I love Christmas. I mean, I really fucking love it. I have a lot of friends who are quite jaded about it and just mumble "it's fine, you don't need to get me anything", when I ask what presents they want. But not so for me. I'm not religious, so Jesus et al have nothing to do with it for me. It's the atmosphere. I like the food, the television, the absence of school, THE PRESENTS, the fact that my birthday comes ten days after. Obviously, to keep this relevant to the blog, I love the music. Why I love Christmas music, I couldn't possibly tell you because I don't know myself. But whatever it is, you need a Christmas playlist, and I am making you one, from songs both classic and new.

All Time Low - Merry Christmas, Kiss My Ass
