If you are looking to get into the Christmas spirit, then the simple solution is to stream some music. Whether it be in the car, in the store at home, nothing seems to add a little jingle in your step like listening to songs about old Kris Kringle. At home, my preference is to stream the Spotify channel on my Roku devices. I know my parents love to listen to songs from years past.
However, if you were wondering what the most popular tunes for Christmas 2020 are then let me help you out. Our friends at Spotify recently answered this question.
The top five Christmas songs in Canada are
- All I Want for Christmas Is You by Mariah Carey
- Last Christmas by Wham!
- It’s Beginning to Look a Lot like Christmas by Michael Bublé
- Santa Tell Me by Ariana Grande
- Mistletoe by Justin Bieber
And if you are looking to stream these tunes in style then perhaps this year consider getting yourself Roku‘s Streambar sound bar. The Roku Streambar is the ultimate 2-in-1 entertainment upgrade with 4K HDR streaming and cinematic sound for any TV with HDMI, including Roku TV™ models. You may ask yourself, why would I get a sound bar in comparison to a sound system?
Well soundbars are cost effective alternatives over more traditional home theatre speakers. They tend to take up less space, are easier to set up, and are often more affordable. Roku has taken this concept to the next level.
At 2.4 inches high, the Roku Streambar is an extremely compact sound bar. Although it is considerably smaller in size than a traditional sound bars, it’s designed to fill a room with space and can be used with even larger flat screen TVS. The Roku Streambar is also designed to quiet loud commercials automatically and you can control the Streambar by asking either Amazon Alexa or the Google Assistant.
And the great news is that with Spotify Connect, you can easily launch a favourite Christmas playlist from your smartphone
So in 2020, forget about letting it snow. Let is Stream with Roku’s Streambar.
