Plus, we’ve left you a little message – take a look at the first letter of each song!

Have yourself a merry little Christmas – Michael Bublé A classic – we’ve gone for the Bublé version, but it’s rare to find a bad cover of this one.

All I Want for Christmas is You – Mariah Carey How could we not? It’s not Christmas without a bit of Mariah.

Please come home for Christmas - Eagles

Paul McCartney – Wonderful Christmastime Ok, so we’ve cheated a bit here - but it was that or Parade of the Tin Soldiers. Plus our HQ is in Liverpool, so we had to get a Beatle in there somewhere!

You’re a mean one, Mr Grinch A tune for the Scrooge at every Christmas party.

Christmas (baby please come home) – Darlene Love One for the yearners.

Hard Candy Christmas – Dolly Parton Is it Christmas without at least one country song?

Rockin’ Around the Christmas Tree – Brenda Lee

It’s the Most Wonderful Time of the Year – Andy Williams

Santa Baby – Eartha Kitt Another classic. We’re sure this is the year we’ll find a yacht under the tree.

The Happiest Christmas Tree - Nat King Cole One for when you’re feeling silly!

Merry Christmas Everyone – Shakin Stevens Need we say more?

All I Want for Christmas is My Two Front Teeth – Nat King Cole Again, one for the (big) kids

Sleigh Ride by The Ronettes

Feliz Navidad – José Feliciano Possibly the most cheery Christmas song of all time.

Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer – Gene Autry Of course. Bonus points to the intro for also being a pub quiz answer.

O’ Christmas Tree – Aretha Franklin

Mary’s Boy Child – Boney M Who says Christmas can’t be disco?

Frosty the Snowman – Bing Crosby

Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow! - Frank Sinatra Just not on any motorways!

O’ Come All Ye Faithful – Nat King Cole

Underneath the Tree – Kelly Clarkson Last-minute-shopping-centre-dash nostalgia in one song.

Run Rudolph Run – Chuck Berry One for the rock and roll lovers!

I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus – Jackson 5

Step Into Christmas – Elton John An absolute cracker (get it?) – bouncy and cheerful, just as Christmas should be

Here Comes Santa Claus – Gene Autry

And there we have it! With a few more songs below that didn’t fit in our very clever acrostic Christmas playlist.

On a slightly more serious note, 2024 has been huge for us. We’ve rebranded from Grey Matter Learning, AC Education and MyWorkMode into one company, dedicated to helping the health and social care sector to flourish. It’s been a lot of work and a huge learning experience – we’re so grateful to every single member of our Flourish family.

We hope this playlist adds a little sparkle to your holiday season – here’s to a very Happy Christmas!
