December Daily 12.07.10 - Christmas Playlist

Noah and I spend a ton of time in the car.  So, the radio is turned to something Noah's wants to hear 99% of the time.  He is very quick to play DJ with a "no... not this one," when he wants me to change the song, and I can seriously say that I am pretty sure he could "name that tune in one note."  Here is what we are playing on repeat this holiday season.

1. Carol of the Bells from Holiday Spirits: Straight No Chaser - I have a couple of their CDs, but Noah has four favorite songs that we skip ahead to every time the playlist is on.  This one just happens to be the one we listened to the entire way home today. Every time it ends, Noah says, "Want ding dong again."

2. The 12 Days of Christmas from Holiday Spirits: Straight No Chaser

3. Santa Claus is Coming to Town from Holiday Spirits: Straight No Chaser

4. Jingle Bell Rock from Holiday Spirits: Straight No Chaser

5. Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer from Joy - A Holiday Collection: Jewel

6. Jingle Bells from Glee: The Christmas Album - One day I will have to do a list of all the songs Noah likes from the Glee Soundtracks Volumes 1-4.  It is a large number, and they are quite varied.  Anywhere from Give Up the Funk to Defying Gravity.  Can I just say I love this kid and his love of music?!?

7. Deck the Halls from Disney Holiday Magic 2009: Mickey Mouse and Friends

8. The Cat in the Hat read by Kelsey Grammer - Technically, not a Christmas song, but it would make a great Christmas gift, and we have been listening to it on repeat, so it makes the list.  It comes with a paperback copy of the book and Kelsey Grammer does such a great job reading it.  Noah really loves it.  They also have other books like Horton and Green Eggs and Ham with other celebrities reading them.  Really cute gift idea.
