Yep... I have to agree. The broadcasters should show more versatility in their offerings. The listeners are a varied bunch -- the music should be as well. Stuck in a rut, maybe... as we listen to the same old traditional music. Still, many of the oldies remain as some of my favorites.There are so many non traditional Christmas songs, it's an ironic shame broadcasters are so narrow...
Love that one. Joni is getting better, I hear. Life is short...Joni Mitchell ~ River Live

There's another version by Joni that's better than the one I posted. Gone too soon...Love that one. Joni is getting better, I hear. Life is short...
I believe we speak of this every year...
As a rule, I despise most of the Christmas music. Rut, indeed. It's the same few songs, on repeat, for a month at a time. For a music lover, it's tough. There are a couple of classics I like, but they are few and far between. We Three Kings, Good King Wenceslas...
I do have a spot in my grinchy old heart for the novelty songs as well, as Robert Earl's above...

Why do they say "there won't be snow in Africa this Christmas"? Have these morons never heard of Mount Kilimanjaro?Do they Know it's Christmas ~ Band Aid 1984
Who knows why for sure... I was thinking -- the lines (re: snow) were more for capturing the mood/sad/hard times those people were enduring and not actually referring to the weather/snow.Why do they say "there won't be snow in Africa this Christmas"? Have these morons never heard of Mount Kilimanjaro?
