A day after Halloween .
You'd think that Christmas music wouldn't start on the radio 'till around Thanksgiving, but you'd be wrong. Here in Lexington, KY one radio station (Mix 94.5) just can't wait for Christmas, so they started playing Christmas music early (starting today).
I think it's crazy, but it's kind of nice to know that there's a radio station dedicated to holiday music--two months out of the year. It was kind of weird (weird to me) to be listening to that station today. I got in my truck, rolled the driver side window half way down (the truck was hot because it was parked in the sun and my truck doesn't have AC), and it was a bright, sunny day with a bright blue sky. I drove home listening to Christmas music. I couldn't really get in the Christmas mood, though. The weather was just too nice for me to really think of Christmas seriously.
Just wanted to share the news that Christmas music is officially here (in Lexington anyways) and wish all of you all a Merry Christmas!
If you wanna, we could all list our favorite Christmas song and/or favorite Disney Christmas stuff. I'll start out. I have a Coca-Cola plastic mug thing with Mickey, Minny, Goofy, Daisy, and Donald (I think they are all on it) that I got in Disney World for free in '07. I got it from Cosmic Rays Starlight Cafe'. One of my favorite Christmas songs is John Lennon's "Happy Christmas."

Re: Christmas music on the radio.
I look at it this way. A few years ago the stores here (Chattanooga) had Christmas decoration up on September 1. I agree this is much to early, but it could worse. Some of the TV channels are starting to play Christmas movies!!

I have also seen one Target Christmas commercial (twice) and my family has the Toys r Us Christmas toy magazine that was sent to us in the mail.
Christmas has been coming earlier and earlier each year. Kind of takes the fun out of it.

Re: Christmas music on the radio.
I stepped into a popular department store the other night and they were playing Christmas music...to my surprise I enjoyed it . One of my faves is Sting's version of "The Angel Gabriel". That might not be the correct title. I have so many, depends what mood I'm in. Sometimes I would rather just hear all the classics sung by Perry Como .
