“Candy Cane Lane”
It might be two years since Sia released her first holiday-themed album, but her colorful, upbeat tribute to the season is a great choice to accompany this year’s Christmas travels. “Candy Cane Lane” is a good place to start. Though, you might also want to add “Puppies Are Forever” and “Sunshine” to your mix for even more tongue-in-cheek, feel-good vibes.
“Like It’s Christmas”
If the Jonas Brothers rank high on your “guilty pleasures” list, then make sure to add this new release to your playlist. A catchy melody, sleigh bells, and hand-clapping, are sure to have you singing along and bobbing your head as you run Christmas errands around town.
“Christmas All Over Again”
Puss N Boots’ “Christmas All Over Again” is just the right jam if you’re alone for the holiday. Norah Jones enlists the help of Sasha Dobson and Catherine Popper to craft this folky, bluesy song. It will make you want to don a pair of Western boots and pour a glass of bourbon to enjoy by the Christmas tree when you get home from the day’s errand-running and/or commuting.
“Looks Like a Cold, Cold Winter”
This vintage-style song from Ingrid Michaelson harkens back to Christmases past. Turn up the volume and absorb the soundwaves to warm your spirit with this cozy tune. “All I Want for Christmas is You” is another great one to add to your playlist if you’re craving a jazzy duet and appreciate the soulful voice of Leslie Odom Jr.
“Snowed In”
Conor Matthews’ original “Snowed In” is the perfect serenade for winter driving. Whether the weather is snowy or not, this song will mentally transport you to a cabin in the woods where you’ll feel like you’re relaxing beside the fireplace while watching flurries through a nearby window.
