'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.
