As posted on my blog: It's not a straightforward holiday mix, but I tried to package a celebratory essence into this mix with songs that range from party-starters to contemplative. There are four songs that are most relevant to Christmas: the new Julian Casablancas cover "I Wish It Was Christmas Today", which I talked about in this post, the sewage-washed "Happy Holidays, You Bastard" song by Blink 182, Fucked Up feat. almost every hip artist out there "Do They Know It's Christmas?", and my personal favorite Rob Halford of Judas Priest "We Three Kings" off his Christmas album (yes, he has a Christmas album) Winter Songs.
The track listing:
1. Julian Casablancas "I Wish It Was Christmas Today"
2. Andrew W.K. "Long Live the Party" from The Wolf
3. Blink 182 "Happy Holidays, You Bastard from Take off Your Pants and Jacket
