Bestest New Christmas Songs 2021


Made that list, checked it twice and here it is in one glorious Spotify playlist, the Bestest New Christmas Songs of this year. No covers, from janglin' indie to sultry soul to heated up punk to Dutch parody hiphop. Yes, The Little Unsaid was released last year (see below). Yes, that Fotoform track was on Spotify in 2020 (apparently). Yes Clean Pete & Robin Kester re-did the ol' Coventry Carol, but they changed the lyrics (made 'm less brutal) so that it's not a straight cover. It's a very mixed bag, some really gorgeous songs are followed by harsh guitars, but hey, that's life, that's Christmas.

Ik mis The Boy Least Likely To met Two Christmases, mijn kerstsong van het jaar. En waarom geen Norah Jones? Echt een mooie plaat hoor, haar White Christmas is zo'n zeldzame die iets toevoegt aan het origineel. Elton/Sheeran kunnen we allebei missen als kiespijn. Maar zo'n Bad Christmas van The Heck, daar gaan mijn bellen wel van rinkelen. Kerst in Klazienaveen, sowieso de alliteratie van het jaar.

Boy LLT staat nog niet op Spotify. Norah Jones, heeft al zoveel aandacht gekregen. En Vivat the Heck
