The Oversaturation Of Christmas Music

This is a brief follow up to my previous post about how Holidays are now being pushed on us so incredibly early. There’s something I noticed this year that is beyond ridiculous. A local oldies radio station where I live, at one time played Buddy Holly and the Beatles and now plays Billy Joel and REO Speedwagon (but that’s a whole other post) and during the holiday season they play exclusively Christmas music, 24 hours a day. This use to commence on midnight on Thanksgiving, so virtually for all of December. Last year it started on Veteran’s day. This year it was the first week of November.

Basically, we now have 2 full months of Christmas music on this station. If you can’t see what’s wrong with that you’re insane. I mean, I actually like some Christmas music but this is just serious overkill.

I wonder if they do this bullshit in the UK?

    I feel bad for anyone who works at the mall during Christmas Season (especially Jewish people). Having Christmas music and decorations and pissed off shoppers, everyday your at work for a month or more must really kill the Holiday.

    Jewish people are impervious to the sounds of yuletide cheer.
