00:00:54 ◼   ► four Christmas songs & Christmas songs

00:00:56 ◼   ► are kind of diverse here because there

00:00:58 ◼   ► are lots of different versions of

00:01:00 ◼   ► Christmas songs and as we all know is

00:01:02 ◼   ► especially some of the old favorites

00:01:04 ◼   ► some versions are so so bad and other

00:01:06 ◼   ► versions are really pretty great so I'm

00:01:09 ◼   ► kind of excited to hear Mike's list

00:01:11 ◼   ► apparently so do you want me to do I

00:01:13 ◼   ► don't think mark was prepared alright so

00:01:15 ◼   ► in number four for me is so I've picked

00:01:18 ◼   ► the song that everybody knows but a

00:01:20 ◼   ► specific version mm-hmm so the song is

00:01:23 ◼   ► it's beginning to look a lot like

00:01:24 ◼   ► Christmas but it's the Michael Buble

00:01:27 ◼   ► version Michael Buble in my family over

00:01:30 ◼   ► like the last few years Michael Buble at

00:01:32 ◼   ► Christmas has become a bit of a

00:01:34 ◼   ► tradition thing like it's over multiple

00:01:37 ◼   ► presents like I bought my mom tickets to

00:01:38 ◼   ► see him for a Christmas gift one year

00:01:40 ◼   ► and then bought her a CD is cuz I you

00:01:43 ◼   ► know we weren't gonna see him on

00:01:44 ◼   ► Christmas Day so I put like the tickets

00:01:46 ◼   ► inside of a CD and now every year like

00:01:48 ◼   ► another Michael Buble album cuz he

00:01:50 ◼   ► releases Christmas albums every year

00:01:52 ◼   ► because he is a marketing genius and

00:01:54 ◼   ► they just keep appearing more and more

00:01:56 ◼   ► in the house and I love this song but I

00:01:59 ◼   ► do really really love his version of

00:02:00 ◼   ► this song

00:02:02 ◼   ► ah his voice is undeniable I love

00:02:06 ◼   ► Michael Buble good

00:02:08 ◼   ► you can't deny that's his voice is gonna

00:02:09 ◼   ► clean this is very Buble mm-hmm that's

00:02:19 ◼   ► pretty good

00:02:35 ◼   ► alright that's a pretty traditional pic

00:02:37 ◼   ► yeah yeah I wanted to have one

00:02:39 ◼   ► traditional because the rest of them

00:02:40 ◼   ► then they're not traditional okay so I

00:02:43 ◼   ► wonder like a traditional Christmas song

00:02:45 ◼   ► well does anyone else have any

00:02:45 ◼   ► traditional Christmas songs that they're

00:02:47 ◼   ► throwing out there what do you mean by

00:02:49 ◼   ► traditional this is like a classic right

00:02:51 ◼   ► okay so the hills that Christmas songs

00:02:53 ◼   ► come like from various decades and

00:02:56 ◼   ► they've all become classics yeah well so

00:02:58 ◼   ► this one like so this song like that is

00:03:01 ◼   ► a Michael bublĂ©'s version of a song

00:03:03 ◼   ► that is super old like everyone's done

00:03:05 ◼   ► that so basically all classic is like

00:03:09 ◼   ► right so I have a few of those actually

00:03:11 ◼   ► this is Adina by the way for anybody

00:03:14 ◼   ► who's wondering who this is podcaster

00:03:18 ◼   ► well I feel bad to go from mine because

00:03:28 ◼   ► which is my four and that's I feel quite

00:03:32 ◼   ► bad about this one for some reason but

00:03:34 ◼   ► it's Santa Baby Earth sake

00:03:41 ◼   ► oh the original there she is she's right

00:03:44 ◼   ► there right in front so let's listen up

00:03:47 ◼   ► like Santa this is a good pic I would

00:03:56 ◼   ► not have guessed this pick for you I

00:03:57 ◼   ► would not have guessed this I just loved

00:04:00 ◼   ► the shameless request for expensive

00:04:03 ◼   ► gifts and in my mind

00:04:08 ◼   ► and in my mind it's this type of Marilyn

00:04:11 ◼   ► Monroe lady who's super hot and but

00:04:14 ◼   ► talks in a baby voice well obviously and

00:04:16 ◼   ► it's just I love it

00:04:18 ◼   ► I just find it for Christmas requests

00:04:23 ◼   ► for expensive gifts and sexy yeah it's

00:04:30 ◼   ► just a wholesome wholesome I like it

00:04:34 ◼   ► that was a surprise Adina awesome all

00:04:37 ◼   ► right my number four is Christmas by

00:04:40 ◼   ► Blues Traveler I like the songs just

00:04:43 ◼   ► called Christmas is that it didn't even

00:04:45 ◼   ► bother it is they they just didn't even

00:04:47 ◼   ► care there's like a Christmas niche the

00:04:49 ◼   ► Christmas song I made so you will buy it

00:04:51 ◼   ► at Christmas to fish have any Christmas

00:04:53 ◼   ► songs I don't think so

00:04:55 ◼   ► I like it cause it's super wordy okay

00:05:00 ◼   ► this is pretty good you know that songs

00:05:04 ◼   ► do when it's is from like what years is

00:05:12 ◼   ► we're cuz this is sound like Christmas

00:05:15 ◼   ► for me

00:05:15 ◼   ► no no soul says Christmas in it yeah I

00:05:19 ◼   ► think maybe I like it because it sounds

00:05:21 ◼   ► just like Blues Traveler and non lady

00:05:23 ◼   ► Christmas yeah I don't know Blues

00:05:24 ◼   ► Traveler they all sound like this right

00:05:27 ◼   ► 90's band yeah you probably know that

00:05:29 ◼   ► cover those songs

00:05:30 ◼   ► it sounds playing it sounds a little

00:05:32 ◼   ► better naked ladies ish yep

00:05:34 ◼   ► say narrow it

00:05:44 ◼   ► yeah that is the Christmas there we go

00:05:47 ◼   ► sleigh bells in there that's what you

00:05:50 ◼   ► need that that's what makes it great oh

00:05:52 ◼   ► and I like it because it's like a

00:05:53 ◼   ► regular song it's pretty upbeat mm-hmm

00:05:57 ◼   ► got some rockin elements to it so that

00:06:03 ◼   ► you feel it's Christmas when you hear it

00:06:04 ◼   ► I do now so I'm not a big fan of

00:06:09 ◼   ► Christmas music I really don't care so I

00:06:13 ◼   ► have a whole bunch of Christmas songs

00:06:14 ◼   ► that are done by people like I have an

00:06:18 ◼   ► album called like punk rock Christmas or

00:06:21 ◼   ► something it just it's totally it's not

00:06:24 ◼   ► really Christmas but it's songs and

00:06:27 ◼   ► music that I like doing Christmas songs

00:06:29 ◼   ► or and I especially love the original

00:06:31 ◼   ► Christmas songs that are new each year I

00:06:33 ◼   ► always always seek those out so like on

00:06:35 ◼   ► that like this isn't in my list but

00:06:37 ◼   ► there is a song it's a horrible ballad

00:06:39 ◼   ► by a band called East 17 you will not

00:06:41 ◼   ► know this and it's the impostor for

00:06:48 ◼   ► Christmas songs it doesn't say anything

00:06:51 ◼   ► about Christmas winter or anything but

00:06:53 ◼   ► somehow it got launched in 1994 I have

00:06:56 ◼   ► this noted say another day it's the name

00:06:59 ◼   ► of the song and basically the reason

00:07:00 ◼   ► this is a Christmas song is in the UK

00:07:03 ◼   ► there is like a tradition of Christmas

00:07:05 ◼   ► number one like that whatever song is

00:07:07 ◼   ► number one at Christmases I could soup a

00:07:09 ◼   ► big deal

00:07:10 ◼   ► so you can end up with songs that were

00:07:12 ◼   ► just released in late December become

00:07:15 ◼   ► Christmas songs because they were

00:07:17 ◼   ► Christmas number ones and so if that's a

00:07:19 ◼   ► lot like what Love Actually is about

00:07:20 ◼   ► right kind of yeah cuz it love actually

00:07:22 ◼   ► like so that's the whole idea I he

00:07:24 ◼   ► continues to make money forever because

00:07:26 ◼   ► if you have a song it's not one of

00:07:27 ◼   ► Christmas it's always on compilations

00:07:29 ◼   ► but this song has nothing to do with

00:07:31 ◼   ► Christmas

00:07:31 ◼   ► at all it's kind of like a nationwide

00:07:33 ◼   ► American Idol but for Christmas songs

00:07:35 ◼   ► yeah well now like X Factor is planned

00:07:38 ◼   ► to get the Christmas number one it's

00:07:44 ◼   ► horrific but it made it to no Christmas

00:07:47 ◼   ► number one right it was horrific when

00:07:48 ◼   ► you listen to it now in a few countries

00:07:50 ◼   ► including yours I assume for that no

00:07:53 ◼   ► these do down here when is this from the

00:07:57 ◼   ► nine

00:07:58 ◼   ► yeah you could tell by those hat yeah

00:08:00 ◼   ► and the duh I think they're all dressed

00:08:02 ◼   ► in white I'm gonna get out so good

00:08:04 ◼   ► touching themselves or singing this mic

00:08:12 ◼   ► is lip-syncing right now

00:08:26 ◼   ► there's a pickup you know mention of

00:08:42 ◼   ► Christmas winter anything and this is on

00:08:45 ◼   ► your list Edina

00:08:46 ◼   ► it's my imposter song in the way cuz it

00:08:50 ◼   ► we're googling song for songs today

00:08:53 ◼   ► lists and compilations this actually

00:08:56 ◼   ► features a long a lot of very well-known

00:08:58 ◼   ► it's Christmas songs this is one of the

00:09:00 ◼   ► biggest like this is one of the biggest

00:09:02 ◼   ► non Christmas songs that because this

00:09:05 ◼   ► was number one for like I'm like two

00:09:07 ◼   ► months after Christmas and it comes back

00:09:09 ◼   ► every Christmas yep what would make

00:09:12 ◼   ► somebody want to listen to that more

00:09:13 ◼   ► than once

00:09:14 ◼   ► nostalgia totally nostalgia like cuz

00:09:18 ◼   ► they're laughing that old right well the

00:09:20 ◼   ► nineties it's old enough yeah yes but

00:09:23 ◼   ► like when it was new what many people

00:09:25 ◼   ► want to listen to it enough to make it a

00:09:26 ◼   ► classic this was the style of music in

00:09:28 ◼   ► UK at the time like boy band power

00:09:30 ◼   ► ballads they're something we're in the

00:09:32 ◼   ► water or something I mean Lauren mm-hmm

00:09:34 ◼   ► like Christmas in the UK fills that

00:09:38 ◼   ► everything bad and Keach is actually

00:09:41 ◼   ► embraced like the ugly sweaters bad

00:09:43 ◼   ► music it's just Christmas yeah we go for

00:09:46 ◼   ► terrible traditions from two thousand

00:09:51 ◼   ► nineteen ninety-seven so yeah that fits

00:09:53 ◼   ► of a ninety song as well because that

00:09:54 ◼   ► was very like it had that like that

00:09:57 ◼   ► isn't the son of an American money song

00:09:59 ◼   ► and he's seventeen is a UK ninety song

00:10:01 ◼   ► yeah I think I'm gonna stick with

00:10:02 ◼   ► America on that one yeah I think you

00:10:04 ◼   ► should yeah I mean I hate to tell you

00:10:05 ◼   ► that there's there's been some decades

00:10:07 ◼   ► where the where the US was woefully

00:10:09 ◼   ► behind other countries in quality of

00:10:11 ◼   ► music but I'm pretty sure that in this

00:10:13 ◼   ► instance I think I think we were all

00:10:17 ◼   ► right yeah compared to at least the UK

00:10:19 ◼   ► in the 90s all right Marco what's your

00:10:21 ◼   ► number for mister prepared over there

00:10:23 ◼   ► with nothing I have nothing my my list

00:10:26 ◼   ► includes one entry and it is number four

00:10:34 ◼   ► and it is the Metallica Carole the

00:10:37 ◼   ► Belles thing ah hello this is me from

00:10:43 ◼   ► the future while editing this I learned

00:10:45 ◼   ► that Metallica actually had nothing to

00:10:46 ◼   ► do with this song and it's a common

00:10:47 ◼   ► mistake

00:10:48 ◼   ► most likely propagated by miss tagged

00:10:50 ◼   ► mp3s from the Napster days this is

00:10:52 ◼   ► actually just trans-siberian Orchestra

00:10:54 ◼   ► entitled Christmas Eve

00:10:55 ◼   ► Sarajevo 1224

00:11:00 ◼   ► you're only really brought one song yeah

00:11:03 ◼   ► Oh Micah you're lucky we're here yeah I

00:11:06 ◼   ► don't think we would've done this topic

00:11:08 ◼   ► because I don't you know it it's not

00:11:11 ◼   ► that I hate Christmas or anything I just

00:11:13 ◼   ► I don't get that into Christmas songs

00:11:16 ◼   ► because almost all of them just get so

00:11:20 ◼   ► grossly overplayed into the ground that

00:11:24 ◼   ► and I've heard them all like hundreds of

00:11:25 ◼   ► times so much so that I just don't I

00:11:28 ◼   ► don't really feel anything about any of

00:11:30 ◼   ► them anymore yeah there is no type of

00:11:32 ◼   ► music like Christmas music because

00:11:33 ◼   ► there's no music that gets played every

00:11:36 ◼   ► year a specific time a specific time

00:11:38 ◼   ► always forever to use like a wintry

00:11:41 ◼   ► metaphor it's like a snowball effect

00:11:42 ◼   ► because just we have all of these songs

00:11:45 ◼   ► and more of them get added over time and

00:11:47 ◼   ► there's just more and more and more

00:11:48 ◼   ► Christmas music always always well and

00:11:51 ◼   ► maybe I think my problem is that at

00:11:53 ◼   ► least maybe this is just me being

00:11:56 ◼   ► isolated from the universe because I'm

00:11:57 ◼   ► just nerd but it seems like the the rate

00:12:00 ◼   ► at which Christmas songs could add it is

00:12:02 ◼   ► actually way too slow for me that every

00:12:04 ◼   ► year you hear like the same traditional

00:12:05 ◼   ► songs over and over again just with

00:12:07 ◼   ► somebody doing a different arrangement

00:12:08 ◼   ► of it maybe it at best but the actually

00:12:11 ◼   ► getting new Christmas songs is I think

00:12:14 ◼   ► it's still too rare to the point where

00:12:16 ◼   ► like that's why I can't enjoy he's like

00:12:18 ◼   ► oh great I hear someone else singing you

00:12:20 ◼   ► know Oh Christmas tree great like I who

00:12:22 ◼   ► cares I don't I don't really get that

00:12:24 ◼   ► into that you have like no nostalgia

00:12:25 ◼   ► mark oh well I have nostalgia for

00:12:28 ◼   ► different things

00:12:28 ◼   ► yeah I'm okay so I'm looking for this

00:12:30 ◼   ► this song here and I found an album

00:12:33 ◼   ► called

00:12:33 ◼   ► have yourself a heavy-metal Christmas

00:12:35 ◼   ► it's probably not a million albums

00:12:37 ◼   ► because and the reason only my number

00:12:39 ◼   ► four is like this is like when it came

00:12:41 ◼   ► out in the 90s when I was playing it on

00:12:43 ◼   ► winamp on my Athlon computer like it

00:12:47 ◼   ► like at that point it was really cool

00:12:50 ◼   ► it's like look at listen to this awesome

00:12:51 ◼   ► like Metallica kind of metal inspired

00:12:54 ◼   ► but at least Rock version of this Carole

00:12:57 ◼   ► the belt it's so cool sticking it to

00:12:59 ◼   ► Santa man exactly and and since then it

00:13:02 ◼   ► has slowly become popular enough to be

00:13:04 ◼   ► in every like grocery store Christmas

00:13:07 ◼   ► song playlist so now you just hear it

00:13:10 ◼   ► everywhere constantly it now just sounds

00:13:12 ◼   ► like an old 90 song that you're

00:13:14 ◼   ► too much and I like nineties music a lot

00:13:16 ◼   ► so for me to say I'm hearing it too much

00:13:18 ◼   ► that's really saying something

00:13:19 ◼   ► well I have to say my number three is a

00:13:21 ◼   ► Carol the bells song also I really like

00:13:23 ◼   ► Carol the bells but mine's by Moe is the

00:13:25 ◼   ► one I prefer the jam band Moe yeah they

00:13:29 ◼   ► did a Carol why do you like this and I

00:13:31 ◼   ► don't all right here's the movin by

00:13:38 ◼   ► flying car of the bells terrifying it is

00:13:40 ◼   ► time almost all a lot of my favorite

00:13:43 ◼   ► songs are like a little bit weird and

00:13:45 ◼   ► depressing I don't know why this songs

00:13:47 ◼   ► so scary but like it really freaks me

00:13:48 ◼   ► out because it just gets more and more

00:13:54 ◼   ► more of a time I don't like it it builds

00:13:56 ◼   ► too much there's something about it I

00:13:57 ◼   ► just always really liked it so I could

00:13:59 ◼   ► not have it on my list this is a little

00:14:05 ◼   ► less scary well cuz Moe is a pretty low

00:14:08 ◼   ► key band like among the other among the

00:14:10 ◼   ► jam bands but that's saying a lot like

00:14:12 ◼   ► even among jam bands they're pretty

00:14:13 ◼   ► low-key so I wouldn't expect a lot of

00:14:16 ◼   ► like you know energy from this - hm

00:14:24 ◼   ► yes you have to have Kerala bells

00:14:27 ◼   ► playing at some point right

00:14:28 ◼   ► I don't have the Metallica when to play

00:14:31 ◼   ► that's all right we have one song so

00:14:33 ◼   ► here fired yeah well look I'm doing us

00:14:37 ◼   ► all a favor because if all if all of us

00:14:39 ◼   ► had four or five songs that it would be

00:14:41 ◼   ► too long an episode and I think we

00:14:43 ◼   ► should let the guests shine tonight

00:14:45 ◼   ► that's why I prepared nothing not

00:14:46 ◼   ► because I'm a slacker who hates

00:14:48 ◼   ► Christmas music haha well already got

00:14:49 ◼   ► two of mine out of the way so Mike

00:14:51 ◼   ► you're up next

00:14:52 ◼   ► my number three is I think the probably

00:14:55 ◼   ► the best Christmas song of all time so

00:14:57 ◼   ► it's number three that makes sense yeah

00:14:58 ◼   ► it's not my favorite I think it's the

00:15:02 ◼   ► best which is lost Christmas by Wham

00:15:06 ◼   ► this is the best Christmas song ever

00:15:09 ◼   ► okay I had last Christmas on my lid on

00:15:12 ◼   ► my short list

00:15:13 ◼   ► not on my favorite list by Jimmy Eat

00:15:16 ◼   ► World and today I was looking up about

00:15:20 ◼   ► these Christmas songs and I had no idea

00:15:23 ◼   ► that wham wrote that song yep this is a

00:15:26 ◼   ► wham song is a beautiful video they're

00:15:28 ◼   ► on a skiing trip

00:15:29 ◼   ► I can't believe wham wrote this song

00:15:32 ◼   ► it's so good and didn't just cover it

00:15:34 ◼   ► but they actually like brothers versus

00:15:36 ◼   ► actually it was considering this one as

00:15:38 ◼   ► well and as I was listening to Christmas

00:15:41 ◼   ► compilations it started kind of like

00:15:43 ◼   ► falling a few places until it got out

00:15:45 ◼   ► the very last day how could it fall it

00:15:47 ◼   ► cuz surely only rise because the more

00:15:49 ◼   ► like you love the first time of the year

00:15:52 ◼   ► you actually hear it but then the more

00:15:54 ◼   ► you hear it becomes more annoying and I

00:15:56 ◼   ► I wrote down here that I always

00:15:58 ◼   ► associated with stores background music

00:16:02 ◼   ► at Christmas so it is everywhere this is

00:16:04 ◼   ► so good and it just gets annoying up

00:16:06 ◼   ► there point is this is the wham version

00:16:16 ◼   ► yeah

00:16:16 ◼   ► which to me is a little bit slow it is

00:16:18 ◼   ► Erin let me get you the Jimmy Eat World

00:16:20 ◼   ► version of Italy just ruin it they well

00:16:25 ◼   ► the band were like all their songs sound

00:16:27 ◼   ► about the same yeah and I I like them

00:16:29 ◼   ► for a while so it's like I like that

00:16:31 ◼   ► sound but they do also is unacceptable

00:16:34 ◼   ► this is like a Mexican party

00:16:40 ◼   ► yeah this sounds like Jimmy Eat World it

00:16:42 ◼   ► goes this is this makes me sad yeah it's

00:16:46 ◼   ► actually sent this making me not like

00:16:47 ◼   ► Jimmy Eat World anymore is actually the

00:16:50 ◼   ► thing is they haven't done enough to us

00:16:52 ◼   ► like I would have expected them to

00:16:54 ◼   ► change the song a lot more they really

00:16:57 ◼   ► kind of just covered it but comparing

00:16:59 ◼   ► that when to the WAM one no no the Wham

00:17:02 ◼   ► one is far superior in every single way

00:17:04 ◼   ► I agree all right Marco I wasn't

00:17:07 ◼   ► expecting that

00:17:09 ◼   ► honestly I wasn't either but that was

00:17:11 ◼   ► terrible oh well people they had so much

00:17:16 ◼   ► hot when they sang that song they really

00:17:18 ◼   ► meant it I do you know what's your

00:17:20 ◼   ► number three so my number three is super

00:17:25 ◼   ► classic it's Bing Crosby white Christmas

00:17:30 ◼   ► chase I was actually considering for

00:17:33 ◼   ► this one the Eagles please come home for

00:17:35 ◼   ► Christmas as well for number three but

00:17:37 ◼   ► then going for everything I downgraded

00:17:39 ◼   ► that one and stuck with Bing Crosby

00:17:43 ◼   ► because it's just one of those songs

00:17:47 ◼   ► that feels like a fairy tale Christmas

00:17:50 ◼   ► and having seen New Year for the very

00:17:52 ◼   ► first time now and the CDs were superbly

00:17:56 ◼   ► decorated it kind of made me feel like

00:17:59 ◼   ► in a fairy tale movie that you see the

00:18:01 ◼   ► Christmas and this song is kind of like

00:18:04 ◼   ► that and I we probably heard it

00:18:06 ◼   ► somewhere on the street being played and

00:18:08 ◼   ► and also I'm I'm my I'm a firm belief

00:18:13 ◼   ► that the 50s type of music makes for the

00:18:16 ◼   ► best type of Christmas music there's a

00:18:19 ◼   ► background in the home so I thought that

00:18:21 ◼   ► deserves my third place yeah I agree

00:18:24 ◼   ► yeah yeah this is a solid but especially

00:18:27 ◼   ► the way it starts to

00:18:29 ◼   ► like velvet whose picture dad the

00:18:33 ◼   ► slippers it is a bit slow is there a

00:18:44 ◼   ► very few like songs that have become

00:18:47 ◼   ► such a thing that the white Christmas is

00:18:48 ◼   ► a thing and it's like mostly import to

00:18:51 ◼   ► this song because you just know this

00:18:52 ◼   ► song everybody knows this song

00:18:54 ◼   ► especially that part yeah I'm feeling so

00:19:01 ◼   ► festive now so so far all of your pics

00:19:05 ◼   ► have been that both of you have been

00:19:06 ◼   ► like kind of slow like the traditional

00:19:10 ◼   ► musics where it costs in half the

00:19:12 ◼   ► Hangout oh it's about to change it'll go

00:19:15 ◼   ► up a notch but if picked a mellow jam

00:19:18 ◼   ► band yep it was carol of the bells it's

00:19:21 ◼   ► right it was the most mellowed version

00:19:23 ◼   ► of that song I've ever heard whatever

00:19:25 ◼   ► and I like Moe and I still that was

00:19:27 ◼   ► boring all right well then speaking it

00:19:29 ◼   ► let's get the boring finished with

00:19:31 ◼   ► because my number two Christmas song is

00:19:34 ◼   ► skating by Norman brown which is

00:19:39 ◼   ► actually a walnut patinas song the

00:19:43 ◼   ► peanuts Christmas is totally like in my

00:19:47 ◼   ► wheelhouse that was like when I grew up

00:19:49 ◼   ► with it

00:19:52 ◼   ► and it's just instrumental the whole

00:19:54 ◼   ► thing I like it so I have to fully

00:19:56 ◼   ► instrumental songs on my layout that's

00:19:59 ◼   ► very jazzy yeah I don't know this just

00:20:03 ◼   ► the sound of it feels Christmasy to me

00:20:05 ◼   ► oh there's some sketches

00:20:08 ◼   ► yes scatting its vocal instrumentals yep

00:20:10 ◼   ► yeah I like this I like the kind of like

00:20:13 ◼   ► jazzy edginess yeah and it's a pretty

00:20:17 ◼   ► long song it's over four minutes it's

00:20:20 ◼   ► about four minutes long but practically

00:20:23 ◼   ► jam bam it is oh my god whoo ant what

00:20:26 ◼   ► have I become

00:20:27 ◼   ► before we leave the slow section though

00:20:30 ◼   ► I did so like the classic section and

00:20:32 ◼   ► then the way the rest of your list looks

00:20:34 ◼   ► like it's probably more classic stuff I

00:20:35 ◼   ► had to give a shout out for Jingle Bell

00:20:37 ◼   ► Rock whilst I didn't want to put it in

00:20:40 ◼   ► my top four is my next two songs I love

00:20:43 ◼   ► them so much and I don't think many of

00:20:45 ◼   ► the people will pick them jingle bell

00:20:47 ◼   ► rock is just so fantastic and home alone

00:20:49 ◼   ► you have a version of jingle bell rock

00:20:52 ◼   ► that you prefer Bobby Helms original

00:20:56 ◼   ► classic like this is one of those songs

00:21:05 ◼   ► that will never go get one sorry Marco

00:21:10 ◼   ► you like this phone it's forgettable

00:21:14 ◼   ► because I've heard it a million times

00:21:16 ◼   ► like I I can look back I can recognize

00:21:18 ◼   ► like all right as Christmas songs go I

00:21:21 ◼   ► guess this is okay it's a good one you

00:21:23 ◼   ► know but I just don't feel anything for

00:21:25 ◼   ► these songs

00:21:26 ◼   ► yeah I grieve you Indian I like that

00:21:28 ◼   ► it's weird that so many of the really

00:21:30 ◼   ► good songs come from a very specific

00:21:32 ◼   ► time period here well shoot well Deena

00:21:34 ◼   ► was mentioning Bing and I had a Bing

00:21:37 ◼   ► song on my short list but it's from a

00:21:39 ◼   ► movie that you guys haven't seen well

00:21:42 ◼   ► not from a movie but they play it in the

00:21:44 ◼   ► movie and that's why I like it do you

00:21:47 ◼   ► know this sure is this do you ever hear

00:21:52 ◼   ► this and in the UK this is a Christmas

00:21:59 ◼   ► it's feel like Christmas movie I've

00:22:03 ◼   ► never heard this before really yeah I

00:22:07 ◼   ► like this song for Christmas it makes me

00:22:09 ◼   ► smile it's an old Christmas song but

00:22:11 ◼   ► it's goofy is it a Hawaiian Christmas

00:22:13 ◼   ► song yeah yeah yeah he says like Merry

00:22:18 ◼   ► Christmas and in Hawaiian that would

00:22:21 ◼   ► they call their language I don't know

00:22:23 ◼   ► I'm sorry if I offended any other hues

00:22:27 ◼   ► ever than every show

00:22:32 ◼   ► I assume thats Merry Christmas

00:22:38 ◼   ► yeah maybe but I guess it's significant

00:22:41 ◼   ► because in National Lampoon's Christmas

00:22:42 ◼   ► vacation he has like this fantasy of

00:22:44 ◼   ► getting a pool for Christmas with like

00:22:47 ◼   ► his Christmas bonus and okay it's

00:22:49 ◼   ► playing during that but it's interesting

00:22:52 ◼   ► that he wrote that song right yeah I

00:22:54 ◼   ► don't did he write it stuck that that

00:22:58 ◼   ► was a song that was created then I mean

00:22:59 ◼   ► Hawaii and all that was so popular than

00:23:02 ◼   ► yeah I mean so you remember watching Mad

00:23:04 ◼   ► Men they were going to Hawaii and

00:23:05 ◼   ► experiencing like that was a huge cool

00:23:08 ◼   ► thing to do so he was just being cool

00:23:10 ◼   ► yeah obviously super cool yeah Hawaii's

00:23:13 ◼   ► super cool

00:23:14 ◼   ► but I wanted to throw that one out there

00:23:16 ◼   ► I always thought that was a really good

00:23:17 ◼   ► one is a good pic actually I quite like

00:23:19 ◼   ► that cuz that song is crazy

00:23:22 ◼   ► alright so what are we up to here before

00:23:25 ◼   ► we change the direction with mics first

00:23:30 ◼   ► two picks

00:23:32 ◼   ► I just want and just looking at my list

00:23:34 ◼   ► because it's super traditional it's

00:23:37 ◼   ► clear to me that Christmas means

00:23:38 ◼   ► different things for different people

00:23:40 ◼   ► and for me this Christmas means

00:23:43 ◼   ► tradition and tradition is repetitive

00:23:46 ◼   ► and it kindly gets optimized but doesn't

00:23:50 ◼   ► make huge lips and I think that's why

00:23:53 ◼   ► there are so many versions of the same

00:23:55 ◼   ► song done by so many things so yeah

00:24:00 ◼   ► that's my comment before we completely

00:24:02 ◼   ► change direction because I'm gonna stay

00:24:04 ◼   ► in the traditional area but but I have a

00:24:07 ◼   ► special mention a weird mention from

00:24:10 ◼   ► Romania just to make things fun special

00:24:12 ◼   ► requests by Mike yeah I wanted a weird

00:24:14 ◼   ► Romanian song so you're gonna get it

00:24:16 ◼   ► it's not weird it's different did you

00:24:18 ◼   ► just request it as pick a we remain we

00:24:21 ◼   ► remain as long as do you have a specific

00:24:22 ◼   ► one no I was like just pick one Apple

00:24:27 ◼   ► music let's see

00:24:28 ◼   ► so it's Andre and it's cold not the

00:24:32 ◼   ► Divis no you can spell that too right

00:24:34 ◼   ► yep you got that and oh a Pte alright so

00:24:38 ◼   ► what is this do you know what is this

00:24:39 ◼   ► called fairytale night basically okay

00:25:16 ◼   ► into the u.s. probably not but literally

00:25:19 ◼   ► that is Europe right so like ASA bass

00:25:22 ◼   ► was I think the closest we might have

00:25:23 ◼   ► gotten to that yeah like in popular yes

00:25:25 ◼   ► because that like I mean you can kind of

00:25:27 ◼   ► see how like that mirrors into this like

00:25:30 ◼   ► it's kind of like it you can see how you

00:25:32 ◼   ► can get from a sub bass or something

00:25:33 ◼   ► like that European music are they oh

00:25:36 ◼   ► look palek shirts there oh yeah

00:29:50 ◼   ► solid pick

00:29:53 ◼   ► as well I like this this song for a

00:29:56 ◼   ► bunch of reasons like I love it because

00:29:57 ◼   ► they sing together I love the sound of

00:29:58 ◼   ► two men singing together I don't know

00:30:00 ◼   ► why I just like that sound yeah they

00:30:02 ◼   ► have such great compliment in voices and

00:30:04 ◼   ► it also is good because it's got that

00:30:06 ◼   ► great chorus but also a bunch of comedy

00:30:09 ◼   ► as well yeah when they start talking and

00:30:11 ◼   ► making little jokes in the middle during

00:30:12 ◼   ► the song drum Roderick is proposing to

00:30:14 ◼   ► his girlfriend and they're talking about

00:30:43 ◼   ► I like and this is my favorite on the

00:30:46 ◼   ► album so I think as time goes on like I

00:30:48 ◼   ► will maybe bump this up to number one

00:30:51 ◼   ► but I just think it's such a just such a

00:30:53 ◼   ► solid song that's a really really good

00:31:07 ◼   ► one so good I do okay so alright so

00:31:09 ◼   ► Adina you're number two back to the

00:31:12 ◼   ► traditional side of things is this one

00:31:14 ◼   ► also sexy traditional you all know it

00:31:18 ◼   ► but I just love it that's Chris Rhea

00:31:21 ◼   ► driving home for Christmas oh I hate

00:31:23 ◼   ► driving I can't stand this song oh I

00:31:27 ◼   ► just love it and I don't even have like

00:31:29 ◼   ► a specific reasoning I just because it's

00:31:32 ◼   ► very repetitive it's mostly his voice

00:31:33 ◼   ► which I just love and because it's like

00:31:37 ◼   ► the variety type I think it if it was

00:31:40 ◼   ► like Nicole Scherzinger or on x-factor

00:31:42 ◼   ► she was always describing this type of

00:31:44 ◼   ► voice is like hot chocolate butter

00:31:46 ◼   ► alright so you do like Christmas this

00:31:59 ◼   ► song is like it's a good song but for me

00:32:01 ◼   ► it becomes like an ear worm which is why

00:32:03 ◼   ► I can't stand it whose things this one

00:32:05 ◼   ► Chris

00:32:06 ◼   ► which is like says Chris Rea is it what

00:32:12 ◼   ► is that video I don't know it's like on

00:32:17 ◼   ► acid it's very descriptive

00:32:21 ◼   ► I have no I've never heard this song

00:32:22 ◼   ► before yes this is like a live version

00:32:27 ◼   ► of it yeah yeah like like I will not be

00:32:41 ◼   ► able to stop them so why is this your

00:32:45 ◼   ► number two it's I couldn't really

00:32:48 ◼   ► explain it much it just makes me feel

00:32:50 ◼   ► like Christmas is this another one of

00:32:53 ◼   ► those like UK know finding the people I

00:32:56 ◼   ► don't know no shows on this but this is

00:32:59 ◼   ► actually a Christmas song but I don't

00:33:02 ◼   ► know where he got no way he's from Chris

00:33:04 ◼   ► rare it sounds like the kind of song we

00:33:06 ◼   ► would have here but I've never heard it

00:33:08 ◼   ► before yeah I haven't either that's not

00:33:10 ◼   ► the best version but then again the

00:33:13 ◼   ► album version it's not too far but it's

00:33:18 ◼   ► not the greatest version of it I don't

00:33:20 ◼   ► like that song I'm also pointed to a

00:33:22 ◼   ► seal number two wait till you hear

00:33:24 ◼   ► number one yeah all right so before we

00:33:29 ◼   ► get to number ones I want to kind of

00:33:30 ◼   ► talk about the ones that didn't make it

00:33:32 ◼   ► yeah and for me one of the big ones I

00:33:35 ◼   ► want to talk about is the song river

00:33:37 ◼   ► which is written by Joni Mitchell I

00:33:41 ◼   ► believe it was on her album

00:33:49 ◼   ► but I really like the version sung by

00:33:52 ◼   ► Robert Downey jr. okay I'd like to hear

00:33:55 ◼   ► that

00:33:55 ◼   ► yes scenario did he do that it was on

00:33:58 ◼   ► Ally McBeal which is a TV show about a

00:34:00 ◼   ► whole bunch of lawyers yeah and I find I

00:34:02 ◼   ► really like Robert Downey jr. I think he

00:34:05 ◼   ► is up your street and so I just it's you

00:34:14 ◼   ► won't believe that this is him singing

00:34:17 ◼   ► cuz you don't think of him because now

00:34:19 ◼   ► he's like Iron Man right yep you know

00:34:23 ◼   ► this song it's actually kind of

00:34:25 ◼   ► depressing because you know it's Joni

00:34:27 ◼   ► Mitchell I know that like that tune

00:34:32 ◼   ► here comes I would not have imagined

00:34:44 ◼   ► that to be probably Downey jr.

00:34:48 ◼   ► to escape

00:34:53 ◼   ► it was too sad for Christmas it's really

00:34:56 ◼   ► sad it is why I didn't make it from not

00:34:58 ◼   ► even like Christmas eggs like lost

00:35:00 ◼   ► Christmas is a sad song but it's

00:35:02 ◼   ► Christmas sad

00:35:03 ◼   ► that's just like sad sad well it's Joni

00:35:04 ◼   ► Mitchell she's pretty sad yeah that's

00:35:06 ◼   ► pretty sad so but I think I prefer her

00:35:08 ◼   ► burgers and honestly I know it hers is

00:35:10 ◼   ► even more slow and sad no but it's like

00:35:12 ◼   ► I'd rather hear like like that like herb

00:35:13 ◼   ► that album the her blue album is like a

00:35:15 ◼   ► masterpiece yeah and that's just kind of

00:35:17 ◼   ► like a butchering of this thing I don't

00:35:19 ◼   ► know it's Robert Downey jr. and he has a

00:35:21 ◼   ► sexy voice but it's like if you're gonna

00:35:22 ◼   ► cover something from that album you you

00:35:25 ◼   ► better really like kill it like you got

00:35:27 ◼   ► like really go all out and do something

00:35:29 ◼   ► amazing and I just didn't sound amazing

00:35:31 ◼   ► enough to be a cover of that album you

00:35:33 ◼   ► know bring it for me it's about the

00:35:35 ◼   ► voice that's good but anyway it is so

00:35:38 ◼   ► much better it's different I think if he

00:35:41 ◼   ► wasn't now this weird movie star that's

00:35:43 ◼   ► like that makes this interesting I think

00:35:45 ◼   ► it would be less impressive I liked it

00:35:47 ◼   ► before it was interesting you want to

00:35:48 ◼   ► fight alright if I feel like really

00:35:49 ◼   ► great on a curve she's a movie star now

00:35:51 ◼   ► no I liked it when it was on Ally it's

00:35:54 ◼   ► really good I know they feel yeah McBeal

00:35:58 ◼   ► we don't even need anyway and alright so

00:36:02 ◼   ► that was my one I have a whole bunch of

00:36:04 ◼   ► other ones that you know I like like

00:36:07 ◼   ► more we were saying for much more modern

00:36:09 ◼   ► Christmas music that came out I mean I I

00:37:06 ◼   ► album which is twisted Christmas by

00:37:09 ◼   ► Twisted Sister they have a Christmas

00:37:12 ◼   ► album and it is amazing because every

00:37:15 ◼   ► song sounds like we're not gonna take it

00:37:17 ◼   ► but it's all traditional Christmas songs

00:37:19 ◼   ► just them yelling come on I need to it's

00:37:22 ◼   ► exactly what you'd expect lately every

00:37:24 ◼   ► song sounds the same and it all just

00:37:25 ◼   ► sounds like Twisted Sister like it's

00:37:27 ◼   ► it's amazing this is oh come all ye

00:37:30 ◼   ► faithful it's like they didn't even

00:37:41 ◼   ► bother we know how to do that one song

00:37:44 ◼   ► we'll just put all the words to that

00:37:46 ◼   ► song so much

00:37:54 ◼   ► it's just like the way they sing it it

00:37:58 ◼   ► is this is let it snow you did this come

00:38:02 ◼   ► out pretty recently No

00:38:07 ◼   ► and people we were in college for them

00:38:10 ◼   ► that's pretty recent

00:38:13 ◼   ► just let it snow wait it's coming

00:38:33 ◼   ► come on

00:38:36 ◼   ► they got a you know twist it up we can

00:38:39 ◼   ► play guess what song this is how long

00:38:41 ◼   ► does hake

00:38:51 ◼   ► this they're just drunk yeah don't you

00:38:58 ◼   ► want to hear that again not really no

00:39:00 ◼   ► you do you'll hear it again tomorrow

00:39:01 ◼   ► morning I'll play that window makeup

00:39:02 ◼   ► that will wake me up so I have a I have

00:39:06 ◼   ► three that didn't make my list that went

00:39:09 ◼   ► to mention one of them is Jackson five

00:39:11 ◼   ► Santa Claus is coming to town

00:39:12 ◼   ► Wow it's like Jackson five FS

00:39:24 ◼   ► and then there's two other songs that I

00:39:27 ◼   ► thought were completely British songs

00:39:31 ◼   ► for Christmas but I heard one of them

00:39:34 ◼   ► here like I think yesterday maybe when

00:39:38 ◼   ► we were in Walmart

00:39:39 ◼   ► maybe I think it was wish it could be

00:39:42 ◼   ► Christmas everyday by wizard by the way

00:39:45 ◼   ► we took them to Walmart yep it was

00:39:47 ◼   ► awesome

00:39:47 ◼   ► it was everything we could have wished

00:39:48 ◼   ► he could be and so much more but lower

00:39:52 ◼   ► prices

00:40:16 ◼   ► and so this is like in Love Actually the

00:40:19 ◼   ► idea of like the one-hit wonder

00:40:21 ◼   ► Christmas that makes money forever this

00:40:23 ◼   ► is one of those songs like this is

00:40:25 ◼   ► basically all wizard alone for

00:40:34 ◼   ► and then I think this one was so

00:40:36 ◼   ► successful because it plays into every

00:40:38 ◼   ► child's dream of it being Christmas

00:40:39 ◼   ► everyday right and then the other one is

00:40:42 ◼   ► Merry Christmas everybody by Slade

00:40:53 ◼   ► that's the bit so like that is like just

00:40:55 ◼   ► a thing in the UK that one that one last

00:40:58 ◼   ► part and the guy whose name is naughty

00:41:01 ◼   ► holder that's his name he's known for

00:41:04 ◼   ► that that that it's Christmas can you

00:41:07 ◼   ► can you sing that for us Mike

00:41:08 ◼   ► no no if you want me to finish the rest

00:41:11 ◼   ► of my list that's there my my kind of

00:41:15 ◼   ► random pics I want to throw out there

00:41:16 ◼   ► before I give my number one in a moment

00:41:18 ◼   ► that's fair Deena do you have any others

00:41:21 ◼   ► yep you know I'm quite surprised that

00:41:23 ◼   ► you didn't mention anything from the

00:41:25 ◼   ► Beach Boys because I think they have a

00:41:26 ◼   ► Christmas song they do they have a

00:41:28 ◼   ► little same yeah I don't like oh yeah

00:41:30 ◼   ► cuz I know you're such a big they always

00:41:33 ◼   ► fan they are a summer band not Christmas

00:41:35 ◼   ► okay

00:41:36 ◼   ► they fly south for the winter yeah I

00:41:38 ◼   ► mean little Saint Nick is fine but I

00:41:40 ◼   ► don't I'm not a big fan of it it was

00:41:43 ◼   ► like they made most of the money in the

00:41:45 ◼   ► summer and they did something to do in

00:41:46 ◼   ► the winter so doing songs

00:41:50 ◼   ► California has Christmas too you know

00:41:54 ◼   ► now I'm like in it I love it but it

00:41:58 ◼   ► wouldn't make my got the Bell this also

00:42:07 ◼   ► sounds like all they're like

00:42:08 ◼   ► stereotypical songs yeah I know there

00:42:10 ◼   ► are deeper band than they say ah but

00:42:11 ◼   ► like this sounds just as like

00:42:14 ◼   ► stereotypical exam why I don't like this

00:42:17 ◼   ► as much cuz yeah Christmas songs are

00:42:19 ◼   ► like Christmas wasn't their thing so

00:42:22 ◼   ► they basically just took the surf in

00:42:24 ◼   ► songs and turn them into Christmas song

00:42:25 ◼   ► yeah just add some bells yeah it's not

00:42:29 ◼   ► their best work and it's kind of the

00:42:31 ◼   ► lowest of their work really it's kind of

00:42:33 ◼   ► like it's just like a sellout move

00:42:35 ◼   ► really it's kind of disappointing that

00:42:36 ◼   ► like as a family you don't want your

00:42:38 ◼   ► favorite band to do that nope you guys

00:42:40 ◼   ► are just trampling all over Adina's

00:42:41 ◼   ► dreams so that's just a regular day for

00:42:46 ◼   ► me yeah so the stuff that didn't make my

00:42:50 ◼   ► list first one is John Lennon and Yoko

00:42:54 ◼   ► happy Christmas I think this is so

00:42:57 ◼   ► powerful because the official title is

00:43:00 ◼   ► happy Christmas worries over and war is

00:43:04 ◼   ► over okay yeah it's like I just love it

00:43:07 ◼   ► more now in the context of everything

00:43:09 ◼   ► that's happening the world I finally get

00:43:11 ◼   ► why people are so loving in the 7th is

00:43:15 ◼   ► amazing

00:43:18 ◼   ► yeah

00:43:22 ◼   ► I have a band-aid version of this yeah

00:43:25 ◼   ► this son I like this one more

00:43:35 ◼   ► my other one is super sad but it's

00:43:39 ◼   ► Darlene love Christmas baby please come

00:43:42 ◼   ► home and it really reminds me a lot of a

00:43:46 ◼   ► song that's after laughter comes tears

00:43:49 ◼   ► it's in that vein if you know it but at

00:43:52 ◼   ► the same time on I like about it it's

00:43:54 ◼   ► that it has this The Supremes vibe and

00:43:56 ◼   ► the kind of music should be like it's

00:44:03 ◼   ► like it's not the song is really good

00:44:27 ◼   ► no Darnley loves sang it but it was

00:44:30 ◼   ► written by yeah

00:44:32 ◼   ► Oh Ellie Greenwich written by Elia grant

00:44:35 ◼   ► of course Ellie Greenwich I don't know

00:44:38 ◼   ► why that means you know one out there

00:44:40 ◼   ► will know okay you need to go boo blaze

00:44:42 ◼   ► version of this oh my god so why do you

00:44:45 ◼   ► say everything just lay the Buble over

00:44:47 ◼   ► all of our Christmas I don't know how it

00:44:49 ◼   ► is here but in the UK he's such a

00:44:51 ◼   ► phenomenon and he only appears of

00:45:07 ◼   ► caught these quantities audience the

00:45:09 ◼   ► last one that didn't make my list is
