We spent Christmas in Australia one year, and it was weird: nothing to do with your fellow countrymen, just that I've never spent Christmas in bright, warm sunshine looking at traditional Christmas decorations (big artificial tree in Melbourne and inflatable Santas, sleighs and so forth in front gardens in the Blue Mountains) and people going home in a state of merriment from office parties, on the last Manly Ferry of the night. Wonderful, but bizarre to someone from the Frozen North

what do they put, musically, on the radio over there pre Xmas?

Here, there is a lot of orchesteral and then, near the holiday there is some choral

To be honest, I didn't really notice: we didn't have a radio with us and we were outdoors a lot, so mostly we heard waves breaking on the beach and beer bottles being opened

Classical, country, jazz, rock, popular, depending on what radio station you listen to.

Some xmas songs are played during the day on various radio stations.

Micheal Crawford was belting this xmas song out on the local radio here.

I like this version.
