BP's Xmas Mix: This is a mix I made about 8 years ago & have been giving it to friends ever since; this year, I'm giving it to you! Track listing inside.[More:]

You can stream or download this via Divshare. (If you play the first song, it'll keep playing through all 22 songs.)

It repeats a song Miko has shared on her musical advent calendar, and one song from my Phil Spector post last week, but I think it all fits so well as a continuous mix that I have included all of the tracks here. There are a lot of Georgia artists, some old favorites, at least one pagan reference, and "Marshmallow World" as sung by robots. Happy holiday joy to all of you bunnies, with hugs from BP!

01 Burl Ives "Holly Jolly Christmas"
02 The Kinks "Father Christmas"
03 The Waitresses "Christmas Wrapping"
04 The Wedding Present "Step Into Christmas"
05 Vince Guaraldi Trio "Christmastime Is Here"
06 John Lennon "So This Is Christmas"
07 The Opal Foxx Quartet "On Christmas Day"
08 Low "Just Like Christmas"
09 Vince Guaraldi Trio "Hark, The Herald Angels Sing"
10 Alison Moyet "The Coventry Carol"
11 Bill Taft & Kelly Hogan "O Magnum Mysterium"
12 Calexico "Gift X-Change"
13 Ciao Bella "Christmas Time"
14 La Brea Stompers "You're A Mean One Mr. Grinch"
15 Jimmy Durante "Frosty The Snowman"
16 The Pogues w/ Kirsty MacColl "Fairytale of New York"
17 The Ronettes "I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus"
18 Kevn Kinney "Thomas Tinsel's Holiday"
19 Low "Little Drummer Boy"
20 Emerson Lake & Palmer "I Believe In Father Christmas"
21 Jethro Tull "Another Christmas Song"
22 Vic20 "A Marshmallow World"
Perfect, thank you, darling.

Here's that clip from Love Actually-- what else hasn't been posted yet? Darlene Love? For once i'll avoid posting my usual "Please, Daddy"n "What We Do On Christmas", etc.

Downing some holiday fare, any requests? There's a Kate Bush "Home for Christmas" and a few other hopefuls slowly draining from the tubes.
i swear someone else must have done "Last Christmas" besides Wham! and the my pal god one i have.

A great Christmas comp. You hit many of my faves (Kinks, Pogues, and Ronnettes to name just a few). For a while I made a new Christmas comp every year, but I got tired of doing it. But after seeing this and a few others I think I should get back on the Christmas mix wagon.

BTW, the John Lennon song (track 6) was corrupted during the upload and had a file size of zero, so I re-sent it:
