Christmas6Music - The Ultimate Alternative Christmas Party Playlist

Tom Robinson asks 6 Music listeners to help curate the Ultimate Alternative Christmas Party Playlist with the tracks they want to hear to celebrate the festive season.

When it comes to Christmas parties often the same old things get rolled out on the office stereo, but Tom Robinson wants to know what the 6 Music listeners think would make the Ultimate Alternative Christmas Party Playlist.
Mistletoe and wine might not be the vibe but instead expect Julian Casablancas, Sufjan Stevens and The Fall's odes to the festive season. But we want to know what you want to hear using #Christmas6Music and find more details on the Now Playing blog.
