Sounds of Christmas
RECENTLY PLAYED
A couple things about the new player...
First, this player should show up for everyone. The old player had a security flaw that prevented it from appearing in a lot of browsers.
If you click on POP OUT, a small version of this same player will pop out and you can listen while you roam around the internet. And, as before, if you click on three on the front page or the LISTEN NOW page, our player will pop out for you, as well.
A new feature on this player is the button that says LOVE THIS SONG. Clicking that allows you to vote for the song that is currently playing. That helps us to know what songs are listeners really like. And it's set so that you can only vote once for a song that is playing, to prevent overzealous fans from voting a hundred times (or more) for any particular song.
The other thing that this button will help with is the creation of a giant list of our listeners' favorite songs, which we'll actually reveal next summer when we count down the top 5000 Christmas songs as selected by YOU!
The Sounds of Christmas 5000 will happen in July, and you'll be able to vote through the season, and into 2027. I think we'll cut it off in May or June so we can compile the list and build the giant countdown!
If you have bookmarked our website or LISTEN NOW page, that all will remain the same. If you got our app, that will stop working in the next week or so. We also moved to a new server (better, faster, stronger), and the old one will go away at some point this month (probably next week).
There are new apps in the works, connected to our new server, and hopefully those will be available before the new season of the Sounds of Christmas begins on November 1.
In the meantime, there are a couple of apps that do feature the Sounds of Christmas station, and you will be able to listen on your device to those, once they switch their info to the new server.
That said, whether it's on our forthcoming apps, or on someone else's app, the only way to vote is through the players on this website (and that includes the pop-up players).
As with most new tech, there may be a few bumps in the road as we move through October, so please bear with us!
If you encounter any issues, please let us know, and we'll do our best to address them! In the meantime, we hope you like it and that you enjoy listening to the Sounds of Halloween on the new player!
