As I listen to my Christmas cds every December, I am struck by how wonderful some of the newer, not-yet-traditional Christmas songs are. Titles are followed by the songwriters. I so love each of these songs.
1. Happy Christmas (War is Over) - John Lennon/Yoko Ono
2. Do They Know It's Christmas - Bob Geldof/Midge Ure
3. Hands - Jewel (perhaps not "just" a Christmas song, but it is on her Joy: A Holiday Collection, and the words certainly convey the message of the season; "Only kindness matters.")
4. Grown-Up Christmas List - David Foster/Linda Thompson
5. Christmas Mem'ries - Alan & Marilyn Bergman and Don Costa
Listen here:
6. 2000 Miles - Chrissie Hynde
Listen here:
7. Father Christmas - Ray Davies
8. It Must Have Been The Mistletoe - Douglas Konecky & Justin Wilde
Listen here:
9. Merry Christmas, Alabama (Never Far From Home) - Jimmy Buffett
Listen here:
10. Don't Save It All For Christmas Day - Peter Zizzo, Ric Wake, Celine Dion
Listen here:
11. Another Year Has Gone By - Bryan Adams and Eliot Kennedy
