Aloe Blacc works himself up with R+B and funk to determine “I Got Your Christmas Right Here“. Imagine the appropriate gesture for here at your peril.
The Mavericks play it cool through bebopping blues to reveal “I Have Wanted You For Christmas“ since the world began. Even before Christ. I guess. May be exaggerating a bit. Don’t care when it’s this good.

The Goldiggers get stuck between repetition and scat when they big band their easy listening “I Just Want You for Christmas“. You girls!
George Stait stays aw shucks focused when he two-steps through “I Know What I Want for Christmas“. Despite the CW buildup, it’s just being with you. Not like a kidney or anything.
Winterval unleashes the power of gentle New Age indie on “I Love You More Than Christmas Day“. Kisses and ultimatums pop up in this simple simmering of feelings. But it’s courteous.
