Ok, so the plan for the GC radio for hte holidays was to have on some days, the radio going with the Sailor Moon christmas albums and also some other Holiday/Christmas music thrown in and maybe some random non-Christmas Sailor Moon songs just to break it up. Now I've got like pretty mcuh all the Sailor Moon music ever thanks to SailorMusic.net but I am lacking in Holiday/Christmas music. I have like 2 albums and some random songs. And its Christmas trance music (which is amazing btw). lol

Anyway, if there are any songs you'd like please list them here and I'll try to get them. ^_^ I would try to avoid anything really religious and/or somber sounding. I think just some fun upbeat music would be good.

I'd love to hear Trans-Siberian Orchestra on the Playlist! <3

Also, We Three Kings by Kamelot.

And... My Only Wish (This Year) by Britney Spears.

uhm...

Maybe some Christmas "gotta listens" like..

Simply having a wonderful Christmas time- Paul McCartney
Last Christmas- George Micheal
All I want for Christmas- Mariah Carey

and Disney Christmas songs tend to be not too somber or religious songs...like the soundtracks from Beauty and The Beast the enchanted Christmas or Mickey's once upon a Christmas.

Just some general suggestions

YES YES YES you must play Trans-Siberian Orchestra!! Their version of Carol of the Bells IS EPIC!!

The soundtrack from Charlie Brown's Christmas.

I'm sad you won't place some religious songs I really love Hark! the Herald Angles Sing, Silent Night, Oh Holy Night (THIS SONG IS SO AMAZING).

Other songs:
Winter Wonderland
Carol of the Bells
Sleigh Ride
It's Beginning to look like Christmas- Bring Crosby (any Christmas music from him.)

If you play Santa Baby or All I want for Christmas is a Hippopotamus I will kill you!!! >.<

I don't mind playing religious music, but I know we were trying to keep it as secular as possible for the holiday stuff. If anything, I wouldn't mind playing traditional music of other holidays going on right now.

I know. It's hard to keep things secular because December is about Christmas. I know there's other holidays, but the stores really focus on Christmas despite their attempt at political correctness. XD

You could use instrumental versions on the religious songs...it's still religious, but not as..."blunt".

Feliz Navidad

I can understand possibly not wanting to seem 'religious' - but this IS Christmas and songs like O Holy Night are just as apart of the season as Here Comes Santa Claus. They hold that warmth within them that is very much apart of the Christmas Tradition. So I really do feel that all aspects of the Christmas Season should be embraced, not just half of it.


And ohmygosh, you guys like the Trans Siberian Orchestra?!? I ADORE THEM! Best Christmas songs. And do you know, I got to see them live!!!!! Oh my gosh, I thought my heart was going to explode. Gah, I'm getting kind of off-topic here.

Ooh, can you also play You're A Mean One, Mr Grinch? That song is so fabulous. I can supply some myself as I have a bunch of them on my computer. Hee.

You're Mean One Mr. Grinch! FTW!!!

Rocking around the christmas tree is a fun Christmas song!

Oh my gosh, now I have to go listen to my stash. Christmas is coming early this year! XD

I totally wanted to add in the Grinch song. Its like you HAVE too. I just didn't want anything too slow and boring either. I mean, the Sailor Moon albums has Silent Night and stuff, so I'm not HUGELY worried about it. I just wanted more happy upbeat songs. ^^

I don't like the idea of more religious songs - maybe staple ones, I can understand.. but specific ones.. make me a little uncomfortable. I hate to hear them when shopping and stuff =X but there's a mute button for a reason, amiright?

I'm all on board with the Grinch and songs like it ^^ I'd like some pop holiday songs thrown in there as well.

Don't let Yami pressure you Brit. Remember when I sent you the hippopotamus song and you were for it? Yeah. And do the Santa Baby song too! ;D

I feel like depending on the song, it's okay. There's soft rock-y duo that I like that released a song for Christmas and it sounds a little Christian rock-y because of the lyrics of the song. But! They're a good duo and I don't think it's too terrible.

Having sprightly songs are fun, but it's also nice to cozy up to a dreamy one once in a while, ya know? ^^ So I think a sprinkling of all kinds are good. I do not like all Christmas songs out there (I actually loathe Santa Baby, hee) so it is perfectly normal that not everyone is going to like every song. We just mute or switch it out when a song comes out.

That is what variety is for. And it's important too.

Since I'm the one running it, I also have the ultimate say-so. I just prefer the more upbeat Christmas stuff over the really slow type ones. Of course, I'll throw some in there.

LOOOL. *hugs*

Did the world music I provide work out? I didn't have the chance to look through it.

Oh please. We know the real backbone here

I haven't either, Venus. When it comes time for me to make the playlists I'm going to use all these sources to get songs. ^_^

Tux I hate those songs. Ugh Santa Baby is just ugh!!

But you guys have to let me put troll songs on there or no fun.

No Brit, the girl who sings Santa baby sounds like a prostitute. XD
