Oh Charlie Brown... you loveable loser. You're the reason we all root for the underdog. And I just love the Peanuts dancing.

There's just something about this album that puts me in a Christmas spirit. Listening to it sends me back to being a kid and spending an evening decorating the tree, having hot cocoa and watching the classic TV special. Aside from the great memories, it's just great music. A quintessential classic!!

Who doesn't love Charlie Brown?! The beloved Charles M. Schulz "Peanuts" characters come to life in a series of television specials that have lasted the ages. A Charlie Brown Christmas finds our Charlie looking for the true meaning of the season. Did I mention this movie also has a killer soundtrack by Vince Guaraldi Trio? We listen to it every year while putting up the tree. As youngsters, my sister and I even made up a dance to "Linus and Lucy." ;)

One of the things my sister and I quote the most often. It's a classic, it's an amazing metaphor for corporate America, and it's got one of the best soundtracks -- by jazz pianist Vince Guaraldi.

This movie is super ingrained in my holiday spirit. I mean, it wa son the tube before I could even speak and it continued to play during the holidays well...still. So if you were to say "Christmas", I'd say "Charlie Brown" (and clap exuberantly like a slow child) or some other animated holiday classic. Its really a Pavlov's dogs sorta thing. Mention the title of this film and i'll just start unwrapping random things. (via Amazon)

This is definitely the best Christmas movie ever! (via Amazon)

No matter how high-strung I am, every time I hear "Christmas Time is Here" I calm down immediately, and I get this silly grin on my face. If you are unsure about buying it, you can listen to the entire album for free on Download.com. (via biskit)
