We polled some of the DOZ team to find out their favorite seasonal songs and, as you’d expect from a team that spans three continents, a dozen nationalities, and different end of year traditions, there was some pretty diverse responses. Traditional festive tunes, 80’s classics, a few different languages – when it comes to the DOZ team the tastes represent a pretty wide variety of tastes.
Here’s your DOZ Holiday Playlist for 2015!
Santa Claus Goes Straight to the Ghetto (Snoop Doggy Dogg)

I appreciate you sharing this blog post. Thanks Again. Cool.
I was curious if you ever considered changing the structure of your
site? Its very well written; I love what youve got to say.
But maybe you could a little more in the way of content so
people could connect with it better. Youve got an awful lot of text for only having 1 or 2 images.
Maybe you could space it out better?
I don’t think the title of your article matches the content lol. Just kidding, mainly because I had some doubts after reading the article. https://accounts.binance.com/fr/register-person?ref=W0BCQMF1
