5 Christmas Songs From 5 Bands That You Might Not Expect
It’s after Thanksgiving, so I can officially roll out the Christmas cheer and not feel bad about inflicting it upon others. In that vein, here are 5 of my favorite Christmas songs sung by artists you might not expect had it in them.
Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas, everyone. Hope you and your families had a wonderful day.
Smells Like Christmas
The tree is up and the rest of our decorations are on their way up too. The temp is hovering in the low 40’s/high 30’s during the days. It finally feels like December.

Merry Christmas to all, and to all a Good, errrm, Morning!
Good morning, and a merry Christmas to you all. Christmas Day dawned bright and warm here in Dallas and, from the looks of things, it’s unseasonably warm back up north of the Mason-Dixon, as well. Alas, no White Christmas. If only we had signed the Kyoto Protocol! *wink*
Christmas Props
- Thanks go out to my brother-in-law for the Relient K CD, as well as the superlative Batman: Year One. Frank Miller’s dark take on Batman’s origins makes for very compelling reading and provided obvious inspiration for Batman Begins.
- Speaking of Batman Begins, thanks go out to my mother- and father-in-law for the DVD of such, as well as the DVD of Serenity. It don’t get much better’n that.
- Thanks go out to my sister-in-law for the kickin’ new “do” and all the styling products that accompany it. Now I can look like something other than an utter schlub at work and at play. *grin*
Christmas Admissions
A couple guilty Christmastime confessions:
- I tear up at the end of It’s A Wonderful Life every year. You know the scene: The entire town turns out to donate money to George Bailey in order to keep him out of the pokey. I get a little choked up even thinking about it.
- I don’t care what anyone says, the first two Home Alone movies are works of near Three Stooges level comedic genius.
Christmas Tip
To Brad, and any other recipients of Video iPods this year: take a look at No-Frills DVD2iPod. You may enjoy what you find.
Merry Christmas!
