Didn't sound critical, don't worry! I think this is exclusive to Christmas songs for me, and I don't think either of us are processing this in a weird way. I'm not sure I particularly like them in the first place, so I think my desire to hear them is reduced further when they're not relevant, but they just sound wrong to listen to in, say, early spring. Maybe it's because I grew up in a church school and only sung the associated hymns right around Christmas, so they're exclusively associated with the season in my head.

Peace Beyond Passion was a very solid album, though I expected it to score fairly low. Like Sade, it's gorgeous but there's not really any standout hits. Her emotion really comes through in every song, and I wish it clicked for me more, but it was a great addition to the cycle.

No real comment on Crash Kings. I think it's the least memorable of all these albums, almost nothing stood out. It sounds alright, but didn't draw me in at all.
