New Music: Mayer Hawthorne “Christmas Time Is Here”

I don’t usually post Christmas music, in fact I tend to dislike Christmas music. I’m not sure why but it always makes me cringe, however, the rendition of “Christmas Time is Here” by the one and only Mayer Hawthorne I couldn’t resist. Perhaps it is that sweet voice of his, or the fact that he has a lot of cred with me, but this song has passed the test and has been added to my Christmas playlist. Song over the Vince Guaraldi Trio’s classic “Christmas Time is Here,” made most popular by A Charlie Brown Christmas. The track appeared on the Stones Throw site with this message from Mayer Hawthorne:

Happy Holidays everyone,

All the best Christmas songs were written by Jews, and Chanukah songs suck. This is my favorite Christmas tune, sung over the Vince Guaraldi instrumental.

Cheers,
Mayer Hawthorne
