What Are You Listening To CHRISTMAS EDITION

I noticed in the coffee shop people were recommending certain versions of Christmas songs so I thought maybe we could post them all in one place.
I may loathe Christmas but I do enjoy some of the music.

Here's my first contribution. Yes nearly an hour of Pearl Jam Christmas songs. Pearl Jam always did a Christmas Single for their fan club members. Then as the years passed they got a little lax and the single came out later and later and became known as the holiday single, then we referred to it as the Easter single. This year they've decided to discontinue it and I'm pretty sad. They did some really great songs. Some were remakes of classics, some were their own songs, all were pretty good.

Myn Lyking (Middle-English Trad.) - King's College Choir

I'd never heard of this until my husband introduced me to it. The boy's soprano voices are angelic. Hubby sang it when he was 8 years old in the choir at Wells Cathedral, with the girl he later married.

I always say it isn't Christmas until I hear Elvis Christmas music. My dad always played Elvis Christmas music during the holidays so to me it really isn't Christmas until I hear at least one Elvis song. This is one of my favorites.
Santa Bring My Baby Back To Me-Elvis

I may have inadvertently started that particular digression in the coffee shop.
So: Angels From the Realms of Glory, performed by the Mormon Tabernacle Chior and Orchestra.
This is the version that always makes me cry: with Craig Jessup, conducting

The last one playing in my car was "It Came Upon a Midnight Clear."

I really like classic, religious Christmas music, even though I'm not a Christian. I also really like the Boston Pops's versions and medleys of the secular Christmas music too.

I actively dislike most Christmas music. It's forced on me everywhere I go at this time of year. My wife wears "Oh Holy Night" like some kind of badge,but I'm going to turn off my classical music station until after Christmas because they've gone to all Christmas music. I'll also let them know that a) I'm a donor, and b) I don't like it.

I do too, actually. In fact most years I don't listen to it until a few days before. Sometimes I wait until I'm driving up to see my family.

I was on one of the units yesterday, and the unit secretary had the radio on the Country station, which starts playing Christmas music about the first week of November. The song that came on while I was trying to write some notes annoyed me so much I had to pull up my favorite just to compensate.

(don't get me started on The 12 Days of Christmas)
 
I got WHAM!med today. "Last Christmas", despite not being a Christmas song, is a plague during the season. It's not even the worst offender when it comes to sappy '80s stuff. But for the past fifteen or so years it has accumulated the same charm as Chinese water torture.

Along with "Wind of Change" by the Scorpions, "Last Christmas" is one of the few songs I actively avoid. And I've managed it for most of November and December - until my favorite British '80s radio station dropped it out of the blue.

Fuck you, Absolute Radio.

My Christmas music this year will probably be "To Drive The Cold Winter Away" by Loreena McKennitt.
Or "Eaten Back to Life" by Cannibal Corpse.

I'm sick of Christmas. Especially all the adverts starting with a variation of "'Tis the season..." only to end with "buy our shit." If it's the season, where are my gifts, you dicks?

Enough ranting. Be merry, Litsters.

Christmas Bells (or Snoopy vs. The Red Barron) by The Royal Guardsmen has always been a favorite of mine. It's not a song that gets played to death in stores or on the radio. In fact I usually go several years in a row without ever hearing it "in the wild".

That was fun.

For the last few years a local group has performed "The Christmas Truce of 1914." Apparently early in that war people thought it would be over and they'd all walk away. On the days leading up to Christmas, the forces held fire. Fighters crossed lines, gifts were exchanged and games were played.

The performance is partially carols, and partially reading of the letters home from the men who lived it.
