I'm going to look back and laugh my guts up. The worse it gets the better it'll be in comparison.

Ten years ago I decided to make a Christmas mix for my friends and family. The goal was to make a mix by artists I admired with tracks that didn't turn my stomach. In the end, I made it to 10 years. This is the first year's disc. Each year seemed to get a little better, so stayed tuned for subsequent disks. I hope you enjoy.
