Have a Holly, Jolly Christmas

Posted on December 20, 2016 by Dave Alexander (formerly ukuleledave)

I love Christmas music, and Burl Ives was a musical genius, but if I hear ‘Holly, Jolly Christmas’ one more time, I’m going to flip.  

It is the ‘You Light Up My Life’ and ‘La Bamba’ of Christmas tunes.

    Front flip, or back flip? With 1/2 twist or full twist? Heads or tails? The devil is in the details … or in your car, buretor.

    Not one of my faves, but I don’t mind it. The one I hate is Paul McCartney’s execrable “Wonderful Christmas Time.” It’s a sonorous, tuneless, and utterly joyless dirge that seems to be written and performed with sly contempt for the very concept of Christmas.

    Christmas is the only holiday with a true soundtrack of hundreds of songs. How odd is it that most of the music was performed by people now dead? Outside country and a very few pop/easy listening artists, I hear Bing, Dean and company.
