LOCAL songstress, Chloe Clark, shared her top 10 Christmas playlist with the Highway Mail.
“While having a little Christmas bake off the other day with a bunch of friends, I was reminded how much I love Christmas tunes! We played our way through all the ‘best of” Christmas albums and sang our way while making treats. Music can spark memories and bring people together and that is ultimately why I think Christmas jingles become so magical this time of year,” said the talented singer.
Below is her favourite and sassy top 10 Christmas tunes:
10. It’s the Most Wonderful Time of the Year – Diana Ross
9. Santa Baby – Eartha Kit
8. Christmas Lights – Coldplay
7. Auld Lang Syne – Frank Sinatra and Dean Martin “I know this is more of a New Year’s number but it fills me with Christmas fever,” exclaimed the singer.
6. Little Drummer Boy – Pentatonix
5. Winter Wonderland – Doris Day
4. Feliz Navidad – Michael Buble
3. All I Want for Christmas Is You – Fifth Harmony
“My number one is a tie between She & Him and Katie Melua. Zooey Deschanel (of She & Him and New Girl fame) is one of my favourite actresses and singers, so her version is just winning on every level. Secondly, a few years ago when I was just starting to do bigger shows around Durban, I opened for the Dolphin Show at uShaka Marine World by singing this little number while the most beautiful creatures jumped and danced in the water while we sangand what a magical experience it was,” said Chloe.
1. Oh Holy Night – Katie Melua
1. Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas – She & Him
“The lyrics of Oh Holy Night are more than phenomenal and when the end of the year rears it’s head, one often reflects on the year it has been. I know that for many people 2016 has been an exceptionally tricky year. The resounding beautiful lyrics of hope for the future are a comfort as we head into a new year.
