The Only Christmas Music Playlist You'll Need This Year
BY VIKTOR HANACEK

Thanksgiving is officially over and you know what that means?! It’s finally time to break out the Christmas carols and NOT feel like a total jerk. As my friends would tell you, I may be cynical, but I'm not a total scrooge. Even I have an affinity for Christmas time. It's communal, it brings some warmth to an otherwise cold month and I welcome any opportunity to toast and feast. Here are my go-to, sure to put me in the spirit, and make me feel a bit more jolly songs:

Run Rudolph Run - Chuck Berry

All I Want for Christmas Is You - Mariah Carey

White Christmas - Otis Redding

The Christmas Sog - Nat King Cole

Santa Baby - Eartha Kitt

Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas - Sam Smith

Merry Christmas, Baby - Christina Aguilera

A Holly Jolly Christmas - Burl Ives

Santa Claus Is Coming To Town - The Jackson 5

Silent Night - Damien Rice

Frosty the Snowman - Ella Fitzgerald

Hark! The Herald Angles Sing - Mahalia Jackson

Jingle Bells - Diana Krall

Oh Holy Night - The Sweeplings

White Winter Hymnal - Fleet Foxes

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.
