It may be a coincidence that this is being posted on Christmas Eve, but I still find it weird A Few of My Favorite Things is highly regarded as a Christmas song due to a few coincidentally apt lyrics, not because it's about nativity, Santa or festivities in December. ( Favorite Things is about coping in the face of adversity, say when scary thunder wakes all the sleeping kids.)
Not long ago, I noticed Hazy Shade of Winter (Simon and Garfunkle) was on a Christmas album, a version styled on the Bangles cover. Hazy Shade is about an old poet struggling with geriatrics, cynicism, and waning enthusiasm for writing. But now it's a Christmas song.
Maybe we need more Christmas songs that are suitable to gloom of Seasonal Effective Disorder and the unrelenting march of Time, time, time
Yes, 100%. I'd like to see more songs about the dark cold that sucks rather than pretend with "merry and bright."
