I’m working on an article/mix for a local magazine I freelance for. I generally can’t get into Christmas music, but a few of my favorites:
Low – Little Drummer Boy
Juliana Hatfield – Make It Home
Bright Eyes – Blue Christmas
Jimmy Eat World - Christmas Card
Local H – Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas
Radiohead - Winter Wonderland
Liz Phair – Winter Wonderland
Sufjan Stevens – Hark! The Herald Angels Sing!
Dance Hall Crashers – I Did It For The Toys
Ryan Adams - Hey Parker, It's Christmas
Rilo Kiley - Xmas Cake
Add to my list?

Emmylou Harris: Christmas Time's a-Comin' , Beautiful Star of Bethlehem
Uvula: Xmas Rush
Elvis Presley: Blue Christmas
