I'm doing an Instagram December Photo Challenge. You take a photo of whatever is on the list for that day. Day 3 was Favorite Christmas Song. I posted a screen shot of Prince's Another Lonely Christmas. It's a great song and it's a favorite, but not the favorite. I love all kinds of Christmas music, yes, even religious songs. No matter what I know to be true for me now, good memories are good memories and they're not to be discounted just because I've evolved in my beliefs.
One thing I like about Christmas songs is there are so many different versions of so many great songs. And sometimes it isn't the song itself that's so great, but the emotion and sentiment attached to the song. So watching the Roots, Jimmy Fallon, Mariah Carey and 4 cute kids sing All I Want For Christmas, made me all giggly and happy. Aww, snap...I feel a list coming on! LIST TIME!
- I love the setting; a living room of a working class household with cheap decorations literally everywhere
- I love how they're all cramped together but totally fine with it
- I love the look of anticipation of the "xylophone stylist" at the beginning of the video
- I love Quest playing his hairbrush
- I love the ugly sweaters
- I fucking love Mariah's shoes
- I love big girl's hat
- I love all the kids' expressions
- I love Fallon "turning off" the camera/tv at the end
- I LOVE ALL THE THINGS!!
