Fave song of the album:

I like songs, I've never been a huge "album" fan, especially true since we switched to digital music.  So here are a couple of songs I like.

I don't think I'd listen to a Christmas album. At Christmas I'm generally listening to very much non Christmassy songs as since Halloween I've heard more than enough Christmas songs.

 

Yes, that's why I don't listen to Christmas music at all until two weeks before Christmas.  Even US Thanksgiving (fourth Thursday in November) is too soon for me.

The early kick-off for Christmas was in October here in Norway. When December comes, we are already in a state of full Yuletide attrition, trying to hold on until the cavalry arrives around the 27th or 28th.
This year, I went for a few days to a Christmas market in continental Europe. Krakow, to be more specific. It is a huge one on the old medieval market square. I think I managed to spend 50 Zloty, the equivalent of 12-13 Euros on a kielbasa.
I needed a break from the christmassing and catholicising, so we went and found Oscar Schindler's old factory and walked through the old Jewish quarter. Very little remains after the uprising in 1943-44.

What I did like, was the Poles caroling. Not that I understand any Polish, but they were festive. Maybe overdoing it a bit.

Nowadays, stores over here begin stocking Christmas decor as early as September, which drives me NUTS.

When I was a kid the lightning, Christmas markets, etc... all opened two weeks before Christmas (tradition marked December 13th - the feast of Saint Lucy - as the kickoff to Christmas holidays, since it coincided with the solstice in the Julian calendar), but nowadays it's all been pushed to late November.

Check out the Sailor Moon Christmas album if you are sick of the same ole thing.
