Part 2 - can you have too many advent calendars?

Way back on 3 December, which seems like ages ago but really isn't, I mentioned I might have another advent surprise to share. This one is an annual institution in our family, do you like it?
It's a massive Father Christmas, with pockets on both sides, one for each day in December. None of those fiddly pockets that only hold one sweet. This is advent calendar taken to the next level. 
It was a wee bit delayed this year, as my mum stuffs this with goodies and she pulled a muscle in her arm / side which made it tricky to buy / wrap the gifts. But it's here now! Mum won't mind me saying she's quite a stubborn lady and on this occasion we have benefitted massively from that determination. Thank you mum. Also thank you for being possibly only one of two people reading my ordinary blog. 
This morning the calendar revealed this, a present for the younger household members:
Can you remember the first of these compilations? I can, which probably explains why I only recognised six of the 46 songs in this one. Six! And two of those are cover versions.  Not sure whether to be embarrassed, proud or relieved? 
I finish work tomorrow for the Christmas break. I feel so lucky, I can't wait. 
Night night see you soon.
