Returning once again for our 11th season is Steve's 25 Days of Christmas Music, a tradition we share via the TannerWorld Junction discussion forums, SteveandAmySly.com, Facebook, and Twitter.
For those who are just joining us, here's what Steve's 25 Days of Christmas Music is all about. Starting December 1 through December 25, I'll be posting new music each day that you can download, no strings attached. It's all FREE, FREE, FREE! Songs will be in MP3 format — so you can listen via any media player or your iPod. It's just like an audio advent calendar, except that you won't have to fight with your dumb sister over who gets to open the next little door!
Theme – "Navidaddy"
To be honest, I wasn't really planning on having a 25 Days event this year. You see, my December is going to be pretty hectic, with our first child due on December 21. Who has the time to pick Christmas music? However, the stupid part of my brain won out and here are 25 more songs for 2011.
That said, given our family events this month, I selected a Steve's 25 Days of Christmas Music that would best tie into the life changes that Amy and I are about to experience.
Thus, I present to you… Navidaddy! Each day until Christmas I'll be featuring songs that reference babies and children in the song titles. When I used this as my criteria for music, I came up with a pretty goofy list of songs, some of which I've never actually heard before. So if you are in the mood for something quite different this holiday season, then you are in the right place, because this year's collection is quite… odd. Which probably reflects the personality of my future son as well, but we're still waiting to see if that's true!
