Dec. 18, 2015-Jan. 1, 2016 – 9th Annual Christmas Music Special

Posted on December 18, 2015 by Mike "The Legend"

Friends, it’s that time once again when we get in the festive spirit and bring you a bundle of Christmas cheer with our 9th Annual Christmas Music Special! Year after year, too many of the same Christmas songs are played over and over again, which is why we’ve put together a great line-up of seasonal songs you won’t find anywhere else. Did you know there are booty-call Christmas songs out there? Well, we’ll play some from Steel Panther and RuPaul. We’ll also revisit the Christmas episodes from some of your favourite 90’s cartoons with songs from Ren and Stimpy, Animaniacs, Dexter’s Lab, Goof Troop, and Bump In The Night. The heavier side of the musical spectrum gets visited with songs focused on Krampus, but we’ll bring you back up with a selection of surf-pop Christmas ditties. As always, we encourage you to follow the iTunes links below to purchase these songs for yourself. So tune in, turn on, and enjoy a Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays us here at The Arcade.
