There aren’t many Christmas songs in which the chorus begins: “Santa, you bitch.”
Dude didn’t get a damn thing from his Christmas list…
I mean WTF, Santa?
Thing 2 introduced this song into my holiday collection.
Here’s The Maine with Santa Stole My Girlfriend.
Please listen responsibly.
It’s December and that means I’m playing holiday music 24/7 up in my nest!
So for the next four weeks, Tuesday’s tunes will be holiday themed.
I love exploring different versions of traditional Christmas songs.
Sometimes they’re rocking, or jazzy. Sometimes they’re orchestral or sung by a choir.
Sometimes they’re bluesy as all get out.
Here’s White Christmas from Eric Clapton.
Please listen responsibly.
This song is quite possibly my favorite closing number. And y’all that’s no simple choice!
Here’s You Can’t Stop the Beat from Hairspray (2007)
Please listen responsibly.
I was eleven when I bought my first 45. It was Toto’s Africa.
I was forty seven when Weezer remade Africa.
I liked it!
Weezer covered Toto’s Africa.
Asked Weird Al to star in the vid, which is pretty much just a parody of their vid for Undone (The Sweater Song)
Leaves me wondering how far on can cram one’s tongue in one’s cheek.
Please listen responsibly.
I’ve liked Bastille since the Bad Blood album in 2013.
And love this Marshmello and Bastille collaboration.
The video wasn’t what I expected when I first heard the lyrics, but it was beautiful!
*warning*
You will cry real tears.
This is Happier.

I know it’s late in the day, but I’ve been driving home from Charleston.
So quickly, this is a band I absolutely adore!
Here’s Vampire Weekend’s Unbelievers from Modern Vampires of the City.
Please listen responsibly.
I’m not completely obsessing over this song, but I do quite like it.
I especially dig the concept.
This is The Beths with Future Me Hates Me
Please listen responsibly.
Today I’m sharing a curious sort of break up song.
Da da da dat da dat da da da da ya da da da dat dat da ya da!
Da da da dat da dat da da da da ya da da da dat – Everybody!
(in case you want to sing along)
This is Jonathan Groff as King George III with You’ll be Back
Please listen responsibly.
Walking away from that Hamilton sound track any moment now…
wait for it…
wait for it…
Am currently obsessed with this song!
Every single time it comes on the radio, I restart it at least once. (thanks Hyundai, Alt Nation, and XMU)
It has a lovely melody, catchy chorus, and I absolutely adore Alexander O’Connor’s voice!
This is Loving is Easy by Rex Orange County with Benny Sings.
Please listen responsibly.
Thing 2 turned me on to this artist, and I’m so grateful she did. I love his voice!
He lives in Philly and Sundance’s nieces play with his kids at the playground.
How cool is that?!?
This morning I want to play his new song for you.
This is Kurt Vile with Loading Zones.
Please listen responsibly.
(...and some I have)
Because there's never enough time to do it right the first time but there's always enough time to do it over
Curiosity to Infinity
When I was young, my dad would always say, "Crystal, you can choose your attitude." One day I chose to believe him.
