Dreamy xmas music for your Saturday

Sexy Baby Christmas Mine mp3 Morphine from Morphine: Best of 1992-1995 This track is so haunting… it’s almost too creepy to be a real Christmas song. (click on the album name to buy it on Amazon)

No Christmas While I’m Talking mp3 The Walkmen from Bows + Arrows And really, I’m not sure what to make of this one either, but the more I listen to it, the more I love it. But, I’m weird like that, you know. It’s not a Christmas song in any way, shape or form. It’s actually a horribly painful song to hear once you know the lyrics. If you really must know, click here. I appreciate the Walkmen more than I did before I heard this track, I’ll say that much. (click on the album name to buy it on Amazon)

These two I received in my inbox this week:
Listen To The Choir Sing mp3 from Ian McGlynn, a sweet little song (a one-off, but click on his name to go to his site to purchase it) that evokes some real Christmas feelings. Please go check his website out, you can listen to his album This is the Sound there, it’s beautiful singer/songwriter, piano-heavy music and features that angelic voice.

Snow Angels mp3 from Boca Chica. I had this all ready to post, and then realized that it was from the ever-so-wonderful 2009 Indiecater Christmas record! You really must go over to Kevin’s site and hear the wonderful album he’s compiled … yes, you can stream the whole thing and then purchase it for only 6 Euros, that’s not much, my American friends!
