Okay, boys and girls. It's the most wonderful time of the year, and therefore time to create the Ultimate Christmas Music Playlist. I'm a HUGE fan of Christmas music, and begin playing it on Black Friday (unlike the retailers, I don't believe that the Christmas season starts before Halloween.

One holiday at a time for me, thank you very much.

) and usually by the time New Year's Day arrives, I'm sick of it! But, until then, I'm spinning the holiday hits almost 24/7.
I have a ton of this stuff, but I'm always open to suggestions. There's a lot out there, and not all of it is good, unfortunately. I have more than a few albums that only have a song or two that are listenable, but that's why I make a playlist!
So, the assignment is simple, my little elves: Give me a list of ten or so of your yuletide favorites. Again, not looking for whole albums here, just the best songs. I don't care about the artist or genre - this time of year I'm listening to everything from Bing Crosby to Mariah Carey to Straight No Chaser to Bruce Springsteen to Jon Anderson to Josh Groban to Garth Brooks.
For those wondering why this is "Volume 3," check out the previous two playlists and feel free to add your suggestions to those lists as well:
The Playlist Project, Volume 1: Acoustic Rock The Playlist Project, Volume 2: Essential Jazz Make me a list, and I'll check it twice. I don't care if the songs are naughty or nice. Bails just wants your best holiday sounds.
