I can relate. I've been making holiday playlists for decades --first as mix tapes, then CDs. Still have them all (pick hits: "Santa's a Hippie" by Don Sneed Jr. and "Happy New Year to You!" by The Qualities aka Sun Ra). And my birthday is 12/19. I'll be playing Yule Be Naughty at my b-day/holiday gathering this weekend. Thanks.
That's funny - I found the Qualities/Sun Ra "It's Christmas" but not the new year song. Don Sneed Jr. does not seem to have made it to the streaming universe. Thank you!
Thank you. Merry Christmas!

The Sun Ra New Year’s ditty is on Spotify, at least here in Brooklyn: https://open.spotify.com/track/0jDsjAAeRUOrQ56jfHC3Tb?si=ba0d3604c72342a7
Oh, I meant I found the Christmas one making the mixes (it's on there) but only found the New Year one after your comment!
And you can always go with Homer & Jethro's (inferior) "Santa Claus, The Original Hippie." But I like the inevitable answer song "Santa Claus 'Aint a Hippie" by Charlie Stewart. Happy holidays! https://open.spotify.com/track/6WNmmGG1lTX1s2YplTX1XL?si=87ab077c811c40f3
The answer song is the one I found when I looked - I do like that one too!
