Hey everyone, the days up to Christmas are flying by. Yet the lists of alternative Christmas songs out there is much, much longer than I ever anticipated. There are literally hundreds of worthy Xmas and holiday songs performed by an exciting and diverse line-up of musicians, groups and bands. Here is yet another example featuring artists such as Manic Street Preachers, Thick Pigeon, The Weepies, Monster Bobby, Green Day and dozens of others.

Post a review of any song and win an iTunes Gift Card!
Yup, anyone, anywhere can post a review (using the Comments section) of any one song on this playlist in 100 words or less.
On Thursday, December 27, 2007, a winner will be chosen and will receive the gift card (can only send to valid email addresses - obviously). This is a great way to perhaps become a regular contributor to this site. We are always looking for writers, photographers and videographers who have original material they would like to see published on a high-profile site.
Good luck and Happy Holidays everyone. Watch for the remaining five Xmas playlists as they will be all published by Christmas day. Then the "best of music" series for 2007 begins, including bloggers' lists for best songs, albums, music videos, concerts, festivals, artists, album cover artwork and more for 2007.
IRC will publish the 'Best of 2007' series during the next week or two. Each installment will feature artist profiles and links, MP3s and playlists, song and album reviews, music videos, artwork and more from the greatest musicians and bands of 2007 that will unlikely surface on any of the mainstream award shows like the Emmy's and the MTV Awards.
