I'm already at the point of going into zombie-rage and wreaking destruction all around if I hear any more Christmas music. My work has been playing it for three weeks already...

I just said in another thread I have to hear John and Yoko sing "Happy Christmas, War Is Over" every year... would be nice... esp. this year, huh?


Tho I also really love The Pretenders "2000 Miles". I've always thought it was a beaufitul song and it just has that feel of a classic Christmas tune to it. [img]smileys/smiley1.gif[/img]

Awwwyou too, Jenn![img]smileys/smiley31.gif[/img] Are you having a traditional dinner this year? My friend was here earlier and they're having chop suey at his mother-in-laws! For Thanskgiving?! He has my sympathy...

Yeah, we always have the full out meal...along with some unfortunate
traditional dishes grandma always contributes. But I can't wait
to see my family though. How about you? All I can see is
potatoes for days and days, no turkey for me...must save all available
space in here for potatoes.[img]smileys/smiley9.gif[/img]

Yeah I'm cooking the traditional meal here at my house. Turkey (mmm), stuffing (mm), candied yams (mmm), pumpkin pie with whipped cream (mmm mmm mmm!) etc. Is the green bean casserole with french fried onions one of those unfortunate trad dishes, cos I'm cooking that too! [img]smileys/smiley4.gif[/img]


Have fun with your family on the holiday Jenn! [img]smileys/smiley31.gif[/img](sorry I'm in a huggy mood[img]smileys/smiley9.gif[/img])

[img]smileys/smiley31.gif[/img]I'm always in a huggy mood Sis...no
actually it's much worse than the green bean casserole. It's a
traditional Romanian dish called...hmm I've never had to write it out
before so I will spell it the way it sounds Galushka...Romanian for
blahhhhh-yuck-ew-going-to-die-now-disgusting. Have fun with your
family too.[img]smileys/smiley9.gif[/img]

No I don't think I ever heard sweet baby James' version [img]smileys/smiley2.gif[/img]I looove Joni, tho! You have very good musical (classic American folk rock) taste for such a young man from Germany! [img]smileys/smiley4.gif[/img]


edit: hey you like Crosby, Stills and Nash, too? They were all in together with Joni and Neil for awhile there. Edited by: SisterMidnight

if you want to hear james taylors version of that song you can find it here: www.jamestaylor.com

crosby, stills,nash and young are great, too! i love "4 way street"! i guess everybody of them had a relationship with joni! [img]smileys/smiley1.gif[/img] well, the sixties... neil young wrote a song for her "sweet joni"!

[img]smileys/smiley2.gif[/img][img]smileys/smiley36.gif[/img]yeah you really do have great taste in music, cool young german!


oh i really hate xmas. not xmas eve itself, which can be an ok night with good food, but OH! how i hate the xmas hype!!!


i guess my favourite xmas song would have to be
hawksley workman - merry christmas (i love you)


cause it's not really about xmas, it's about life and death and love and sadness. and enevn though there's a religious theme in it, and it's a bit sticky xmas'y, i still love that song:
If god takes you
He leaves a huge footprint of love
And kindness behind that was where you once stood

I know you're afraid
To get on the plane after what happened that day
And selfishly I want you here in my way

But animals come
And animals go
Love is just a laundry line we hang on until

We're dried out by the sun
And when you think your turn is done
You end up getting dirty and it's all again begun

Now words I think are just
A noisy dirty wind
Makes the trouble we get in
So why do we speak

Now we made another war
That's what men are good for
Men with stupid insecurities
And not a lot more

And satisfied they tried
It's written about again
But who the hell reads history
Apparently not men

I guess nothing's guaranteed
Except the politics of need
Did the romans see the ship go down
Or were they asleep

And I shouldn't expect to live
And I shouldn't expect to die
But I wouldn't mind being beside
You dear on that laundry line to dry

And for my grandma and my brother
My father and my mother
And you my sweetest lover
To you all I will say
Merry Christmas I love you and god is above you
Merry Christmas I love you and god is above you
Merry Christmas I love you

"christmas time is here" by the velvet guaraldi trio is absolutely classic. actually, anything from the charlie brown christmas special is enough to get me into the spirit.


and a few times a year i have to listen to "bizarre christmas incident" by ben folds:


"santa, he's a big, fat f**k
went down the chimney, got his fat ass stuck.
oh honey, call the lawyers fast.
mrs. claus is going to sue our ass"


those listening invariably come after a work shift filled with listening to the same dozen or so christmas songs piped over the dmx. [img]smileys/smiley11.gif[/img]
