I really hope you enjoyed this video! Around this time of the year, I always feel like I’m just hearing the same 10 songs over and over again. So, with this video I wanted to share some lesser known Christmas songs. Everything from Kanye to Sufjan. Enjoy.

    Mariah Carey didn't really want to release her Merry Christmas album that early period in her career. I got your point but there's just something with Mariah that sets her apart from other musicians. She also wrote and produced most of her biggest hits including her Christmas classic.

    I love Christmas Time. We hear it a bit more often in the UK, I think. Merry Xmas Everybody by Slade is completely crazy and falls into a similar place.

    Once I googled Kanye West Christmas song as a joke and Christmas in Harlem popped up. I don’t think anything will compare to the mix of emotions I felt in that moment.

    Yeah… I'm late to the Christmas party… whatever:
    Phoebe Bridgers – Christmas song… yes… what a generic title but what a good and raw song

    Phoebe Bridgers – Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas is a different version of the classic that is in no way generic but actually plays on the dark and sad side of this song

    Hurts – All I want for Christmas is New Years Day

    Future Islands – Last Christmas a Wham cover that one can actually digest

    my favourite artists for non cover christmas songs are definetly Pomplamoose, The guy who wrote still alive for Portal (i forget his name), and Lemon Demon, and of course sufjan stevens, in terms of bands that have done covers i really like The Oh Hellos, Pomplamoose (again), and Peach Pit

    Hey… So I feel like a lot of your subscribers, uses your channel to discover new artists or songs. And I think that a lot of us listens to the same type of music (wouldn’t say genre, cause’ you definitely cover more than one). So I think it would be really cool, if you made a video about your “your top songs 2018”-playlist, or maybe made one yourself, if you don’t use Spotify…?
    Keep up the brilliant work, and happy Holidays

    (Also, please excuse the grammar… I’m from Denmark, and we doesn’t have the same grammatical rules)

    Just binge watched 1/3 of your content and I love it. I was just wondering if you’ve ever listened to easy life, they’ve got a song on fifa 19 and I think you’d love them. Keep up the great videos
