Laughing and telling stories around a crackling fire with loved ones. Trudging through powdery snow, your nose pink from the cold. Warm drinks at the neighborhood bar. Dancing under strings of twinkling lights. Whatever your favorite holiday memory is, there is a song to go with it… music takes a moment and turns it into magic. We want you to help us put together a holiday playlist full of all your most magical moments – here’s how:
Tweet your submission @freepeople with the hashtag #fpholidayplaylist. We’ll compile your submissions and share the playlist a week from today!
My submission: “Golden” by My Morning Jacket. This song captures the feeling of nostalgia present during the holidays so perfectly for me.
I can’t wait to see your submissions!
