There was an old thread on this, but it only had a few hits. Since we have a fun thread reviling Christmas songs, I thought I would start a rival thread on which are your favorite songs or albums.

Mine:

Vince Guaraldi's A Charlie Brown Christmas - love the jazz piano style of this artist. Favorite song on the album is the instrumental Christmas Time is Here. Serene and melancholy at the same time.

The Boston Pops - Nutcracker Suite. When my parents put this album on when I was a kid, we knew it was really Christmas time. 

Other favs: Brian Setzer's version of the Nutcracker Suite. Nat King Cole's version of Mel Torme's Christmas Song. Jingle Bell Rock- Bill Haley and Rockin' Around the Christmas Tree - Brenda Lee. Winter Wonderland and Sleigh Ride.

Silent night for me.  A good reminder of the true meaning of Christmas.

I like them all, in measured doses.

Except the rap ones.

Vince Guaraldi songs are classics. I like the new She & Him album. Below is Winter Wonderland with a slide guitar. Here's the whole album. My favorite is Diana Krall's Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas, her wayback 1995 version.

Every year I get into my Christmas mix making.  I started doing it when I was in my mid 20's . .so now almost 20 years later, there are mostly just small adds/subtracts.  I'm not finding amazing new Christmas songs every year, lol.  

Anyway - here is the greatest "Cool Christmas Mix" song of all time:

 

Other tracks that make the cut just about every year:

Anders Lewin - Funky Christmas

The Ventures - Blue Christmas

Eels - Everything's Gonna Be Cool This Christmas

 

Some that are great but don't make it every year (due to getting played-out):

James Brown - Soulful Christmas

Otis Redding - White Christmas

The Ramones - Merry Christmas (I don't wanna fight tonight)

Merry Christmas all.

I was searching for the other threads on this topic. I know there were some longer ones but can't find them. 

Even using a Google search.

I use old Taylor Made clubs from eBay and golf shops.

They're all pretty darn nostalgic to hear every year, but I'm enjoying this version of Silent Night at the moment:

Always fond of Nat King Coles Christmas album and the two that Johnny Mathis put together. I know that’s not a song but those albums remind me of my childhood Christmasses. Remind me of decorating our tree (my dad would always put those records on) as we did decorating.

      Day 24 (4 Dec 25) - Spent about an hour working with the new 55° wedge in the backyard.  Kept all shots to under 20yds.  Big focus - not decelerating thru downswing and keeping speed up with abbreviated backswing.  Nothing like hitting a low flighted chip with plenty of check spin and then purpose to float a pitch of similar distance.

      Day 114 12-4 Put some work in on backswing, moving the hips correctly, then feeling over to lead side. Didn't hit any balls was just focused on keeping flowy and moving better. I'll probably do another session tonight and add in some foam balls.

      Didn't say anything about your understanding in my post.  Well, if you are not insisting on alignment with logic of the WHS, then no.  Try me/us. What do you want from us then?? You are not making sense. You come here and post in an open forum, question a system that is constructed with logic, without using any of your own and then give us a small window of your personal experience to support your narrative which at first sight does not makes sense.  I mean, if you are a point of swearing then I would suggest you cut your losses and humor a more gullible audience elsewhere. Good heavens.
