Celebrity Playlist: Santa Claus

Listen to this playlist here.

We finally got through to the North Pole with the help of Dennis the elf and Santa Claus has graciously provided me with his top Christmas music picks. Mr. Claus said about his selections, "There are so many great Christmas songs and a few I care not to ever hear again, but these are the songs I find myself listening to every year while doing the hard work of loading up the sleigh. Even though "Rudolph, the Red-Nosed Reindeer" is a bit overplayed, I have to include it or Rudy gets upset."
