Mr. Mustachio's 2012 Christmas Mix

The moment you have all been waiting for has arrived:

MR. MUSTACHIO'S 2012 CHRISTMAS MIX IS HERE!  

Due to the fact that the world is going to end in a few days (allegedly), I decided to expand this year's mix to 2 discs.  Might as well enjoy the bonus disc while you have a chance! As always, I will share my top 3 favorite Christmas songs for this year.  Then I will give you the track list for the two discs.  Also (as always), I am willing to let you "borrow" a copy of the mix.  Enjoy, and Happy Holidays!

1. Christmas in the Sand - Colbie Caillat
This is a new song for 2012.  It combines many of the things I like about Christmas songs.  It talks about Santa, the beach, and is sung by somebody with a great voice.  Colbie Caillat sings a lot of good Christmas songs, but this is my favorite this year.

2.  Happy Holidays - Andy Williams
I really like a lot of the older Christmas songs.  This one hasn't been at the top of my list in years past.  I usually listened to the remix version by Beef Wellington.  However, as I was doing my holiday Cellphone DJing I got to hear this song quite a bit.  How could I not have enjoyed a song with the lines, "whoop de doo and dickory dock" in it?  I have this song constantly stuck in my head.

3.  Feliz Navidad - Jose Feliciano
If I had to choose right now, I would pick this as my all-time favorite Christmas song.  I've liked this song since I was just a little guy.  I like the guitar.  I like the combination of Spanish and English.  I had this song as my ringtone for more than a year.  I like it that much.
