Christmas music

I love Christmas music, but mostly the classical/instrumental stuff. Most of what's on the radio tries to blend popular artists with classic Christmas tunes, and it just doesn't work for me.
I like the classics, Dean Martin, Nat King Cole, Sinatra, etc singing traditional versions.
I also love the Nutcracker Suite. I try to listen to it every year, at least a few times, straight through. But then again, I like classical music anyways. We also have some good Jazz Christmas albums.
I love the funny stuff too, but some of it definitely tries too hard to be funny. The original South Park Christmas Album is quite good.
Finally, I don't expect anyone else to like it. As with all my music, it's headphones only at work, and the wife generally likes the same things I do, so car rides and home is easy.

Only under extreme duress. I worked a few years in retail back in the stone age and any xmas spirit was ground into submission.

We're going to listen to Christmas tonight. Rick is thrilled.
The granddaughter is in a show at school. Gotta pay the "grandparent dues" from time to time.
Better than the dance recital we have to sit through in June.

Two words:

The kids and teachers put a lot of time and effort into this show, and did a great job.
Seeing the granddaughter up on stage smiling and singing, and having a good time made the trip worthwhile.
