We're just a couple weeks out from the holidays now, and if you're like most, you've already hit capacity on hearing the same seasonal songs year after year (though I will give a pass to Wham's "Last Christmas").

Cocteau Twins - Frosty the Snowman

XTC - Thanks For Christmas
Belle & Sebastian - O Little Town of Bethlehem
The Raveonettes - The Christmas Song
The Bird and the Bee - Carol of the Bells
Au Revoir Simone - Fallen Snow
Ramones - Merry Christmas (I Don't Want to Fight Tonight)
Love and Rockets - Holiday on the Moon
