We get a tad more serious with this one. Call it the "(Not the Crass Capitalist) Reason for the Season" mix
- Joy to the World - O. C. Supertones Fun take on a good postmill hymn--which shouldn't get stuck in the seasonal category, either.
- O Come All Ye Faithful - Flight 180 a spirited take on the classic
- The First Noel- Leigh Nash our first dose of Nash this mix, second of the season...
- Babe in the Straw - Derri Daughtery/Riki Michelle/Steve Hindalong from the ever-so underrated album Noel (which could be seen as City on a Hill: It's Christmastime: The Prequel)
- Holy Emmanuel- Terry Scott Taylor from City on a Hill: It's Christmastime, Taylor can really sing when he's not goofing
- O Holy Night- Leigh Nash and Michael Tait Nash + the best voice from DC Talk
- O Come, O Come, Emmanuel - Chasing Fluries TLomL's favorite Carol (if I recall correctly)
- What Child is This - Poor Old Lu This is one of my all-time favorite bands, and their style fits this one to a T
- Angels We Have Heard on High - Carolyn Arends/Stephen Murray/Jenny Gullen another from Noel, possibly my favorite Carol
- Joy to the World/For Unto Us a Child is Born - Amy Grant Ms. Grant provides a bookend of sorts along with a nod to Handel's "Easter" piece that for some reason is a Christmas favorite...
