If you like Devo, Mark Mothersbaugh did an album called Joyeux Mutato.
Also not Christmas technically, but it’s a good time of year to make a playlist of all your favorite music from video game ice worlds.

Oh yeah. I would be remiss not to toss in a KPop Xmas song. Most of them are sappy ballad types that I’m not into, but at least Crayon Pop provided this masterpiece.
I just decided I’m gonna bump Brenda Lee and John Lennon down to make room for Stevie in the 4 slot.

To me, this is the REAL “All I Want for Christmas is You” because I freaking hate that Mariah Carey song.
Guys I found the best sad Christmas song

I could listen to this on repeat for hours, and I don’t even celebrate Christmas. This song gives me chills every time I listen to it:

Incorrect, it doesn’t have a perfectly functional gravy recipe in it.

Gravy recipes aren’t sad; they’re the opposite.
So Lizzie is indeed correct. There’s no gravy, so people aren’t happy.
