Like most people, I associate certain songs and sounds with Christmastime — Phil Spector’s oeuvre for instance. Now, this isn’t just because Phil Spector put out a Christmas album in 1963 or that I love inmates singing carols; I simply equate the reverb-soaked tracks with winter, snow, and yes, Christmas.

Now, in case you don’t quite have the same association that I do, here’s two more overtly Christmas tunes. One from Phil’s Christmas masterpiece, the other from Bruce Springsteen. General similarities abound.
