Christmas Countdown - 2017

[brent]

The only time we listen to the radio is in the car. We have a bunch of vinyl records of our favourite Christmas albums plus a good sized digital library we have collected over the years. The issue we have here is that the radio station always plays the same songs over and over again. They never seem to update their play lists.

Hmmmmmmm. Bing. For me. 53

The Hollyridge Strings give Percy Faith a run for the money, too!

What is everyone's favorite Christmas singer of all time?
Favorite orchestra or band?
For me: Bing Crosby (singer) and Percy Faith (orchestra.)

Favorite singer is probably Nat King Cole, but Elvis and Bing are close behind. Oh, and Dean and Frank. Hmmm...hard to pick!

I’m not sure about the band. I’ll have to think!

How is the Sirius channel. ? I dropped it.

Yeah, Nat King Cole is great. His version of The Christmas Song is my all-time favorite version.
50 minutes left!

Yes! We always complain here about the same 25 song rotation. After the first day, we are tired of Christmas radio.

I’m with you to an extent. I listen to my playlists far more than the radio. For some reason, though, there’s just something exciting to me that first day the station flips!

I’ll have to check out Percy Faith Christmas! Thanks for the tip.

I was listening to the 60's on 6 in my car about three weeks ago and the radio host told a caller he wouldn't play Christmas music yet and she should check out the Holiday Favourites station - so I was HURRAY a tip for ME. Last week, I switched to it and found it's mostly the old classics playing. Our local stations usually start slowly with an hour or two of holiday tunes and only switch on Christmas Day.

It's just so terrible. You think they would at least spend the other 11 months of the year researching Christmas music.
