45-It's Christmas Time

Well, this is where it all ends, sort of. 45 days of 45 songs from 45 RPM records. That sort of wraps it up nicely, don't you think? I say 'sort of' because I have a few bonus things to share after this, but this is the formal end of the line. There's no real theme to all the songs here, but there is a theme that ties this to a previous share here this season. I want to see if anyone figures it out because you have to pay really close attention to what's gone on all season long. If no one figures it out in a week or so, I'll post the answer in the comments and declare myself pretty smart for making a puzzle so fiendishly complicated no one could figure it out. Either that or something so stupid that no one cared. Either way, we'll see what happens. If you're bailing out after this, I hope you had a great season, but I hope you won't. I think the bonus stuff is worth your time and it won't take too much time to get it all out there. Enjoy the tracks today!
