'Harm's Way'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I'm not fond of any song I have to listen to more than three times between entering a store and getting through checkout. Thank goodness for online shopping.
My favorite Christmas song since childhood is In the Bleak Midwinter. It may not be climatologically accurate for Bethlehem, but it sure works for northern Michigan. I also like Angels We Have Heard on High for the "GloooOOOOoooOOOOooOOOOo-ria!" bits.
don't think I've ever had salmon on pizza before now.
No review on how it tasted?
If you've gotta have Glorias, I like "Ding Dong Merrily on High" over "Angels We Have Heard on High."
I like some of the more obscure ones. "Once in Royal David's City", "A Virgin Most Pure", "Angels From the Realms of Glory", "See Amid the Winter's Snow."
I like some of the more mournful ones, like "Coventry Carol" and "The Cherry Tree Carol." But I think my favorite Christmas song is "The Lord of the Dance" from The Christmas Revels, which is quite defiantly un-mournful.
Oh, Cherry Tree Carol is great.
"Christmas Wrapping" is fun. I was a teenager when "Grandma Got Run Over By a Reindeer" came out. The first Christmas or two, it was a funny antidote to excessive sentimentality. (Welcome to the psyche of the male teenager.) However, it quickly became tedious and annoying.
I'm just not much on Christmas music generally. But I really like "Silver Bells."
O Holy Night is playing right now! Mariah Carey, not bad. I decided to turn on the music channel on the tv. Trumps the news cycle that was on for sure.
I'm inordinately fond of Mariah Carey's "All I Want for Christmas Is You," especially the version with Jimmy Fallon and the Roots.
I love Christmas carols, both singing them and listening to them, including LDB and "Carol of the Bells." I have happily entered the randomly-start-singing-carols phase of the season, but have not yet heard LDB this year. I think my favorite modern rock carol is "Father Christmas" by Yes.
Who is it said "Wonderful Christmastime" is an abomination? So true.
I am fine with LDB but now I ha e "wonderful Christmas time" in my head and blame you.
Was supposed to have an 8am meeting but got home at almost midnight from a trip. Woke up to see meeting postponed, hit snooze...except no, actually turned alarm off. Woke up just in time for 9am meeting. Yay? Now to get shit done.
