Christmas Music

im a fairly unenthusiastic person when it comes to most holidays, and christmas is no exception, but this year im kinda starting to get a bit more into the spirit...i guess because im starting to hear some familiar songs (and some not-so-familiar) sang by people who can actually sing...no offense, but johnny cash and elvis have some of the most annoying voices ive ever heard and they should not be allowed to record holiday albums...it doesnt help that my mother has some kind of strange obsession with christmas song and needs to buy every new holiday cd that comes out!! anyway, back to the better artists...here are some examples:

• hawk nelson's christmas cd, including "last christmas"
• taylor swift's "santa baby" and "last christmas"
• the jonas brothers' "girl of my dreams", "joyful kings", and "christmas song" (that ones really really REALLY old...)
• flyleaf's "christmas song"
• fm static's version of "christmas shoes"

you can look all of them up on youtube...but yeah, since im hearing more and more christmas songs being recorded by artists with actual talent, i haven't minded most of the christmas spirit this year...its weird, i know...of course, im STILL not crazy about all these unecessary holiday parties my mother insists on throwing...people...ew...
