among others. They’re on the longer list. What are your favorite Christmas songs? Do you lean classic or contemporary? I’d love to know.
Taylor Fyre never thought he’d find love at the dog park, but when he spots Nicky Campbell and his dog, Nagy, he begins to think the impossible is possible.
Taylor Fyre isn’t wild about dogs. He’s got serious reservations about the animals and the last thing he wants to do is cover a story about the dog park. When he arrives at the park, he realizes facing his fears won’t be easy, but if Nicky Campbell is part of the healing process, he’s ready to start. The handsome, tattooed mechanic makes him want to bare his soul. But Nicky’s got a dog and things could get sticky.
Nicky Campbell would rather keep to himself than talk to new people. He’s tired of being labeled dangerous because of his tattoos. His dog, Nagy, a pit bull mix, faces the same discrimination. When Nicky runs into Taylor at the dog park, he expects a fight. But the more they talk, the more he’s drawn to the polished reporter. If he and Taylor can overcome their differences and be themselves, they might find they have plenty in common and can have the forever they both deserve.

I enjoy the ones you listed but I love the classics like O Holy Night and It Came upon a Midnight Clear.
Great list of Christmas songs, I agree they are classics. I have always enjoyed Blue Christmas by Elvis and The Christmas Song by Nat King Cole
I pretty much enjoy all the Christmas songs. Classic or contemporary. They all get my holiday spirit lifted
Perfect list!
