Bitchtapes: X-treme X-mas

Music post by Kjerstin Johnson on December 25, 2009 - 8:51am; tagged BitchTapes, christmas, mixtape, seasonal music.

Mixing classics with covers, the Bitch staff has put together some of our favorite Christmas songs that span decades, genres, and levels of corniness. From the Loretta Lynn to Kristy MacColl and from Kinks to David Cassidy, you're sure to hear something you'll like. Plus, our mix contains a fair amount of songs that emphasize the not-so-jolly aspects of the season, like if you're heartbroken. Or in prison (see: John Prine). Enjoy, and we hope your winter celebrations are swell!

3. The Partridge Family - Rockin' Around the Christmas Tree

4. Loretta Lynn - To Heck With Old Santa Claus

The Pogues Fairytale of New

Posted by Twisted_Samuelle (not verified) on December 27, 2009 - 7:13pm

The Pogues Fairytale of New York is my favourite Christmas tune along with
Don't shoot me Santa by the Killers
and
My First Xmas as a Woman by the Vandals
and the Kinks' Father Christmas which you also posted, nice work ladies :)
