WeezerFirst of all, I’m fully aware that I’ve slipped a day behind again. Yesterday was rather busy, between seeing a shitty film about dragons and then going for a festive pizza, so I just didn’t get the time to write anything. Lucky for you though, that means you get two festive songs today. Secondly, this is the first time I’ve repeated an artist, and I’ll warn you now that it won’t be the last. I simply don’t have enough Christmas songs that I actually like to fill it out with entirely different artists and songs.

I don’t suppose I need to tell you that this is another miserable Christmas song. I really have to been trying to post some more cheerful ones up here, but I simply don’t seem to have any. Which either says indie artists don’t tend to make happy Christmas music, or that my tastes lean toward the depressing. Or a combination of the two. Maybe I’ll post some cheerful non-Christmas songs as a way of balancing with this lot or something. Anyway, with regards to this song, it’s Rivers complaining about being all alone at Christmas. I don’t think there’s a great deal more I can say about a Christmas song that centres on the line of “here I sit waiting beside the tree all by myself”. Oh Rivers, always so glum.

I’m actually reaching the point where I’ll be glad when this advent thing is over. I’ve got a whole list of artists I want to write about, a bunch of other posts I should be writing and I haven’t even written about our first promoted gig, which I really should get around to given it was coming up on two weeks ago. It is all coming, I’m just not really sure when.
