The Second Best From Christmas In July Past-Part 10

This marks the end of our little series featuring the second-best tracks from past Christmas in July celebrations. I hope you've enjoyed the 330 some odd tracks that I've been able to highlight with the series. I've always felt that it's a shame to have to narrow down the hundreds of tracks I share during July to just 33 (or so) songs. There's so much more in there that is good, and I feel this was a great way to remind everyone of all the goodies that get shared around here. But before I say goodbye for the month, here's one last collection of great tracks. Give it a listen and see if you don't agree that these are all worth revisiting.

  1. It was certainly a good way to revisit the archives. :) I enjoyed hearing some of this stuff and then wondering why so many good tracks didn't make the best-of collections.

  2. Yeah, the weather, ugh! That't why I'm saving up for the chill of December.
