The Playlist

I've started my month-long homage to Christmas music. 

I'm addicted. 

It's a sickness, really.

From the classics, to wierd pop holiday ditties, to Joni Mitchell...singing about that river...I just love Christmas music.

Which makes me want to take stock in the music we've been listening to this fall/winter. Because we won't be hearing it for a while.  And I don't want to forget these bad-boys when this holiday madness is over...

  • Folsom Prison (although we've learned that a 5-year old will take "I shot a man in Reno, just to watch him die" to circle time at school if not told otherwise).
  • Fishing in the Dark (lazy yellow moon coming up tonight, shining thru the trees - reminds me of home)  
  • Forget You (Oh, Cee-Lo, I shouldn't let my children listen to you - but I do)
  • Do-re-mi (Julie Andrews, do you have any idea what you've done to my family?)
  • Sweet Caroline (Glee version - most of the music we listen to these days is a Glee version)
  • Bust-a-move (for the dancing portion of the program)
  • Poker Face (Stella is a Lady Gaga monster)
  • Happy Days (Judy, Barbara - I mean, come on.)

Okay, playlist, we'll see you next year. 

For now, I'll just be over here...listening to the Charlie Brown Christmas album.
