It's that time of year again where almost everyone is making their lists and checking them twice, or thrice, four times even. The first two songs list things that may make it easier to "Have Yourself a Merry Christmas," whether it's the numerous nostalgia inducers mentioned in "Christmas Time Again My Friend," or the blessings some may pray on Christmas for, while others take advantage of. While it has been long debated whether "Jesus Christ is Born" on December 25th or not, the true reason for the season has not changed, and the latter and the last song give honor where it is due.
It is a short, sweet, and consistent set of songs given to the world to share the story of the light of the world, but not until after they introduce a song that includes holiday associations the world will be familiar with, or a Christmas Canon classic.
