Rick Springfield is releasing his first Christmas album in career that spans over 30 years. All proceeds from the recording of the song Christmas with You will be donated to support the US military veterans organization American Gold Star Mothers, Inc. The must have CD with 14 Christmas songs is selling for the bargain price of $9.98, and for that price I am going to buy myself something special for the season! Doesn’t he sound wonderful singing Christmas with You? Rick Springfield gets better with age and can you believe he is almost 60?

I have to admit I just love his sugary sweet Christmas videos! I don’t know why, but there is just something about them. Maybe there is a brainwashing effect to them and I am brainwashed? Either way, they are just happy! Tis the season to be happy!!!
For those of you who do not watch Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip, Aaron Sorkin did a storyline about displaced musicians from New Orleans who were filling in for staffed musicians so they could send some Christmas gifts home to their families. When they ended the show with the New Orleans band playing O Holy Night, I swear I had a tear come to my eye. It was a really touching moment! I am not sure if you can get that from the clip above, but at least you can enjoy the music and get into the Holiday spirit!!!
BTW the trombone player really is from New Orleans and you check out Troy “Trombone Shorty” Andrews’ site here.

I always love when Jews do Christmas, but at least they had fun with it! That video is so cool, don’t you think? The only negative thing I can say about it…is the song gets stuck in your head!
