So, what Christmas songs or Holiday tunes go best with some Crown Royal Reserve and really good vegetable matter?
We have like 60 Holiday albums with all kinds of bands/artists represented, so what would you advise?
(Note: The veggies are optional.)

I am sick to death of listening to the same old songs they play on the radio here in Ireland. There are 2 songs you will hear every day (10 times a day).
Fairy Tale of New York
So This Is Christmas (War Is Over)
Both excellent songs but once a week is enough. December is the month I turn the radio off or I will go completely nuts.

These are cheesy but they come from one of my favorite Christmas movies, Love Actually, so I love them!
