Idag finns ingen reglering alls. Vem vill inte ha snygga och lättsköt

Från Mariah Careys smällkaramell ”All I Want for Christmas” till Whams förlorade kärlek i “Last Christmas” – varje låt bär på sin egen berättelse om varför just den hör julen till. – Julmusikens kraft ligger i dess förmåga att sätta oss i kontakt med våra känslor, från fest till eftertanke.
