As soon as Halloween was over, Mariah Carey declared it is Christmastime! Since she is the Queen of Christmas, radio stations started playing Christmas Carols.
While she is the Queen, one of the Princes disagrees with her. Josh Groban wrote, “It’s too early for Christmas music. Especially mine. Stop it.”
So are you Team Mariah or Team Groban when it comes to when we should start playing the music of this season? I am Grobs on this one. We will get enough of it between Thanksgiving and December 25th.
Do you know what Christmas really needs? It needs another song from Mariah Carey for the holiday. Therefore, she is giving us one. This Friday, she is releasing Fall In Love At Christmas with Khalid.
While it won’t topple her song All I Want For Christmas Is You, the new Christmas Carol will give it some competition.
Netflix added 17 original Christmas films to their streaming site this year, and I bet you want to know how many times they mentioned the holiday in their movies. They wanted to know too.
Therefore, they got a bunch of people together to count and edit all of them together into one video. So, how many times did Dolly Parton and the others say the word? 200! That is a lot of Christmases.
As I said, they only streamed 17 new features this year. Imagine if someone did that for the Hallmark, Lifetime, and Up movies? They would be editing the video until next Christmas.
Disney Channel asked Daveed Diggs for an early Hanukkah gift, and he gave it to them. Then he told them that he wants a Puppy for Hanukkah. Actually, he sang it to them.
“I was honored when Disney Channel approached me to come up with a fresh Hanukkah tune and embraced the opportunity to share my love of music and a little piece of my culture,” said Diggs.
Adam Sandler finally has some competition in the Hanukkah song business. I hope that this becomes an annual tradition for the Diggs and Disney.
Let’s be honest, 2020 has sucked balls. And I am not talking cheese balls type of suck, worse than that. I don’t know what that means either.
Anyways, Rick Astley was going for a walk with his wife, Lene Bausager, and he decided that we needed a happy song to end the year. Therefore, he went into his studio, wrote a few songs, and finally decided to record Love This Christmas. Today, he released the holiday tune that we are going to sing this year and for many more to come. That is if we can make it to 2021.
How can you listen to this single and not feel the spirit of the season take over you? I am ready to decorate the house with tinsel, colorful lights, and mistletoe that won’t see any action again this year.
Seriously, Astley is like the feeling you get on Christmas morning when you go to the tree to open up all of your presents. He is pure joy. Now, we can box that feeling up with this happy melody.
