I'm putting together a Holiday CD and just curious to know which order I should put the songs in terms of flow but also taking quality into consideration. Including Richie & Dave stuff too.

Any recommendations?

Ok, album for the holidays eh?

It's my life, Reggae version - Reminds me of a good jamaican summer
Hollywood dreams - Because hollywoods a big holiday destination
Santa fe - Another hot place you could go on holiday
Tumblin' dice - Daves version, dice reminds me of vegas: another big holiday destination.
Brokenpromiseland - I wonder what it'd be like to visit there.
Dry county - Another prime destination
Lost highway - Classic travelling song and follows DC seamlessly.
Ride cowboy ride - A good song about travelling and cool intro to:
The distance - Because when you travel you 'go the distance' geddit?!
Harlem rain - by Richie, Harlem is a place and people visit places.
The end - Cos its the end of the album.

Bonus tracks: Prostitute - You can get them on holiday too!

I think its a work of genius myself. There a wide variety of material from all the band, all the Jovi eras from the early days up until the circle, it fits a holiday/on the road/ travelling theme, flows fantastically and answers all your problems. No need to thank me x

Genius? More like a mad scientist! LOL

I have the holiday music that Jovi's released in a playlist on my iPod. Knowing me, it's probably in the order it was released, but I'll check and post again.

Here's what I have:

R2-D2 We Wish You a Merry Christmas - JBJ from Christmas in the Stars
Please Come Home for Christmas - from the single
I Wish Everyday Could Be Like Christmas - from the Please Come Home for Christmas single
Back Door Santa - from the Please Come Home for Christmas single
Cantique de Noel - RS from Merry Axemas - A Guitar Christmas
Please Come Home for Christmas (Live) - JBJ from Very Special Christmas Live
Christmas (Baby Please Come Home) (Live) - JBJ from Very Special Christmas Live
Blue Christmas - JBJ from Very Special Christmas 5
O Come All Ye Faithful - RS from A Home for the Holidays

I think I make it through R2-D2 about once every year, and then I skip it. I don't have a copy of Funky Santa, but I've heard it. Let's just say it didn't make me want to run right out and find a copy.

Any important day like that (Christmas, Thanksgiving, Independence Day, etc.) is called a holiday here. "The Holidays" is another term for Christmas. A "holiday" to you people is what we call a "vacation."

You could put this on your CD.

In America, people celebrate other things besides Christmas such as Chanukah, Festivus, etc.

To be "Politically Correct" we got in the habit of saying "Holiday" so other religions and nationalities won't be offended.

But I do appreciate the "Vacation" song list above.

But yes, I'm looking for a list of all Christmas/Holiday songs sung by the band or solo. And also looking for a good order to put them all in.

For the record, I'd LOVE an official release of Run, Run Rudolph!

Christmas (Baby Please Come Home) is in my opinion the best christmas related release that anyone in Bon Jovi has ever had te honor of performing......
