Santa Sonny’s Festive 51

[sonnyburnit]

Good day y’all!!! So I’m turning 50 tomorrow and I wanted to share my latest mix for the Sunday Morning Massacre. I chose 1 song from each year (1973-2023) and rolled it all into a 4 hour ride on the Sonny Express… takes you to that place and doesn’t cost a thing. There’s a little something for everyone on there and put it on at one of those Holiday parties playing that boring ass Christmas music and you’ll be the belle of the ball. Hope everyone has a great Holiday season!!!

Cheers Sonny and congrats on the half ton. Real fun list and it even manages to have the one Phil Collins song I can actually abide.

I agree… it’s mostly on there because I was a big Miami Vice fan and the scene in which they used that song is iconic and had a huge influence on much of tv that followed. I can mostly do without Phil though…
Enjoy the mix!!
