Friday Morning Music Shuffle - Wrong Antidote Mix

Anticipation is building - look for the big unveiling of the Band of the Year around noon CST.

Meanwhile, it's a cold and wet December day, and I'm jumping right into my Winter/Holiday Playlist. I actually took a bunch of songs off from last year because I had anticipated migrating to a new MP3 player with great capacity by this time, but now it appears that isn't going to happen any time soon.  In the meantime, we have a great playlist with more songs waiting to be added.

1.  Nashville Rock icons Jason & the Scorchers tear it up on the Christmas classic, Oh Holy Night.  The song can be found on the 2005 benefit album To: Kate - A Benefit for Kate's Sake.

3.  The late Alex Chilton and his band mates in Big Star do Jesus Christ from the classic record Third/Sister Lovers.

 4. A warm, winter song from Mumford & Sons - Winter Winds.

5.  Hopefully no matter what Holiday you celebrate or don't celebrate you can get behind the sentiment of this song.  It's Peace on Earth by U2 from All That You Can't Leave Behind.

A Very Special Christmas A Very Special Christmas
The 'Very Special Christmas' albums began appearing in the late 1980s. A series of yuletide-themed compilations that featured contemporary rock stars performing beloved Christmas songs (some secular, some not) the albums were recorded and issued to raise money for the Special Olympics. Volume One emerged in 1989, and by the holiday season of 2001-2, four sequels had been produced and issued. Now, the home video release A Very Special Christmas compiles some of the most memorable music videos and live performances of songs from those initial albums, with additional renditions of holiday tunes culled from the 1998 and 2000 Christmas at the White House specials. Performers include Eric Clapton, Sheryl Crow, Wyclef Jean, Tracy Chapman, Jon Bon Jovi and many others. ~ Nathan Southern, Rovi
