The links to the songs I'm saving. Christmas songs that are so filled with 'the reason for the season' are becoming rarer as a presence in our everyday environment. Everything is so generically holiday but non-religious. It's a commercial holiday instead. I hadn't realized how far things have changed.
We still try to keep to the spirit and most of our modern-day and even traditional OPM* Christmas songs reflects that. Even gatherings and Christmas parties here may be for children but the working adults makes it as fun, safe, if a little naughty but still fun overall. ;)
The family gatherings are always the highlight because you will always hear the phrases with a bit of ribbing, "you look fit", "you got fat", "are you still single?", "do you have a bf/gf?", "when are you getting married?", "when are you getting a child?" stuff like that. Overall, it is a more relaxed type of connecting without any drama whatsoever..... then a game of bingo! XD
