I mean, isn’t the message of the song kind of anti consumerist?
In the same sense that life insurance ads are really about the importance of family, sure
Yeah really. Should've gone with "Santa Baby" or something.
I mean it is like the Christmas song, so it's not totally nonsense.
It's only ever played in places of retail to remind you you better start buying those presents real fucking quick.
There's an interesting video on the subject of corporate/commercial music: Corporate Music - How to Compose with no Soul
thanks for this one, really interesting
That videos gave me flashbacks to my tech support days. I'm going to go cry in the shower for a while.
Thanks for the discovery. Looks like his channel his filed with gold nuggets !
Very interesting video. Thanks 👍
This is the only Christmas song I approve of.
Then clearly you have never played wham-ageddon. As I approve of that song so immensely I play a game about avoiding it all December
It's worse for me. The Christmas songs are all about love and romance, the one thing I really can't receive. It's why I can't listen to pop music for an extended without feeling depressed. For me, a consumerist song is literally refreshing compared to the constant reminders of what I've missed and will seemingly never receive.
