Holly Jolly X'masu


Jan 31, 2024

Welcome to episode 101 of Holly Jolly X'masu! In this episode, I talk about a selection of Christmas singles from the 1990s.

Jelly Beans – Even Lies Are True With A Pure Heart – 1997

It’s been a rough month, but I’m getting this one out just under the wire. After a ridiculously hectic and restless December, I needed a little time off, so this will be the only episode I get out in January, but I’ll try to have my next episode out early next week. After that, I’m hoping to be back on track.

Chika Ueda – Holy Night Tonight – 1992

Auga Yaya – Tomorrow Heart – 1996

MIEKO – Once Again Merry X’mas – 1992

Tomoko Konno – Black Christmas – 1994

Rie Miyazawa – Sweet X’mas Kiss – 1993

Kazuyuki Ozaki – Christmas For Just The Two Of Us – 1991

Toshiki Sano & Lag Time – Christmas Tide – 1990

Scanch – I Wish It Could Be Christmas Everyday – 1995

Join me back here next time for Mari Yoshiko’s “Singing Christmas Party” from 1962. It’s a real rarity, but it’s a lot of fun, so you’re sure to enjoy it.

As always, any feedback on this episode would be appreciated. If have any suggestions, or if you’d like to recommend a song or album for a future episode, drop me a line and let me know.

Remember, I've added a button to my Ko-fi page. If you'd like to support me one cup of coffee at a time, a donation is only $3. I’ve also opened a Redbubble store. I only have a couple designs up, but keep an eye on it as I’ll be trying to add more. Half of any proceeds or donations received will be donated to support the people of Ukraine, while the rest will be used to purchase new Japanese Christmas music to review for future episodes. You can also find me on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter. And if you get a chance, leave me a review on iTunes. Thanks!
