I don't know if you all have a station like this, but one of our stations here in town (the Yuppie station) will begin playing Christmas music from Thanksgiving day through Christmas day - all Christmas, 24/7....It's quite interesting, because they play a LOT of Carpenters Christmas music...but the mix is anything but standard fare - it ranges from way, way, way back when to some of today's new stuff, like Clay Aiken. I enjoy getting into my car and being surprised to hear Carpenters singing Christmas.....it's always such a joy. Best, Tim

At least one station in Chicago plays Christmas music from Thanksgiving on. (About 20 years ago another station started with all Christmas music a week before Christmas- at the time that was quite a bold move), but the music season, like the shopping season, gets longer and longer. But we do hear more Carpenters on the radio than at any other time of year. Like Dave said once, it used to be just "Merry Christmas Darling"- but now at least a half dozen songs get considerable play.

Yes, we will start hearing Christmas music any day now here in So Cal. "Merry Christmas Darling," "Home For The Holidays", "Sleigh Ride" and "Christmas Song" seem to be the most played on our local radio L.A. and O.C. radio stations.
