25-Some Things For Xmas

From the Winter tracks yesterday, we move on to a day filled with songs about Xmas. I don't have a strong opinion on the use of Xmas as a shortcut for Christmas, but some people sure do. I was always told that the X was a reference to the early Christmas using the Greek Chi character to represent Christ, but that may just be a tale I was told. I'm sure the truth is out there, but I'm too lazy to open a Google window and ask. Not all the tracks today have Xmas in the title, but it's a good chunk of them. I don't think any of these tracks refer to the X in Xmas or lament it's use, I think I put those few tracks elsewhere that we haven't seen yet. I should have put them here now that I'm thinking about it but it's too late to change now. Christmas is in a few days and I really need to do some shopping. Leave me a comment and let me know your favorite track here. Enjoy!
