1 B When do people start playing Christmas songs where you live? Which are the most popular Christmas tunes in your country? Do artists from your country release new Christmas songs at this time of year? Read the first part of the article and find out what type of Christmas songs are being released in the US this holiday season. December 2016 Bustle 2016 Christmas Songs Guaranteed To Bring Tidings Of Comfort And Joy When it comes to putting together an ultimate Christmas playlist for the holiday season, it can be all too easy to forget about new songs, and to rely only on the classics. And when you ve got songs like Mariah s All I Want For Christmas Is You or Eartha Kitt s version of Santa Baby to croon along to on repeat, who can really blame you? But the truth is you d be missing out on a lot of really great music if you were to do that. And all the new Christmas songs of 2016 definitely prove that to be the case. So far, 2016 is offering an eclectic mix of Christmas hits, with jaw-dropping a cappella feats, old-school treats, being released alongside some startlingly traditional approaches to some classic tunes. Some of these songs might make you want to dance, others might make you want to cry and some might just make you want to drink an entire punch bowl of egg nog and take a nap beside your Christmas tree. But all of them are full of some serious festive magic. In order to help with the easy curation of a perfect Yuletide playlist, the following Christmas songs of 2016 all have some of that special, holiday magic. Which of the genres mentioned do you prefer, a cappella, old-school, classic, etc.? b 2 Listen to the clip from the first song the journalist describes and say what genre you would put it in and what you think of the song. B Read the journalist s comments and compare them to yours. Jordan Smith - You re A Mean One, Mr. Grinch By far the best song on Tis The Season, the first holiday album by The Voice winner, Smith s rendition of the classic holiday song is full of personality and wit along with his ever flawless and powerful vocal style. B Read the following descriptions and then listen to the next three clips and say which ones are which. Kylie Minogue At Christmas All hail the eternal pop goddess charms of Kylie Minogue and may she reign forever glorious. Because 1/6
2 as At Christmas proves, there s a time and a place for nuanced and tempered, and the festive season simply isn t it. Ms. Minogue has gone big with her music this festive season and I salute her for it. JJ Hellar - Christmas Is Here Having said all of that, there s still definitely a place for sweetness, love and festive magic in a holiday song, and that s exactly what Hellar s song (taken from the album Unto Us) delivers in huge quantities. Laira Daigle - White Christmas Likely the best rendition of this holiday classic that you ll hear this Christmas, Daigle s arrangement is distinctly cool and full of a laid back, jazz infused merriment. 2 Do you agree with the journalist s descriptions? Which of the styles do you like the best, jazzy, pop, etc.? Listen to the final three clips and match these descriptions to the songs: b a cover that pays tribute to Ned Humphrey Hansen ludicrously astounding vocal feats delivers a spoken-word story a compelling, complimentary and slick duet an a cappella Christmas choir B Read the final part of the article and check your ideas. Brett Eldridge feat. Megan Trainor - Baby It s Cold Outside Regardless of how you may feel towards this song, there s no denying that Eldridge and Trainor s voices make for a compelling, complimentary and slick duet. Pentatonix God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen Plug in some headphones and indulge in this song for a moment because by doing so it s basically just like having the World s best a cappella Christmas choir performing a solo show just for you. Their ludicrously astounding vocal feats on this song are, as ever, completely jaw dropping. The Killers - I ll Be Home For Christmas Starting with lead singer Brandon Flowers delivering a spoken-word story about his family moving from Henderson, Nevada to Payson, Utah, this sweet cover pays tribute to Ned Humphrey Hansen Flowers fourth grade science teacher. To add to the overall touching loveliness of the song, Hansen also happens to sing along with Flowers on the track. And now I m totally crying. That s it, now I officially need to listen to Swingin Christmas Time and Happy Holiday on repeat, do some online Christmas shopping and eat a candy cane like right now. Happy listening, out there. 2/6

A tale of a World War II soldier stationed, writing a letter to his family about the return that he may never make. I saw it struck deep in him. Now, it would be easy to Mr Hansen as brave. After all, this was a man who himself had his country during the Korean war. But getting up in front of twenty five nine-year-olds and singing a capella? That s a whole other kind of bravery altogether. The other kids were looking for the nearest : they couldn t bear the embarrassment. But not me. I was wrapped up in it. I couldn t help myself. I knew I was experiencing something different from the others, but I was uplifted so it didn t matter. I felt the of war. I felt the power of a song, and that s the kind of thing that sticks with you. You don t let it go. And so, for this here Christmas song, I have a friend I brought along.
