The easiest kind of blog to write is a blog like this one, a simple list. Not so simple is deciding what to include – and not include – in the list. This list is my 10 favorite Christmas songs, my Christmas playlist. I won’t try to rank them, with the exception of number 1. All the others would be a tie for second place.
Here they are:
Number 1: Jesus, What a Wonderful Child – Mariah Carey
