A cozy, family-friendly Christmas mix with plenty of Canadian and East Coast flavour. Perfect for decorating the tree.
Little Toy Trains Xmas is a cozy, 64-song Christmas mix that avoids being the same old holiday radio rotation. It opens with Canadian blues singer Matt Andersen’s “Little Toy Trains,” then mixes classics and modern takes: Classified’s acoustic “The Bells Are Ringing,” Michael Bublé with Thalia on “Mis Deseos / Feliz Navidad,” and Vince Guaraldi’s “O Christmas Tree.”
Josh Groban, Michael Bublé, Sia and Justin Bieber each appear twice, and there are lovely surprises like Ed Sheeran and Elton John’s “Merry Christmas,” Heartless Bastards’ “Blue Christmas,” Ria Mae’s version of “Christmas (Baby Please Come Home),” Alanis Morissette, Barenaked Ladies with Sarah McLachlan, and Julian Casablancas’ “Christmas Treat.” The mood is warm, playful and a little nostalgic: perfect for decorating the tree, wrapping presents, baking cookies or a December drive to see the lights. It’s family friendly from start to finish, with enough East Coast and Canadian flavour to make it feel like a hometown holiday.
