THE CHRISTMAS PLAYLIST

Sunday! Sunday! Sunday!
Hi everyone, I hope you're all having a propa good mid December weekend. Today I haven't done a great deal of importance, other than watch National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation and eat like, 12 biscuits. I appreciate I haven't blogged much in the past fortnight or whatever, but it's been Christmas and I've been steering clear of the obvious festive themed posts because everyone does them. But then it hit me! A Christmas themed Dance Party. Knowing full well I've got my Christmas party, Christmas, mini festivities and New Years coming up, I won't have time to do a December edition, so why not now? And why not the SINGLE BEST FESTIVE PLAYLIST YOUR LITTLE ELF EARS WILL HEAR?! Featuring my all time favourite festive tune What Are You Doing New Years Eve? and a really good Bruce Springsteen number, 'appeh christmis. 

1// Alone on Christmas Day by Phoenix

2// Only You by Kylie Minogue and James Corden

3// Kindle a Fire in Her Heart by Los Campesinos!
4// Merry Christmas, Baby by Bruce Springsteen

5// I've Got Something For You by Best Coast and Wavves

6// Home For Christmas by Kate Bush

7// The Power of Love by Frankie Goes to Hollywood (SUE ME)

8// Don't Shoot Me Santa by The Killers

9// Christmas TV by Slow Club

10// What Are You Doing New Years Eve? by Zooey Deschanel and Joseph Gordon-Levitt

SO YES ITS SO FESTIVE AND FUN AND REALLY COOL. What do we think? Have you got any more tinsel wrapped tunes I've missed?

HAPPY CHRISTMAS CEREAL READERS 

Cheerio,

1// Old Old Fashioned - Frightened Rabbit

2// Swapping Spit - Big Deal

3// Cadillac Girl - Only Real

4// Fade Away - Twin Peaks

5// Say You'll Be There - MØ

Music is great right? This selection is particularly cool because it's a lot of what I really love (Danish electro covers of the Spice Girls, hell yes). ITS A GOOD MONTH FOR MUSIC THANKS SPOTIFY.

Heard anything cool recently?

Cheerio,
