As Christmas as it Gets

As you all well know, we loooove Christmas and we love Christmas music. But even we can get sort of tired of hearing the same songs after our gigantic playlist has repeated for nearly a month. But there’s one album that we feel is such a masterpiece that we have been listening to it over and over since it came out in 1999. Low’s Christmas completely redefined the genre. It’s never cheesy or saccharine. It is deeply moving, eerie, sad, beautiful, haunting, and—in the case of the outlier but most-famous song “Just Like Christmas”, somehow playful and wistful at once.
