bear in mind, i think train's 'drops of jupiter' is one of the greatest songs ever recorded

Confession:

I absolutely, positively do not think Paul McCartney's 'Wonderful Christmas Time' is the worst holiday song ever released. Nothing about this song annoys me. Nothing. In fact, I just played it three times while writing what may possibly be the shortest blog post I've ever created here.

Make that five. I wanted to bask in the lyrics. Ding dong, ding dong, ding dong, ding.

Now, I'm not going to try and do something radical like try and convince you Scrooges out there who claim to hate this song that you're wrong (subliminal message insertion: YOU ARE), but I think if you were honest with yourself, deep down, you'd realize you like this song, too, and when you come to terms with that, we can hold each other gently and smile lovingly at each other, which I think was the only thing Paul wanted us to do when we heard this song. I give you this to listen to:



When you're ready, my arms are open. The mood is right. The spirit's up.
