Call me old fashioned
So I know I am pretty old fashioned on a lot of things. I was an “old” sort of person even before I got “old.” Case in point: Settling down at the ripe old age of 18 more than a decade ago. But honestly…what is with the holiday music?
I’ve been listening to the radio. Something I don’t do a lot of, but I thought I’d listen to some holiday music. I must have heard at least a half a dozen versions each of:
White Christmas
Silver Bells
Santa Claus is Coming to Town
The Little Drummer Boy
Most of which were horrible. Everyone has to put their own spin on it to make it different. Talk and sing it. Rock it up. Warble/Waver every note. Give me the classics. Sing it the way we’re all used to hearing it. Bring on Bing Crosby, Anne Murray, and the late and the greats. Play me the traditional holiday songs, done in that old classic style, and call me old fashioned.
