I love pretty much everything about the holiday season: houses decorated with twinkling lights, gift-giving, cold nights and warm drinks. Because the holiday season puts me in such a great mood, I usually begin celebrating way earlier than socially acceptable. This means I usually start listening to Christmas music by Nov. 1 (at the very latest).

However, I admit that traditional songs can get old or feel a little cheesy. If you’re anything like me, and you love Christmas music, but you are tired of listening to the same carols on repeat, this playlist is for you.

“>here. It includes 25 songs total and is approximately one hour and 24 minutes long.

Here’s a sample of some of the music on the mix:

White Winter Hymnal by Fleet Foxes

Last Christmas by Jimmy Eat World

Pretty Paper by The Lumineers

Christmas Wrapping by The Waitresses

Just Like Christmas by Low
