The Christmas Playlist.

SO, we meet again.

What is it with me and capitalizing letters?! I just don't get it.

Heyya random person. Howsabout me and yea get random and crazy togetha?
YEAAAHNO, I'm sober.

Izz 2:25 am and I have this unignorable urge to put up my Christmas playlist. To put light to your musical appetites this Yuletide season.

I love you that much soooo let's get on with it!

First, let me greet you with this video I made:
Yeah, I did this with my brothers Nick and Kevin. Nick gets a lot of female attention. And I am highly jealous and annoyed so I had to embarrass him in this video, like I always do.

Okay, I'm kidding. Didn't mean to pick on Joe. It's just that, he's my favorite (Okay, that may be an understatement) and I'm kinda obsessing on his 16 year old self.

And since I really don't know where to start, let's just start with The Jonas Brothers.

1. I Want A Hippopotamus For Christmas- Jonas Brothers version
So funny, Garbo is at the background. And he's got this whole blond thing going on.
What do you get for covering this kind of song? You get a real live hippo delivered on your doorstep. That's what happened to them. I'm quoting Joseph: "Silly fans!" but not in a cute way.

The cover is surprisingly adorable! They kinda amped up some of the lyrics which I greatly appreciate :))

I immensely enjoy singing along to this. HAHA. Kinda rad.

Sorry 'bout this video. A lot of flailing arms and female hysteria.

2. The Little Drummer Boy- Sean Quigley
OHMY. I cannot tell you right now how much I adore Sean Quigley at this very moment. I am totally in love with him. This video is so special to people of Winnipeg. I even told my momma to go to Winterpeg to find this guy and tell him I adore him! HAHA.

Here, watch this little back story:

3. I Wanna Be Your Christmas- Andrew Allen
Another one of my favorite Canadians! Trust Andrew to give us feel-good and cheesy love songs! I totally love him. He's always so smiley and his songs always have that happy vibe. When I hear his songs, I hear the smile on his voice. YES, I just know he's smiling while singing. Such a good and positive man. And all of that is translated and reflected in his songs.

4. Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas- EVERY FREAKIN' VERSION I KNOW

Sorry! It's just that ever since I heard Demi's version of this, it has been my favorite Christmas song. So please, bear with all the HYAMLC.

Demi Lovato


Joe Brooks


Relient K


Michael Buble (Okay, mother)


5. It's Not Christmas Without You- Katharine McPhee
Terribly sweet! We just got to love Katharine. She's a wonderful singer. I get the creeps whenever she says that line where she's saying "our last December" or something like that. I like that part.

6. It's Not Christmas Without Snow- Details Details
I've only known Seth for a short while. He's so cute. I got to know him through, whatshername, Taylor. Woodford. Yeah, THAT girl. From Nashville.

Anyway, he's also into that techno stuff. Much like Owl City in the good ole days. LOL
Love Seth, he dances real good.

7. I Hate Christmas Parties-Relient K
There is a lot of Relient K going on in this playlist. Because they have this whole Christmas album going on and one just cannot help but love it. Sorry.
Anyway, I hope I didn't make your Christmas sad. HAHA.

8. The First Noel- Tobymac feat. Owl City
It's TOBYMAC! Need I say more? Well, I do have something more: MY MAN ADAM YOUNG!
Two awesomeness in one song. What more can we ask for huh?

9. The Brightest Thing- Austin Nivarel
OH OH OH OH! Another one of my current crushes. I got to know Austin through Twitter. He's one of the awesome people who follow me. Listened to his PureVolume account and got some free downloads there. This was one of the tracks. The song is sooooo cute right??! And Austin's voice is just to die for. Kinda lazy and sweet and all things awesome.

10. I'm Gettin' Nuttin' For Christmas- Relient K
WHHUUUT! Look at Matt on that thumbnail! :P Trust Relient K to be crazy at all times. I just flip out whenever Matt does silly things to his voice like that.

11. Christmas This Year- Tobymac feat. Leigh Nash
Tobymac is back! This time with Leigh. Awesome song!

12. Merry Christmas, Here's To Many More- Relient K
At the end of the day, Relient K could always make me jerk a tear. Here and there. Told you there would be a lot of Relient K.

13. Grown Up Christmas List- Michael Buble
SIGH. As you know, my mother adores this man. Yes, I can tolerate my mother crushing on a married man. Because, well, I have a crush on him too. So, yeah, I just felt entitled to put a Buble Christmas song that is guaranteed to sing you to sleep.

14. Baby It's Cold Outside
OH, HAIL THE KISS. The kiss that sent Cammy away. Lindsay, you'll pay for that. Okay, okay, it's not her fault Cameron quit and she said it ain't her idea to kiss him so I'll let it go.

Let's just listen to this instead
There. No kissing whatsoever. OKAY! So, it's Glee! They have the best version for me, so there. WHAT?! It's freaking Darren Criss! You must understand my dilemma. Such a wonderful, playful song. I imagine singing it with Cameron and then-NO! I wake up. HAHA.

15. I Celebrate The Day- Relient K
Okay you must now be so sick of Relient K but this is the most precious one. :)) Totally in love with this.

16. The Christmas Song- Flyleaf
Totally shocked to know that Flyleaf had a song like this. Now, I am smitten. Love this song :))

17. The Christmas Song- Owl City
Take me back to the days when me and Adam were in love. OH STOP. This is the first Christmas song that I totally loved. Soooo cute.

18. Wonderful Christmas Time-Demi Lovato
Demi's version is so happy and lively. Unlike Paul McCartney's. SIGH. This one is prettier.

19. It's A Wonderful Life- Brookline Drive

Hey, hey. It's Brookline Drive bringing us awesome holiday music. I so totally love them. And this cool song!

20. Merry Swiftmas- Evan Taubenfeld

OKAY, I MAY HAVE SAVED THE BEST FOR LAST.

HAHA! It's just hilarious. I heard this when I was in junior year of high school. I had this friend who was a real TSwizzle fan. EXTREME. And she had this on her MP3 player. Other than it's title, what made me listen to it was the name of the artist. TAUBENFELD. As you may (or may not) know, I had this super crush on Demi's guitarist and his name was Drew Taubenfeld. I don't remember exactly how I found out but they turned out to be brothers. BROTHERS! Around that time, I also found out that Drew won't be making it to one leg of Demi Lovato's tour because he was going to join Evan on HIS tour. Who would've thought? Recently, I saw this super long video, a live chat, of Evan with his fans. And Drew was a special guest. The first time I saw them together. And Evan said that Drew was engaged to Demi Lovato! He goes like this "Drew...Drew is not single" Drew's just smiling, the usual. "He's actually engaged.." and Drew was going "Oh, yeah" and nodding off absently and then "..to Demi Lovato." and as soon as he heard that he shut his eyes and went "OHGOD." and then he was smiling and saying ohgod even louder. It was a joke of course, meant to unnerve Drew. Which was quite effective really, he was in shambles, LOLled right across the couch. The guy next to him said "I'M engaged to Miley Cyrus" like he's saying he's got it worse.

There's so many things I keep discovering about Evan. I also found out through this video that he is (or was, I dunno) best friends with a certain Avril Lavigne. Go follow the comment thread on the video. The fans are shipping the two of them. It's kind of a tragic love story really. Just browse the internet, or just YouTube for that matter and you'd be able to draw some conclusions. They have been really sweet during the early set of Avril's career. Evan had appearances in a lot of Avril's music video and they have a song together. They have worked alongside each other, writing songs and going on tour. But nothing has come out of it.

HAHA! Tsismosa! This was meant to be a Christmas playlist not a gossip post.

Anyway, this song just makes me smile! It's so hilarious.


YYYEYYY!

It is 5:20 am and I am done!

I hope you had fun listening to these songs because they mean a whole lot to me. I hope you treasure them as much as I do too. I love you! Til next time! :)))))))))
