We get so excited trimming the tree that we remember trim means something naughty….
Gentle jazz launches John Brown into the mood to “Decorate Your Christmas Tree.” With naughty lines like ‘make love to you’… you have to wonder what he wants with a tree.
Twiztid hollas to all the Juggalos and Juggalettes “Decorate Your Christmas Tree.” The tree here is female pubic hair. The decoration is the male sex act. You got it? BLUE BLUE and more BLUE
Sharon Jones & the Dap-Kings sing a song of soul. “Big Bulbs” is all about the party, baby.
Also ’50s, Jimmy Butler jelly rolls the blues with “Trim Your Tree.” Is this music as much fun a s sex? Someone tell Mojo Nixon who just drunkenfies this tune.

A regular Xmas tradition from the Johnboy & Billy Morning show, Nonge Shipman simply strums the folk ballad “Christmas Balls.” You’ve heard it.

So, would you like to meet your tree? Strike up the band!
Gene London pitched the idea of being a Christmas tree his own self in “A Walking Talking Christmas Tree.” Hang a star! ’60s pop. (Tip of the pointy hat to Pete the Elf for connecting me to that one.)
As Thoreau said: personify, personify, personify. Wild Man Fisher screams it best with his original “I’m a Christmas Tree” (although some of you might know his developed duet with Dr. Demento a bit better).

More listenable comes Solea Pfeiffer with “Christmas Tree Blues.” Funny for the hollerin’ blues

…so please enjoy the song in it’s 1/2 minute micro-entirety.
Let’s shovel the ‘Frosty’ parodies off the lot right away. Most of those are drug-related and i’ve done what i can to eliminate all coke=snow songs from the last couple months. Most of the others are amateurish at best. Here are some i can stand.
BLUE ALERT Afroman has studied the naughty “Frosty” and discerned it’s sexual habits. Learn, if you dare.
Don Ohman (‘The Singing Roofer’) is also misogynisticly offensive with “New Years: Frozen the Snowwoman Song.” She was asking for it, dressing like that.
Back to BLUE ALERTs Roy ‘Chubby’ Brown goes low class UK with obscene carol parodies, staring with “Frosty.” Crude, rude, and bawdy parts galore. John Valby does more or less then same thing, without as much anatomica.
Matt Rogers’s overused “Frosty the Pervert” rounds out the trifecta of BLUE ALERTs. That’s enough, boys.
Bubba Claus pretends he’s drunk singing “Frosty the Beer Mug.” Apart from a strip poker ref, blue-free tawdriness.

Dreamy psychedelia, “The Waving Snowman,” make The Wytches the band to watch.
Gregory Scott Slay bases his “Visit with a Snowman” on a visit with a snowman. More psychedelic rock with a metal backbeat. Snowman laid down this track, too. BLUE ALERT

Odd but danceable, “Ex-Snowman” by Big City fills you required ironic pop daily allowance.

Let’s end our detour around the Abominable Snowman angry and loud.
And a BLUE ALERT. Briss Mula starts out kidding around (is that a Scandinavian accent?), but his hiphop hits hard into thug life. Life is cold, so “Abominable Snowman.”
Paul Graves lightens the mood with a thrashing metal narration of a Himalayan standoff in his “Abominable Snowman.” Nearly melodic.
Commending the Fallen turn up the death on their metal with their “Abominable Snowman.” Is that just gargling?
Impaler enunciates for our pleasure with their classic metal “Abominable Snowman.” At least to start with. Violent content! Just like life!
The lack of snow is not just another day in December… it makes a statement.

Stefanie Eskew bemoans inappropriate tropical paradises with her hard folk “No Snow.”

Let’s start out slowly: “The First Snowball of the Season” is a baseball themed puffery by The Golden Orchestra & Singers. Strike One!
Off topically, Devo has a philosophically angst number “Snowball.” Electronica whene’er we can.
The tots’ ode to “Snowball Fight” has lyrics by Alan Katz to the so-called tune of ‘Jingle Bells.’ Should we teach this?
Gateway Christian Academy has their Snow Day announcement as a parody of Rachel Platten’s ‘Fight Song’ aka “Snowball Fight Song.” Hilarious revenge tactics for a church-sponsored children’s notice.

Let’s calm it down with a young woman, a piano, and Xmas lights. A spark of hope in the horror, a wisp of snow in the night, doddlevloggle’s “Smile at the Snow.” Poignant and homey show tune just for you.
