10 Reasons Why I Don't Like Christmas Music

I have no idea what it is about Christmas music, but it makes me really sad.

10 Reasons Why I Don't Like Christmas Music
Can I Listen To Christmas Music

I really don't like Christmas music and here are 10 reasons why:

1. It Starts Too Early

It seems every year Christmas music starts earlier and earlier. I understand Christmas is a big deal to department stores, but the music doesn't need to start until December, in my opinion.

2. It All Sounds The Same

Every song is about Santa or what some artists want for Christmas. And it is always extremely upbeat and happy. Maybe we should try some metal Christmas music to add some diversity to our Christmas music listening soundtracks.

3. It Causes You To Forget About Thanksgiving

Oh, Thanksgiving. The most forgotten holiday other than Arbor Day. I'm sorry that I want to eat turkey and mashed potatoes drowned in gravy before I start gorging myself on cookies and candy canes. Also, is it too much to ask for a Thanksgiving song?

4. It Is On Every Station

No matter the station, you will hear Elvis singing Blue Christmas or some Bing Crosby song on every station. Every. Station.

5. Christmas Music Is Used For Everything

And I mean everything. Every commercial, every store. There are even shirts with Christmas lyrics on them.

6. My Sister

I love her, but she loves Christmas way too much... to the point that as soon as Halloween passes, Christmas music begins. It is pure torture.

7. It Is Too Dang Catchy

It is way too catchy to the point I'll be humming it in the shower. I really don't like Christmas music.

8. All The Dang Memes

So every November through December, I always find my Facebook feed filled with Christmas music memes. I understand that other people hate Christmas music, but every time you post a meme about it, I then start thinking about Christmas music.

9. It Makes Me Really Sad

I have no idea what it is about Christmas music, but it makes me really sad. Like maybe it's the slow piano or the soft singing, but I always get really sad whenever I hear Christmas music.

10. I Really Don't Like Christmas Music

So that is really how I feel about Christmas music. I just don't like it. At all.

The Soul of Sound: How AI Challenges Human Expression in Music

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
