Each year I try to see how long it takes before I hear "Blue Christmas" by Elvis. This year I heard it two days ago, which is the earliest so far. It wasn't the whole song, just part of a TV ad for Christmas CD's featuring songs that avoided the real meaning of the holiday, or really had nothing to do with it, such as Jingle Bells, Let It Snow, tunes that are appropriate in Jan. or Feb. or any time if you live near the Arctic, or in the summer if you live in Australia. Amyway, Blue Christmas is, to me, the anti-Christmas song, especially sung by Elvis. I believe it was written by Satanists and Elvis was under their influence at the time he recorded it.
