I am an addict. I am addicted to Michael Bublé; furthermore, I am addicted to his Christmas album. In addition, I am also irrevocably hooked on Louis Armstrong’s, “What a wonderful world,” and Ramsey Lewis’, “Here comes Santa Clause.” To me, this is how I reign in the holidays and the winter season. There is no better way to signal the true spirit of winter than to listen to a soundtrack full of old jazzy Christmas tunes. This is eerily what gives me that warm fuzzy feeling inside, as I ponder about the generations that have been entertained by the same songs.
To celebrate this winter season, here are some of my favourites:
“Baby it’s cold outside”- Idina Menzel and Michael Bublé
“Christmas in New Orleans”- Louis Armstrong
“Jingle Bells”- Duke Ellington and His Orchestra
“Have yourself a Merry Little Christmas”- Ella Fitzgerald

Get cozy with these tunes and enjoy the rest of this winter season. From YAA to all of you, we wish you a Happy Winter.
