Christmas music, day two

One day in and I’ve already had some great submissions to the show. Still time left to get your favorites sent in. The more the merrier.

Today’s track comes courtesy of my Kansas City dotcomrade Eric Hurst (web | twitter). The man knows his way around some Rails code and has recently launched himself into the freelance world, sign him up quick before his schedule fills.

Note: As mentioned yesterday, I will be sharing tunes through other methods. There’s a strong possibility that my Twitter followers will get a separate track today. Follow or at least check in.

Christmas tunes

Editor’s note: I did this on another one of my sites last year and it was pretty popular so I thought I’d give it a go here.

I have a decent collection of Christmas music. It’s not huge but I have accumulated some quality tracks here and there over time. Of course I dig the classics by Elvis, Sinatra, Crosby and Ives; but a majority of these will probably be a little more contemporary with names like: Jason Mraz, Damien Rice & Coldplay.

Not sure if I’ll remember/have time to do a song-a-day post but I will try and be as consistent as possible with it.

Tip: I may offer the songs in a variety of different ways – normal blog post, Twitter-only link and/or an RSS-only link might happen as well. I would recommend you subscribe to the RSS feed as well as follow me on Twitter to not miss a single track.

If you have one you think might fit in well with the series, send me a note about it.

Let the games begin.

Jason Mraz – Winter Wonderland
