My Favorite Christmas Songs, Movies, and Specials

Instead of my sixth Turnstile NYC Thursday, which will be on Times Square next week, (How appropriate!), I am going to do it on a bunch of my Favorite Christmas Songs, Movies, and TV Specials, that me and my family listen to and watch on Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, and also the day after Christmas now, with the birth of my cousin Isabella, last year on Christmas.

I will be doing this list just like I did with the Beatles song list, but what I am also going to do is put two of my all-time favorite songs down below in videos from YouTube. My other all-time favorite songs, such as Dean Martin's "Baby, It's Cold Outside", and Paul McCartney's "Wonderful Christmastime", can be listened to on my other Tune Tuesday and Seasonal Saturday posts from earlier this month. The song list of the 150 songs is in alphabetical order, and the movie and special lists are in my favorite order (There are some ties, but I didn't show them. All of these movies and specials are excellent!)
