Are You Listening to Christmas Music Yet?

I'm sitting here at my desk listening to music as I work. For the last few days, my playlist has been all Christmas. I have several playlists with hours of Christmas music on my computer, and that's what I've been listening to.
It's not that I'm sitting here wishing Christmas would hurry up and get here, like a child who can't wait for the big day to come. But for some reason the Christmas music just fits my mood. I don't really know why.
How about you - are binging on Christmas music yet?

Christmas begins early in my country. By 1st September, and all the duration of the BER months, music fills the air.
This one is a favorite all throughout the land. Please tell if you like it.
LYRICS: Whenever I see girls and boys selling lanterns on the streets i remember the Child in the manger as He sleeps wherever there are people giving gifts,...

@emjeeslot Jose Mari Chan defined the loving and the caring that is innate in the Filipino. His narration of feelings in his Christmas songs spells nostalgia every one is compelled to internalize during the season.

Wow! The beginning of September is a little early even for me. Thanks for the YouTube link - I'll give it a listen.

No, John, no! Do you have an ancestor with the first name Ebenezer?

@RonElFran Haha - yes, maybe you're right. I'm glad you're enjoying them so early.

You're letting your sense of anticipation build until one day soon you'll be overwhelmed and won't be able to listen to anything else!

I have not been listening to Christmas music yet since the local radio stations in Lake Charles will commence the music for the Christmas holiday just after Thanksgiving evening at midnight.

That's the way radio stations here do it as well. That's why I'm glad to have those hours of Christmas music on my computer to listen to whenever I feel the urge.

@RonElFran The same here with the Music Channel on my cable system which plays Christmas music under the music for the seasons section.

I never put a time for Christmas music. I listen to it whenever I want to listen to it. Sometimes I need a Christmas in the middle of summer. At this very moment, I'm not listening to Christmas music.

I've also been known to listen to Christmas music in July. Maybe it helps take the mind off the heat!

That's ok. But if you should cheat and start getting Christmasy before November is over, that would be even better, IMO!

Speaking of nuts, anyone who doesn't like Christmas music probably doesn't like fruitcake either. Such people obviously have no appreciation for the finer things of life.

@RonElFran Fruitcake? Are you serious? Who eats those? I thought nobody ever actually ATE a fruitcake.

That's too bad. For me, Christmas music never grows old.
