I can agree with you about some of the songs and/or some of the versions, but wow...just wow...<br /><br />My own post today spells out how I feel about Christmas music, but I guess I just have a different take on the subject. That's okay. I'll hum <em>Travis Got Run Over By A Reindeer</em> just for you :)Erichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07823808700523297184noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9174721864572618040.post-59426243931104451062011-12-04T23:52:39.190-06:002011-12-04T23:52:39.190-06:00Oh my gosh I am not sure we can be friends anymore...Oh my gosh I am not sure we can be friends anymore, the hippo song is one of my ALL TIME FAVORITES!

You know the one:<br /><br />"Last Christmas, I gave you my heart, the very next day, you gave it awaaaaaaay". <br /><br />*shudder*<br /><br />It fills me with a seething, acidic rage every time I hear it. And yet, it remains extremely popular this time of year. Why?! WHY?! It's a song about heartbreak! Betrayal! Someone who can't get over being dumped even though it's been a year! <br /><br />Okay.
