For a number of people out there, the mere idea of Christmas music triggers a gag reflex. I’ll be the first to admit that there’s a fair share of horrifically abominable holiday music assaulting us on a yearly basis, but for every mind numbing ‘Last Christmas, as sung by Alvin and the Chipmunks’ (if only I were kidding), there exists a wonderful seasonal gem. So pretend like it actually feels wintery outside, cozy on up to your warm fireplace (or, you know, TV yule log), and let yourself be serenaded by some Christmas tunes that I guarantee won’t bring out your inner Scrooge.
