Listening to some good Christmas music tonight as I bask in the moment of the Cats' big win and surf the 'Net. 'Tis the season. Your favorites?

Fifteen minutes later, when the Kansas locker room opened its doors to the media, the Jayhawks were still crying. Literally, bawling. All of them. I've never seen anything like it, and I've seen devastated college locker rooms -- after losses in the Final Four, the national championship game -- ever

I'm enjoying a great Christmas Eve/Christmas Morning time with some good Scotch (scotch, ice with a slight splash of water, of course) and listening to Pandora's Chistmas Jazz Radio while Mrs. Bones sips a margarita and wraps presents. Life is so good, my friends. Merry Christmas, and a great holiday season, to you all.

A family tradition that has become one of my all-time favs is when we all gather around the Christmas tree and sing the first and second verses of Gangster's Paradise.  Really brings the family together.  :love:

I celebrate all Christmas music but would like to confirm the following:

NSYNC - Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays - is very good

I don't know if I've said it before but Kacey Musgraves has the best modern Christmas album imo. But will check out this n*sync thing

There are 2 Christmas songs I legit IRL like and that’s
You’re a mean one mr grinch, and
I want a hippopotamus for Christmas

All others are just varying degrees of tolerated

Also, one reason I enjoy this time of year is if I want to roast any of my coworkers I will just start slinging grinch insults. No greater power move imo than looking your annoying coworker in the eye and with a straight face telling them they’re a three decker toadstool and sauerkraut sandwich      WITH ARSENIC SAUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCE

Fairytale of New York by The Pogues is the one and only Christmas song that matters.  The rest is garbage in comparison.

The older the better for the most part, imo.
If there was a gif of nicname thwarting the attempted-flag-taker and then gesturing him to suck it, followed by motioning for all of Hilton Shelter to boo him louder, it'd be better than that auburn gif.

yeah, I'm pretty confident I've mentioned a lot of these songs in multiple threads. But, you know what, I don't mind doing it again.
