The Ultimate Holiday Country Music Playlist
I love the holidays, and nothing gets me in the festive spirit quite like some great country music.
Getting Into the Holiday Spirit
It’s that time of year again when the streets are filled with the hustle and bustle of the holiday season. People are frantically scouring the mall for the perfect gifts for their loved ones, and thousands of people will take planes, trains, and automobiles to visit family and friends. Kids will be writing letters to Old Saint Nick and worrying about whether or not they have been good enough this year to get that toy they really want.
Amongst all this chaos and merriment will be a constant stream of holiday music flowing out of mall loud speakers, car radios, and your neighbors’ mouths.
