Liz and I made a pact last year that carried over to this year - no Christmas music until Thanksgiving.See, I'm in noooooo ways a religious fellow. But I have a ridiculous affinity for Christmas music.
Granted, I'm not really into the Away In a Manger or Mary's Boy Child variety. Those get a little pointed for me.
I'm more into Dean Martin's Christmas With Dino or Bing Crosby & The Andrews Sisters' Mele Kalikimaka (Hawaiian Christmas).
Of course I also like the middle of the century Elvis' Santa Bring My Baby Back (To Me) and The Monkees' Riu Chiu up to the present day up to the present day, say Goldfinger's White Christmas or The OC's Chrismukkah Mix.
So not long now, little Smurfs. Only fourteen days until the iTunes is blasting Santa songs in our house ...
