Is 'Christmas' An Actual Holiday Song?
Wednesday, December 22, 2021 at 04:34PM
The Who included the track "Christmas" on their masterpiece Tommy. Folks like to listen to the tune around this time of year... but is it really a holiday song? I say no. It just fits into the concept of Tommy. But "Christmas" is not a carol per se. That said, I would take The Who over most any other pop-sap Christmas tune this time of year. To me, "Christmas" is one of those songs you can play in August and no one will give you weird looks. Play "Jingle Bells" when it's 100 degrees in the midwest and people will stare.
