Beatles - Tomorrow never knows
Azul BuhoI will draw this #NowPlayingXmas #Playlist to a close with a question. (Especially interested in answers from those of you who look like Zooey Deschanel.)
"What are you doing #NewYearsEve?"
VCK | Zooey Deschanel & Joseph Gordon-Levitt | What Are You Doing New Years Eve? | HelloGiggles
#MerryChristmas! ¡#FelizNavidad! #JoyeuxNoel! #FroheWeinachten!
I hope you are having/have had/are going to have the best #Xmas day possible. Peace and love to all the good guys. Coal and socks to the rotters.
364 Days to Go
I used to love #ChristmasEve when we went to stay with my grandparents. I knew we were in for a few days of being spoiled rotten, eating well, and there being no arguing. If we didn't go there, I hated today, cos I knew #Xmas would not be nice.
Anyway, here's a #song from my #NowPlayingXmas #playlist that I hope will be a comfort to you.
#Santa Will Find You, by #TrippingLily. (The original is by Mindy Smith, but her video is a bit MAGA.)
TRIPPING LILY- "Santa Will Find You"
Today for #NowPlayingXmas, an entire #playlist of #christmas #music palate cleansers. Nearly 100 #xmas #songs that you won't have heard a dozen times already this year. Enjoy!

I don't think this is a #Christmas song, really, and I can't tell if a #HardCandyChristmas is a good or bad thing, but this video has #DollyParton xmassing it up. And it's one of the few songs to contain the phrase 'fine and dandy', which is one of my favourites.
So it goes on the #NowPlayingXmas #playlist.
Hard Candy Christmas - Dolly Parton 1988
Panic is starting to set in now. 25 days per year just isn't enough to listen to all the good #Xmas #music. What have I forgotten? How much more can I take? I haven't even watched the #MariahCarey video yet!
Today's #song on my #NowPlayingXmas #playlist is a lovely one:
Maybe This #Christmas, by #RonSexsmith
Ron Sexsmith - "Maybe This Christmas"
I know #Xmas / #NYE can be tough. I am dead inside, so I don't mind being alone.
But if you're feeling lonely, and you don't want to be, please follow the #JoinIn hashtag. (It was a birdsite thing set up by #SarahMillican, but I think it's happening here too.)
Hopefully there'll be people around for you. Kind people. And if there aren't, you can reach out to me. x
Today on my #NowPlayingXmas #playlist:
A Hand To Hold At #Christmas by #RodMckuen.
A Hand to Hold at Christmas
My other favourite version of #OhHolyNight is by #SufjanStevens.
Simpler, a bit eerie, but has the verse with 'chains shall he break/for the slave is our brother/and in his name all oppression shall cease', which appeals to me as a #socialist. And then it pushes on and gets thrilling toward the end.
