So, have I already confessed this? I can't remember... forgive me if this is a repeat. I confess, on Monday, November 17, I bought a Christmas cd. hehe... I know people can get grumpy about Christmas music pre-Thanksgiving, (Brett included) but, ahem, I listen to Christmas music year round. So there.
I saw a Christmas cd in Starbucks last week that called out to me! So Monday when I went to grab a latte, I snagged the tunes as well. Every year I have a song that seems to be my favorite for the season, and this year it was brought to me in the form of my Starbucks cd. Have you heard 2000 Miles by The Pretenders? I love it! It's a Christmas love song, I guess, kind of like I'll Be Home For Christmas. I actually already knew this song because it somehow ended up on my iTunes a couple of years ago. I think that I thought it was 500 Miles by The Proclaimers when I added it to my iTunes. oops! So I've known it and liked it for a couple of years, but I had never heard it clearly until listening to it in my car.
My job today and tomorrow is to learn the words, because I am pretty sure I would sound like a Rock Star singing it. haha!
Merry Christmas! And Happy Thanksgiving. And Happy Birthday to my sister Jenna who turned 24 today!
ps. The Most Depressing Line in a Christmas Song award goes to:
"There won't be snow in Africa this Christmas. The greatest gift they'll get this year is life".
I know it's an important message to share, but do you really have to pretend to make a Christmas song to get the point across? Sorry, but it feels like a Saturday Night Live skit.
