We now live in a timeline where a song that was released 65 years ago is the new #1 song in the US.

This Christmas is another that I don't tire of, despite the multiple versions and plays. I can't even think of a version I can call bad, IMO. Except for Gloria Estefan's. Not her personally, but it DOESN'T use the horn riff at all!

Not to be cliché but more than anything else, I despise Mariah Carey’s Christmas songs with a passion. What’s the first thing I hear, thanks to my wife, on November 1? Yup. That’s grounds for divorce. It's TIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIME! WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH... ( xylophone riff)

I work in retail so I've had enough of pretty much all Christmas music and have been feeling that way for the past fortnight. They should play more Shonen Knife:

In the middle of a few hours of Christmas music, Hootsforce by Gloryhammer randomly played. I had no idea it was a Christmas song.

That’s grounds for divorce. It was kinda fun when she leaned into being a meme a bit. Now, I'm hearing her advertised as the "Queen of Christmas". Yeah, f*** that nonsense She still does the It's Time videos and they're cute, though. BTW, all due respect but Anne Murray is my queen of Christmas.

Has anyone ever heard of/owned this? a.co/d/0jwRcakBack when I traveled weekly to New York City, I got a copy at Virgin Megastore. Nice mix of well-known, British artists, and obscure tunes as well. It includes a holiday song about spacemen and vampires too!

I do Instacart, so I'm in Kroger on the daily. I've noticed that they're trying to diversify their holiday song selection. The problem is that it's programmed by someone whose musical tastes stopped evolving in 1977. Chicago! Carpenters! Freaking Leon Redbone! It's bad. If there is a newer artist, they're covering a song from the 70s.
There's one very strange exception though: one hit wonder A Great Big World doing "I Want a Hippopotamus form Christmas." Damn track goes hard.
On the Meijer end of things, I've noticed an uptick of "It Must Have Been Love" by Roxette. Major points for knowing your history, gang.

Looking at YouTube and sees Andy Williams “It’s The Most Wonderful Time of The Year.” www.youtube.com/watch?v=SFGC_YgeQ5wMan: “ANDY WILLIAMS?” Man #2:: “Aww, we don’t need to click on that link?” Man: “Oh yes, we do.” (Threatens to punch him.) (They click on the link.) Man #2: “Oh wow!” (Whistles.) Man #2: “I didn’t think you were going to click on the link but then BAM! SECOND ENCORE!” www.youtube.com/watch?v=pFb2qZfmh4M&t=32s

I have to again put a good word in for Ana Gasteyer's "Sugar and Booze" album. She's really good!!

This is a totally different head, TOTALLY. (Ironically if you buy the Square Pegs DVD set, this song is replaced in the Christmas episode)
