Most of you know how much I love the holidays, and each year I find myself getting increasingly more Christmas cheer than ever before. This year for my birthday Matt bought me Harry Connick Jr.’s newest disc, “What A Night! A Christmas Album,” which was released the day after my birthday. Suffice it to say… the boy knows.

I’ve been playing it non-stop, so it’s only appropriate that I blog about it this week. Like any other Connick Jr. album, the songs are well-orchestrated and leave you humming new riffs that you will now forever associate with “Have A Holly Jolly Christmas.” Although it hasn’t yet taken the place in my heart that belongs to his 2003 album “Harry for the Holidays,” I have to admit that it’s pretty cute to hear him singing along with his daughter Kate who has some SERIOUS CHOPS!

As always, you can preview the album in the Amazon widget in the sidebar. And if you need a serious boost of Christmas cheer (which some of you Scrooges REALLY need!), download it to your iPod and try to withstand crushing hardcore on H Jr.

Also, I always link you through to Amazon because I prefer buying mp3s from their site over iTunes. But I’m sure you can find it there as well.
