In de afgelopen weken tuimelde bijna de voltallige Nederlandse (muziek)pers over elkaar heen om in superlatieven te spreken over wat we hier bij Christmas A Go Go! stiekem al jarenlang weten: Loes en Renée Wijnhoven delen gewoon de allerlekkerste Christmas treats uit.ĭe tweeling met de charmante Brabantse tongval weet muzikaal, maar zeker ook tekstueel precies de juiste Kerstsnaar te raken. (This concert review of Clean Pete's Christmas show goes in Dutch, sorry folks.) Holland's own A Balladeer, singing beautifully how he hates Christmas: Very nice list from TapeMixTape, including this great stop-motion clip by Nat Jay:Īnd this would be on my own Top 20 list. Martin/Stubby came up with A LOT of great tracks, like this one from 2011:Ī very tender song by Chely Wright, from an EP I seem to have missed in 2018 (thanks Stuart, loved that David Mead song too): Thanks David, for reminding us all about this glorious track by The Heathen & the Holly:

Thanks to Cor, I became familiair with this track by Australian phenomenon Kate Miller-Heidke (yep, this Kate): This track is about the song Silent Night, and what it does to a preacher and a performer. Swedish songstress Annika Norlin is part of Hello Saferide, and thanks to Wouter and George I now know she recorded an album this year, with Jens Lekman. Larry unearthed this gem of a French rockin' tune by Sugar et Tiger, a French band that now seems defunct.

It's funny, it's catchy and I forgot all about this album the both of them made in 2012 (tho I posted a song from it): They're all from 2010-2019, suggested by readers of this blog.įirst up, this song (suggested by David and Dan) by Jonathan Coulton & John Roderick (of The Long Winters), about that uncle that probably everybody has, and don't want to invite to Christmas dinnner. Let's settle for this great song then.Īnyhoo, to make the most of out all your submissions, I decided to post ten submissions that I either forgot all about, hadn't heard of, or/and were just too darn good to pass.

EDIT: Although, as Stubby has just mentioned in the comments, Sufjan's from 2003 so cannot be named in this list. The song that got the most mentions was 'That Was The Worst Christmas Ever!' by Sufjan Stevens, followed by 'My & My Baby (Spend Christmas With Me)' by The Faithettes. I received about 15 lists and scattered songs so much different tracks, it's nearly impossible to make a solid ranking. A while back, I asked via social media and this blog, for your list of the 20 bestest Christmas songs of the decade.
