Mannheim Steamroller - Yea or Nay?
Me?
The first week or so, it's nice, but after that, they get on my nerves (for some reason).

YESSSS!I know it's a moldy oldy, but the Charlie Brown Christmas music gets a lifetime pass for me.
Working retail cured me permanently of enjoying any of the standard holiday music.
I can deal with the Hippo, Grandma, and even the Chipmunks, but the one that makes me wanna strangle somebody is...
Dominick the Donkey -
Yea for Mannheim and Trans-Siberian Orchestra.
The same old Christmas music you hear every year in fifty different versions, no thanks. I'm full. But I will always appreciate
1) New songs
2) Great instrumentals
and
3) Creative, uncommon, or funny songs.
From I Want A Hippopotamus For Christmas and 12 Daze of Christmas to Christmas Wrapping and Walking Round In Women's Underwear, these songs are the ones that put me in a holiday spirit. The rest, well, maybe one or two get a pass, but only a few.
Here's the Christmas playlist.I'm feeling Christmas-y this year, for some reason... not sure why, but I'll take it!
I keep Mannheim's original Silent Night, and TSO's Mad Russian's Christmas, on my Christmas playlist... but that's about all I listen to from them regularly. I can't keep the local Christmas radio station on for more than 10 minutes at a stretch because they play way too many songs I loathe.
I need to replicate my Christmas and Solstice playlists on Youtube... if I do I'll post them here.
