Christmas Mixxx

(1/9) > >>

Johnny C:
I get a ride to school every morning with another fellow. This other fellow drives three other people to school, as well. We're all going to make a holiday mix CD for the coming weeks, and each week will be dedicated to one CD.

What I would like is if you guys could help me come up with a tracklisting and also maybe some YSIs or something. I'm thinking "covers of traditional tunes" mixed with occasional "christmas novelty songs."

Tomservo:
I was trying to do this myself so I could listen to some decent music at my store (which now sells Christmas ornaments)  Here's what I found.

Blue Christmas - Bright Eyes
Little Drum Machine Boy - Beck
Lonely Christmas Eve - Ben Folds
Christmas (Baby Please Come Home) - Death Cab for Cutie
Christmas at the Zoo - The Flaming Lips
Everythings Gonna Be Cool This Christmas - The Eels
Christmas Is Going to the Dogs - The Eels
Carol Of The Bells - Phantom Planet
Thank God It's Christmas - Queen
Merry Christmas - Wesley Willis

If you want any of these I can put it up on You send it

RUMBLEMOOSE:
The Flaming Lips' "Christmas At the Zoo," whether it's really about Christmas or simply takes place at Christmastime is up for debate though.

If it's your thing, Low also has an eight-song EP of Christmas songs, including an original or two.

And Tristan da Cunha had an incredible cover of "Winter Wonderland" but I don't think they ever recorded it, nor are they a widely bootlegged band. Might be worth hunting for if you have the p2p tools.

Mr. Oysterhead:
Thunderbirds Are Now! - Hollis if that's more your speed.

A Change At Christmas(Say it Aint So) - The Flaming Lips
