If you&#8217;ve been here in previous Decembers, you probably know the drill &#8212; or think you do, anyhow. While there&#8217;s still a playlist featured below, it is unchanged from <a href=\"https:\/\/johnesimpson.com\/blog\/2020\/12\/a-quirky-eclectic-christmas-mix-2020-ed\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">the 2020 edition<\/a>&#8230; thanks to Road Trip 2021 and its abundant distractions, challenges, and schedule-related stresses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So please, enjoy the 130 songs here, with my apologies for there not being 140 (heh). Remember that my favorite way to listen is to click the little &#8220;Popout&#8221; button at top left &#8212; the resulting mix will be randomized, and if you don&#8217;t like the order it offers just refresh the popout window until you get a satisfactory sequence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With luck, in December 2022 I&#8217;ll return to the routine: ten new songs added to the end of the list each year. Until then, please stay safe and happy this season&#8230; and also (the 2020s version of the wish) <em>healthy<\/em>!<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[Video: Sharon Jones &amp; the Dap Kings, &#8220;Please Come Home for Christmas&#8221; &#8212; lyrics here &#8212; in a performance recorded six years ago.] Greetings, RAMH visitors!
