Leverage Xmas
Parker / Hardison - Only Thing I Ever Get For Christmas
Fringe - Running Back To You
More geeky Christmas - I recently rewatched the first season of Fringe. It's still awesome although I'm understanding it better now that I know what's going on. ;-)

Alien for Christmas!
Dr. Who vid to I Want an Alien for Christmas - interestingly I saw a reference to this song in comments just yesterday

My Dad's a Pogo fan
All the lyrics I've been able to find for Pogo's Deck Us All With Boston Charlie. We used to sing it at my women's group each year for our Yule celebration. Not all of the verses scan well so I placed them next to the original lyrics to help us sing the song.
I've found different versions on the web:
This guy explains the origin of the song.
This one sings all the verses I'm aware of and manages to fit them into the musical line correctly, something my friends and I never managed without a few tries.
Strange jazzy version

Merry Christmas Everyone
I discovered this holiday classic - I have online friends who wax nostalgic over it - last year when I was creating a list of geeky holiday vids. There is an official vid but I like seeing the Buffy gang.
Lady Gaga - Joseph Gordon-Levitt Baby It's Cold Outside
Baby It's Cold Outside - I like the role reversal from how it's usually presented.
Annie Lennox again
because her Christmas Cornucopia has that many amazing songs: God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen
Miriam
No banners were unfurled when God stepped into the word held in the arms of a little girl named Miriam.
Scenes from The Nativity Story combined with Pierce Pettis’ song Miriam.

Santa make him hurry, tell him he can take the freeway down
While I was visiting Dad for Thanksgiving his tenant, who is big into holiday decorating, removed the fall / Halloween / Thanksgiving decorations and replaced them with Christmas decorations. And of course she had Christmas tunes going. Dad said he’d have to tell her about this song since it’s his favorite.
Oboes play; set bagpipes sounding
I had planned to post my advent of music in groups of about four days each, but ![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
beer_good_foamy's choice to post them day-by-day has convinced me to do the same. However, I started two days back - I had that many songs - so my first day will have three songs. And as I'm likely to find songs I like and add them to the list, this probably won't be the only multiple song day.
29 Nov:
I won't have a lot to say about each song. I'm starting with Sarah McLachlan's Wintersong because it's quietly reflective and also lovely.

Disco Apocalypse
While I can't argue with Once More, With Feeling for the title of the musical episode, there is a song called Disco Apocalypse. Come on, how much more awesome would it have been to call it Disco Apocalypse?
