Also The Pines' "High Street" which ambushed me and sent me into unexpected blubbering at the height of last summer, and still sends me into more predictable sniffles whenever I hear it.

And I've had a real hankering for Burl Ives "Silver and Gold" the past few days.

I'll second Spector, also quite good is Maria Carrie's Spector pastiche 'All I want for Xmas is You' and I really, really, REALLY like The Cocteau Twins cover of 'Frosty The Snowman'.
Is it nearly christmas time ye

I was listening to Chet Baker's Christmas album from '86. Honestly, his Silent Night made me weepy. Got me thinking about opening a vessel rather than opening presents, but in the nicest way.

While I was standing in line for lunch today, the place I was in was playing a Christmas song about Santa that sounded a lot like an Ariel Pink song. It was weird.

The Moomins - "Silent Night"
http://www.finderskeepersrecords.com/shop/graeme-miller-steve-shill-silent-night/
No idea for how long Finders Keepers are gonna be giving away the mp3 as a download. The 7" is already sold out. Click on 'Tracklist and Soundclips' and the whole thing is there. The B-side, "Partytime" is even better.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cMQiRg0eKFcI'm, dreaming, of a blue Christmas. Oh this confused me for a minute. They're packing a lot of words in but it works!

I heard the original version of I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus for the first time last night. Jesus christ. Is it meant to be cute? I felt like Donald Sutherland getting butchered by the horrific dwarf at the end of Don't Look Now.
