. . . they're on the air while
you're doing your hair . . .
. . . playing the hits
while you're spraying your pits . . .
{via tim & willy}
. . . i'm a morning radio listener . . .
. . . at least an hour a day
while i'm getting presentable . . .
. . . usually country music . . .
. . . but pre-thanksgiving
through december . . .
. . . it's christmas music 24/7 . . .
. . . and, as you might suspect . . .
. . . i have opinions . . .
. . . some of them
a little grinchy . . .
. . . first of all,
i know there's tons
of great christmas music
out there . . .
. . . why, then, do they play
the same stuff
over and over and over and over? . . .
. . . case in point . . .
. . . "last christmas,
i gave you my heart . . .
. . . but the very next day
you gave it away" . . .
. . . blah, blah, blah . . .
. . . and my all time unfavorite
begins with creepy whispering . . .
. . . "happy christmas yoko.
happy christmas julian" . . .
. . . just ~ ~ ~ no . . .
. . . also on the naughty/
drives me crazy list . . .
. . . "onthisnightonthisnight
onthisverychristmasnight
onthisnightonthisnight
onthisverychristmasnight" . . .
. . . then there's
the "o holy night" battle . . .
. . . i'm basically anti-celine . . .
. . . but i have to give the win
to michael crawford . . .
. . . that last note . . .
. . . he holds it
through all those modulations . . .
. . . and extra points today to david . . .
. . . good for him . . .
. . . this decision
couldn't have been easy . . .
. . . this michael made
my favorites list . . .
. . . may i say that
the puppini sisters
are just adorable . . .
. . . and though
i usually change the station
when shania twain comes on,
her duet on "white christmas"
is yodelightful . . .
{the international section at the end of the cd,
i can take it or leave it ~ mostly leave it}
. . . harry's been
on the nice list
for years . . .
. . . chicago holds
a place in my heart . . .
. . . mostly from
the saturday night dances
of my youth . . .
. . . i used to think
. . . that was until
this one was released . . .
. . . "in the bleak midwinter"
brings tears to my eyes
every time i listen . . .
. . . truly lovely . . .
. . . so all in all ~
some yays and some boos . . .
. . . and yet
nothing sounded as lovely
as the children's choir
my granddaughters sang in
on sunday evening . . .
. . . hearing their angelic voices
and watching them sign
the lyrics of
was the best gift . . .
. . . i was one proud grammy . . .
. . . it was music to my ears . . .
. . . what's your favorite? . . .

so proud of you david archuleta. with your beautiful voice and your humble spirit, your message will resonate far and wide. way to go.
p.s. one more request steph - if i go in december...you must play christmas music at my funeral. that goes for november through january...or how liberal you'd like to get with that assignment! and i concur with the one's you dislike...they can stay off the program.
I totally agree with your hate list...I could have written that. AND I love the mission announcement from little "Archie"...he is adorable...and one of my fav Christmas cd's. Merry Christmas to you and your fam!
