The people who wrote it died. The people who could perform it decently died.

I’m hearing more of it this year than in the last few years.
A common way of hearing Christmas Music used to be on the AM Radio stations. Now, there are far fewer AM stations, terrestrial Am, that is. If you go online, it may be a different story, but you have to hunt and peck around for it.
I’m hearing more radio commercials actually say the word ‘Christmas’ this year too.

I LOVE Christmas music and search the local stations to listen to it.

I just found one station that apparently just plays old music from years ago. During December every other song is a nice Christmas carol or song. No ‘I saw mama kissing Santa” stuff, but carols and songs by Andy Williams, Bing Crosby, Perry Como and those types of older singers.

Just listening to this: https://www.bing.com/videos/search?q=Christmas+Songs+Playlist+YouTube&&view=detail&mid=2589F48419F90EDC6C5F2589F48419F90EDC6C5F&FORM=VRDGAR

Enjoy Kenny G. I keep the volume low as seasonal background music.

Have you noticed that most of this year’s Christmas tv ads are NOT using Christigmas music? Classical rock instead. I hate that!

The sing-songy secular crap I dislike.

the ultra somber religious stuff I absolutely treasure.

Print out some of these and when you go to the store stop out front and sing with Salvation Army bell ringer at the people coming in and out. Have extra copies and see if you can get others to join you. It's fun.

It gets played. It’s just that no one seems to know how to make it anymore.

Here’s something to listen to. A 10 year old Autistic girl with ADHD singing what would be difficult for even trained adult singers. This is The Killard House Special School Choir. It’s really worth hearing http://www.bing.com/videos/search?q=Killard+House+School+Choir+in+Donaghadee%2c+Ireland&view=detail&mid=2275376C139AFC5395442275376C139AFC539544&FORM=VIRE

Click to listen:

Savior of the Nations Come

Savior of the nations, come;
Virgin's Son, make here Thy home!
Marvel now, O heav’n and earth,
That the Lord chose such a birth.

Wondrous birth! O wondrous Child
Of the virgin undefiled!
Though by all the world disowned,
Still to be in heav’n enthroned.

Brightly doth Thy manger shine,
Glorious is its light divine.
Let not sin o’ercloud this light;
Ever be our faith thus bright.

Praise to God the Father sing,
Praise to God the Son, our King,
Praise to God the Spirit be
Ever and eternally.

Click to listen:

All Is Well

Angels and men rejoice
For tonight darkness fell
Into the dawn of love's light
Sing Al-le, sing Alleluia

All is well, all is well
Let there be peace on earth
Christ is come, go and tell
That He is in the manger
Sing Al-le
Sing Al-le, sing Alleluia

All is well, all is well
Lift up your voice and sing
Born is now Emmanuel
Born is our Lord and Savior
Sing Alleluia
Sing Alleluia
All is well

Must depend on where you live. We’ve had stations playing non-stop Christmas music since right after Thanksgiving.

Most cities have at least one station that goes “All Christmas” around Thanksgiving.
