Christmas Time

Backstreet Boys

Ooh
Ooh

There is something special about this time of year
The Christmas feeling's everywhere
I just got home to join you
I've been away too long (been away too long)
But now I'm back to share my love
Friends are reunited
One big family
Filled with love to last throughout the year

Christmas time
Time to share our love
Come and join
The tidings to the world
Christmas time
The best time of the year
Yes, it's Christmas time (oh, Christmas time)

You and me together
A sleigh ride in the park
A loving kiss straight, straight from my heart
Snowflakes falling gently
The smell of chestnuts in the air
And Christmas lights, they gleam across the sky
Ooh, it's Christmas time

Christmas time
Time to share our love
So come and join
The tidings to the world
Christmas time (it's Christmas time)
The best time of the year (the best time)
Yes, it's Christmas time (oh, yes)

Do you remember? (Do you remember?)
Everything felt so right (ooh)
When I held you close to me, oh yeah
Do you remember those cold Christmas nights?
When we saw the world in harmony

Christmas time
Time to share our love (time to share our love)
Come and join
The tidings to the world (the tidings to the world)
Christmas time (it's Christmas time)
The best time of the year (always the best time)
Yes, it's Christmas time (all around the world)
It's Christmas time for all the boys and girls (yeah)

Christmas time, time to share our love
Come and join tidings to the world
Christmas time, time to share our love (so come and join)
Come and join tidings to the world (come and join) (all the world)
Christmas time, time to share our love (everybody sing)
Come and join tidings to the world

Christmas time, time to share our love
Come and join tidings to the world
Christmas time, time to share our love
Come and join tidings to the world (time to share our love)
Christmas time, time to share our love (come and join)
Come and join tidings to the world (the tidings to the world)
Christmas time, time to share our love

    The boys first (and thankfully not last) Christmas song. Very nice. I prefer their newer one, but this is also lovely.

No Surprises
Radiohead
Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example: "'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/

Ed Sheeran
