IT'S CHRISTMAS TIME EVERYONE, WOOHOOOOOOOOOOO! ... -ahem- Sorry, couldn't contain myself there. Anyway! What are some of your favorite holiday-themed jingles and jams? Personally, Christmas songs are some of my favorites. No matter the time of year, I can always pull out a Christmas song and get in the mood. Some of my favorites would be "All I want for Christmas", "Last Christmas", and "Let It Snow". <3 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yXQViqx6GMY Share some of your favorites below.
We listen to this every time we go Christmas tree hunting, it has been a classic for years, since I was very little https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uD5pqOsW1PU
I don't know about you guys... but Trans-Siberian Orchestra is my jam, but more specifically Carol of the Bells. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sCabI3MdV9g
Comin' from mah boy Krispy Kreme Froggy Fresh, the best Christmas rap there is. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4feIwig2AtA CENA SWAGG Also got my man Wesley Willis laying it out plain. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gJS0r55ofEA Rest in peace Wesley, you're in my heart forever.
@[member="TheBlazingInfernape"] I am both surprised and happy that someone linked it before I had a chance to. Trans-Siberian Orchestra is really the king of Christmas music in my opinion. I was lucky enough to be able to see them perform live a few weeks ago, and it was absolutely amazing. That Carol of the Bells cover has an interesting story behind it. The song's name upon release was Christmas Eve/Sarajevo 12/24. The song is intended to tell the story of an elderly musician who returned to his hometown, Sarajevo, at the height of the Bosnian War, finding his city destroyed. Legend has it that every night, this man sat atop a pile of rubble and played Christmas carols on his cello, even as the shelling reduced his home further into nothingness. Further reading: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christmas_Eve/Sarajevo_12/24 Since my favorite Christmas song has already been posted, I'll go with my second favorite. It's also a Trans-Siberian Orchestra song, but it has a very different tone than the previous song. https://youtu.be/JhXSLSltWvY
@[member="8542Madness"], but of course! TSO is hands down the king of Christmas music. Everyday in December, when I need something done or I just want something to casually listen to while I am playing a game or spriting, I put Carol of the Bells on repeat. It never gets old.
I have the greatest holiday jam of all. It is a timeless classic. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RmLqPX0Ux9A
Story time: I HATED Carol of The Bells for the longest time up until I heard it live the first time. I guess it was the whole experience from going to a concert for the first time that turned me around. And face it, COTB is SO much better live. But, to come back on topic: My song is The Christmas Song by Alvin and The Chipmunks. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SAS_JoUw7wA I'm sorry it may not work for everyone, but I couldn't find one that wasn't the movie version. I used to have the Christmas album on cassette, but who knows what happened to it. Alvin and The Chipmunks have always been a part of my life and this song just takes me back, yo.
