I agree, only 08's playlist lasted for 2 weeks. I must say though, they should use new songs, not the same old all the time.
Actually I like having just the older songs. Its a sort of tradition. :)

I don't know if I'd like the music playing two weeks prior. I'm guess I'm a Grinch, because I just get so tired of all the Christmas hype. If all the T.V. stations didn't play Christmas commercials even in October, I might not get so tired of it. If it ever snows in NO, then I might have a different opinion of it.  ;)

I'll agree. Old songs are awesome.

You and me both. :yes: Honestly a week of Christmas music is enough for me after all the music and hype I hear from other places for as long as two months prior to the holidays. Although I wouldn't call myself a grinch since I'm not against Christmas itself. :P

Personally, I think Christmas music everywhere should be limited at first with only certain songs that describe the approach of the holiday for December 1-17.  By only giving out a few songs, it makes the journey more tolerable.  A lot of people forget that Advent is there for a reason. ;)  December 18-31 is when I feel there should be the full suite of Christmas songs.

That seems to be on the playlist every year.

A better question is what Christmas song hasn't been played every year on the playlist. :P  That song you mentioned plus "We Three Kings" and all the others mentioned above show up every year.

I know I Saw Three Ships and We Three Kings didn't play in 1999 (that year's Christmas playlist was rather boring, with about 10-15 total songs from only 4 artists), but other than that I think it has played every or almost every year since the late 80s or early 90s.

However long the list runs this year, I hope they revisit using some songs that played from 2001 - 2004, particularly from Ottmar Liebert. "We Wish You A Merry Christmas" was a pretty good one. Those were the best Christmas playlists from this past decade/century.
