Christmas music

Which leads me to two points:

1.  All the good Christmas songs have been written.  Quit trying.    

2.  If you are a more contemporary band and want to make a Christmas album a) see #1 and b) speeding up a classic Christmas song or singing it in a raspy Nickelback voice is not unique and not better.  Stop it.  

3. Thank you to this board for letting me post absolutely meaningless tripe as a way to vent.

Wrong.

You have not listened to Corey Taylor's X-mas! yet. 

Or the DropKick Murphy's, The Season is Upon Us.

The Band also has a really awesome Christmas song called, "Christmas Must Be Tonight".

U2- I Believe in Father Christmas

Chris Issak- Its Christmas Again


There's 5 songs, just off the top of my head, that I have on my Christmas cd that are 'contemporary' artists.  There's still good "new" Christmas music out there.  You just have to look around for it.  




Otherwise, Nickleback can go to Madagascar for the rest of my life and we'd be better off.
