Best and Worst Christmas Songs!

'Tis the season to be sick of hearing the same godforsaken songs on every radio station, every store and just everywhere in general. Now there are several songs I'm not fond of... And some I actually like. I feel like there are more songs I don't like than ones I do like... But I'm listening to Christmas songs right now... so I don't really know why I'm complaining and yet listening to it... Idk. Anyway here is the list.

1) Santa Baby- duh I love this song! It's a super long Christmas list of ridiculously expensive stuff. I only really like the original Eartha Kitt version. (Did I ever tell you about the time Pierce Hawthorne slept with Eartha Kitt?) Anyhoo this is a good one.

2) The Chipmunk Christmas Song- This song just gets cuter and cuter every time I hear it! I like that they want a hoola hoop. I like Dave interjecting. I just love the chipmunks in general, and this song is just super super cute.

3) Silver and Gold- this one always feels like Christmas to me. Something about it I just totally love. I like listening to this while looking at decorations because it's about the decorations. And in the Rudolf cartoon I just think its cute that they take a break from the story for the snowman to sing a song. I like.

4) Baby it's cold outside- I love this song. Particularly when Zooey Deschannel sings it. Either on the elf soundtrack or with she and him. Just good. All around.

5) You're a mean one Mr.Grinch- this always manages to put a smile on my face whenever I hear it on the radio. I love the book The Grinch, I love the cartoon version, and I love the Jim Carey version (which I always call the Drew Carey version lol). This is a random one to hear on the radio too, so I think it makes it extra special.

Now the worst... This is fun! No order here, but I'm going to save the creme de la crap for the last.

1) Under the Mistletoe by Justin Bieber- I never really hated this song, but my cousin posted on Facebook that no Christmas song should have the lyrics "Shawty with you" in it. She has a point. Actually no song in general should have the words "Shawty with you" in it. If a guy called me his "Shawty" I don't think I could ever take him seriously. Yeah I'm short, but I am no Shawty. Lol.

2) Christmastime is here again by Ringo Starr- a few years ago Bath and Body Works was selling g Christmas CDs. They were good CDs, but they happened to have this gem on it and it was so terrible I could never forget it. Basically Ringo Starr was just saying "Christmastime is here again" over and over and over again and it sounded awful. Also some random lyrics that made no sense at all were in it. I just youtubed this to make sure it was real, and apparently it's a Beatles song? It's still pretty damn awful, but again I don't like the Beatle's so I may be missing something. It's just bad you should hear it.

3) Grandma got run over by a Reindeer- seriously? What the hell were these people on when they wrote this song! 1) Santa's been driving that sleigh for quite some time now. I think he knows how to park a sleigh and to look for wild Grandma's passing the way. 2) Why are the kid and Grandpa not more upset about Grandma's death? They just seem to be excited about finding out that Santa is real.

You know on second thought, maybe this song isn't just written by someone on drugs. Maybe the writer of this song had to deal with a tragedy at Christmas time one year. Maybe he was trying to teach kids that even though it's Christmas, bad things still happen. Maybe he's trying to say that even if something tragic happens, it's okay to still believe in Santa. That's kind of deep.

It was probably just drugs, but that's a thought.

4) The Little Drummer Boy by Justin Bieber- This is one of my favorite songs for sentimental reasons. It was my great grandfathers favorite and whenever it comes on the radio my mom says that and she remembers him and it's a really nice moment. Justin Bieber completely ruined it by putting in a remix. I'm not someone easily offended by things, but this is pretty offensive. I mean the little Drummer boy played that song for Jesus when he was born. Whenever I hear the remix I always think "wow I just don't think Jesus would like that. No, that's not true, but it still seems disrespectful to a more religious song. It is catchy and stuff, but it doesn't really capture what the song is about. At ALL! lol.

5) Peppermint Winter by Owl City- holy crap Owl City is the worst band in the entire world. Okay no, I like the Oreo commercial and their song on the Wreck it Ralph soundtrack... But that's all they should do. It's like they put a bunch of winter words into a hat and picked them out at random and put them into a song. What the actual hell. It's bad. Go listen to it now. It's that bad.

Disney Store Closing Haul

So if you read my post from yesterday- you know that I love The Disney Store, but it is unfortunately closing. I did pick up some things from the store that I thought I'd share with you guys! I did get a couple of t shirts. One is a Star Wars shirt, which is technically a men's shirt but I thought it looked really cool and I don't like that Disney doesn't carry the same things for men and for women. For the most part they look unisex to me and a lot of their men's stuff has characters I like better. Like the star wars shirt for women was grey with pink lettering and had no pictures, but the mens shirt had a really cool metallic silver logo on black clothing with pictures of all the new characters and Luke inside of the letters... much cooler! So I got that! The other shirt I got is really funny and it has Sleeping Beauty on it and it says "I Woke Up Like This." Which I really liked! Super cute and funny and my niece likes it when I wear shirts with c...

Scribbles About Life: 3.10.16

Soooo... I don't really want to post about my day... but I don't really want to post anything else either. I started writing something about female characters in movies and TV... but I just didn't like what I was writing and... idk... I was a blog writing machine this week and now I feel defeated. I wrote a ton on Monday and Tuesday and now I just don't feel like doing a post today... but I want to write still... So I'll talk about things that I guess are on my mind lately... Idk. So I got this Revlon Ultra HD Matte Lipcolor... and for some reason... I'm addicted to the way that it smells. Idk why, it smells like cherry medicine... but I also sort of like it. Its more cherry than medicine... and I can't smell it on my lips... but Idk. I keep smelling it in the tube. I got some cute stuff from American Eagle yesterday too! I got a dress and a romper... I do not own any Rompers... except this one... but it looked good on me and it didn't make me look f...

Throwback Thursday: 13 Going On 30

So I watched this on VH1 around Christmas Time because it was on... they really need to bring this movie to Netflix because it's pretty fantastic and VH1 doesn't get the whole thing. I didn't catch the very beginning... but I did watch most of it from around the time when Matty gives her the Dream House... so sweet. It was a little weird to watch this movie because when it came out, I was 13 or almost 13... and now I'm closer to being 30... but I still felt more connected to the 13 year old Jenna instead of the adults in the movie. Like I'm not totally sure when I turned almost 30... but I don't like it. I'm still 13 year old Jenna who likes the same music as when I was 13 and has kind of the same style as I did then... I don't know... its just kind of a weird thing and I was freaking out a little bit from it. This is also the movie that introduced me to one of my favorite actresses, Judy Greer! I love Judy Greer, she's so funny and great and s...
