Christmas Songs: Who? What? When? Where? Why?

Release Date:

Christmas Songs:  Who?  What?  When? Where? This is a discussion of the fifty-one most popular Christmas songs, when they were written, what themes they contain, and how the patterns of favorite Christmas songs changed over the centuries. This is short, but you might find it an interesting approach to Christmas songs.  Please remember I am a social scientist.  I count things for a living. I hope you enjoy this. And don’t forget, “melekelekemaka is the island way . . . “ (And I hope you will forgive my inept efforts to sing a couple of those songs). Question:  Do you wonder what would emerge is someone did this analysis is another country:  England, Spain, Brazil, Palestine, Lebanon, Poland, Russia, Serbia, Albania, Nigeria.  Hmm. ps.  Someone pointed out that this list skips Carley Simon's song, All I want for Christmas is You.  That certainly makes the point, that there are demographic factors at work in this list.
