Dude, who even knows.

Between the increasingly dated midcentury songs and TV specials, the legacy prewar department store stuff like the Macy’s parade, and Hallmark movies about rejecting yuppie urbanity for idealized small-town life, Christmas in the US is increasingly an American Golden Age nostalgia festival
Northern East Coast American Golden Age nostalgia fest. There is always snow at Christmas, but not too much and it isn’t that cold out, really.
Also this “Golden Age” is exactly like 7 years of the late 50s. For white people. Who had money.
And were America.
(It was the “Camelot” early 60s, too. And the now-“Rust Belt” through Chicago to Minneapolis.)
Exactly. (“A Charlie Brown Christmas” was 1965)
both the Christmas songs i remember hearing in supermarkets so far, bearing in mind it is still November, even if we are in Advent, and wanting to get out are ex-Beatles Christmas money spinners
we are not the same
Yeah, original Christmas music these days is cash-in stuff to get some easy sales and maybe airplay in December from people looking for something, anything new. People forget there was a Taylor Swift Christmas EP in 2007. (With an original “Jesus is the Reason For the Season” War on Christmas song!)
