Comment:

I really do love Christmas music (with the exception of Mariah Carey shit etc.) I love Bing and Nat King Cole and Lena Horne and all the traditional stuff stores use to make you buy more. I'm definitely not against it, and I have been known to put "Christmas in Kilarney" on non- Christmas mixes to impress and test boyfriends.

And yet this year I couldn't shake the mood I've been in for months. This is a mix I made for myself during this time. It's what I've been in the mood to listen to: slow, lonely, thoughtful, quiet, etc.

Belle and Sebastian's "O Come, O Come Emmanuel" could not fit. When I put this mix onto tape it will be included second to last, before that gem of a song "No Vacancy".

I can't stress this enough: Okkervil River's track is the best xmas song ever.

Very nice, I like all the Low songs, and the Mum one, both bands are perfect winter listening.
