Rhode Island:
"Christmas in Newport" by: Dick Lupino
This jazzy song is so cheesy I kept expecting it to suddenly turn into a parody of itself. The melody is very nice, but the lyrics are cloying at best, and I don't enjoy the amount of vibrato he sings with-it's unnecessary.

South Carolina:
"Christmas in South Carolina" by Dr. BLT
Based on his name, I half expected a rap song. After listening to this, I wish it were a rap song. It's just simple guitar and too many jingle bells (you, know, because Christmas.) It's a miserable love-sick song with sub-par vocals. I am not a fan.

"Christmas in Carolina" by: The Marshall Tucker Band
Once again, names can be deceiving. Based on the name, I expected bluegrass or straight up country; instead I got a big band, bluesy, R&B sound. The lyrics are appropriate levels of Christmas cheesiness. While this style of music isn't my favorite, I can certainly appreciate this song for it's good musical qualities. It makes a nice addition to any Christmas party playlist.
