I think 1st December is quite early enough and I don't want to hear Christmas songs after Boxing Day.Ĭan see the logic, now that Heart / Smooth / Capital UK are on D1 for out of area access, that the relays not carrying local content could now be replaced - in the first instance something from Global Player could take the slots in the new year, in the manner of Smooth Country which is already offered (in former Xfm/Gold slots) on many of the same muxes. The whole Black Friday concept marks the start of the US Xmas the day after Thanksgiving period so that’s the last Friday of Nov not the 1st! The most ridiculous comment is the US go into Xmas mode post Halloween! Have you forgotten Thanksgiving which as at least an equal with Xmas in the US and the meal arguably more important. Surely the more time, you spend building up to it, the more stress and then the more disappointing the actual day becomes. 3 weeks is plenty why so we need Christmas taking over a whole 2 months do people really have nothing better to do with their lives than worry about Xmas. Who gets Christmassy on 12th Nov? What’s wrong with 12th Dec? I really despair!Ĭhristmas is for 2 weeks before them week until NYD. I have heard Mud ‘It’ll be lonely this Christmas’ is off the playlist 🤣 Then six weeks of get ready for Christmas.
I prefer celebrating Bonfire Night, and observing Remembrance. Good luck finding the nog in August though.I don’t really get Christmassy until Nov 12th.Ĭelebrate Halloween, Boom it’s Christmas. And as a gift for you, we’ve assembled 65 Christmas songs so incredibly catchy, you just might want to listen all year round. But festive cheer has found its way into pop, hip-hop, R&B, metal, punk, indie… you name it. There is, of course, something of a Christmas canon: ‘All I Want for Christmas is You’ and ‘Fairytale of New York’ are great songs… which is good, as inevitably you’re going to hear them about a million times this holidays. But even more cynical later generations of pop have produced plenty of gold. There are plenty of keepers from the ‘40s-‘70s heyday of the Christmas record as an art form. Love them, hate them, or just accept them as a sort of immutable fact of life, Christmas songs are a thing, and as December 25 gets inexorably closer and closer they’re a thing that becomes increasingly inescapable.Īnd although there’s been a fair amount of disposable novelty rubbish written over the years, the reality is that a lot of Christmas songs are bangers.
