Catventurer: My favorite Christmas music track is actually Duke Ellington's Sugar Rum Cherry. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ONknTGUckKc
I agree :). Despite a not so great Google translation indicating otherwise, I don't think this one necessarily has any particular connection with Christmas. It is a traditional song in Colombia and Equador with tons of variations (some called Velo Qué Bonito). But I've been playing this one on repeat (San Antonio = St. Anthony):
Juan Pino & Quemando Palabras (Barda Remix) - San Antonio
The unmixed version is also good. It also turns out searching YouTube for "san Antonio ya se va" is a great way to find Colombian bands, including a hip hop group with a nice video for their version:
Diamante Negro - San Antonio
