(I made this post in the Sirius thread, but I think it's huge enough to merit it's own thread. I don't make a habit of doing that, so please, allow me a little latitude.)

I just figured out what's wrong with the Christmas music: THEY'RE NOT PLAYING CHRISTMAS MUSIC! They're playing the politically correct "holiday" music.

Plenty of "Let It Snow", plenty of "Frosty the Snowman".

No "Silent Night", no "Hark, the Herald Angels Sing".

No references to Virgins, mangers, or angels.

I don't have a religious bone in my body, but those are the best songs! I mean, by FAR.

Gene Autrey doing Rudolph is nice, but Michael Crawford doing O Holy Night is downright sublime (if you download one Christmas song this year, make it that one; trust me).

This goes beyond Sirius. I was also disappointed with the Christmas music being played on local radio, and the digital music channels on my cable. Now, I see what the problem is.

Somebody tell Bill O'Reilly!
