A playlist twist for the festive season

Christmas is only days away now, and building your holiday playlist can sometimes be a last-minute job; one often forgotten until guests start arriving at your door for the festivities.

Check out these five songs that will have you “singing loud for all to hear” these Christmas holidays.

1. Just Another Christmas Song - Sharon Jones & The Dap-Kings

For every Christmas that goes by, it can certainly feel like there are a hundred new songs added to the holiday radio rotation. To honour the endless amount of tunes that can get you into the holiday spirit, check out Just Another Christmas Song.

Listen here.

2. I Got Your Christmas Right Here - Aloe Blacc

This is the type of track you can imagine playing in the background as you catch up with family and friends during the holiday season. It’s feel-good and catchy; the best duo for a memorable Christmas tune.

Listen here.

3. Everybody Loves Christmas - Eddie Money & Ronnie Spector

One of the greatest parts of Christmas is falling back in love with the songs you set aside for the majority of the year. Everybody Loves Christmas sticks to the familiar sounds of the holidays that we all know and love, and is definitely worth adding to the playlist line-up in time for the 25th.

Listen here.

4. What Are You Doing New Year’s Eve? - Harry Connick, Jr.

Don’t be fooled by the name of the title, as this Harry Connick, Jr. hit is certainly a Christmas song. Plus, it would be silly not to include something Michael Bublé-esque on this list.

Listen here.

5. Merry, Merry Christmas - New Kids on the Block

You’ll recognise the iconic boy band, but have you heard any of their Christmas tracks? While the Merry, Merry Christmas album could easily stay on repeat, the song title that adorns the same name is up there as one of the best.
