Countdown to Christmas: Christmas Music

[packerbacker180]

Wham! is the best Christmas song ever, no argument. I can no longer hear Do They Know it's Christmas without hearing the Venture Bros. version in my head, especially Dean saying, "Thanks God". It's actually the superior version.



This was something I heard a bunch when I worked part time at Kohls a few years ago....

All of those are good Acid & PB

Gosh PB, I didn't know you worked at Kohl's

I just came across this today while looking for Christmas cartoon clips so I thought I'd share it here as well in case someone missed it because they aren't following the cartoon thread like good little girls and boys...enjoy!

Never seen that one before, that guy did a good dub

[packerbacker180]

I'll throw another one out there....

[BrandonDaCollector]

Wow PB, I never saw that before I thought it was a cute and cleverly done video Brought back memories of Run DMC! They were the first I saw in a group. I remember seeing them at Wrestlemania V and I loved their Ghostbusters II song back in 89! Really cool PB

We kind of did a soft start of these topics last year with some music to set the mood. Sometimes it feels like just me and Brandon are going around and around in these threads.



Rather than start up a new one this year, I figured we'd just continue with last year's model since it already contains some pretty good Christmas songs, and that way we don't have to repeat them. So press, play rock around the Christmas tree, you grinch.



I loved this song when I was a kid. Back then we didn't have google so we just called it the Snoopy song. It wasn't until years later I actually learned who sang it. Still, it's one of my favs.

Hmmm... Here's one that comes to mind.

Futurama's somewhat dystopian version of Christmas where Santa Claus is an evil robot.

Yeah PB, I know. Its just not Us & Acid, there's other here that just come and go and they skip all of our great content...what a shame

Thems are are good. Snoopy rocks! FUTURAMA!

OK, well PB, you posted Die Hard...well you cannot talk about Die Hard and NOT talk about the superb score by the legendary Michael Kamen Surely your familiar with him? He did the first 3 Die Hard films and all 4 Lethal Weapon movies, Event Horizon. The MORGAN CREEK theme is actually his superb Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves theme and so much more and was best friends with Metallica & conducted their awesome S&M Concert in 1999! I was so sad when Kamen died it 2003 He was so brilliant & great

I hope you PB & Acid give this a shot cause we just don't talk about movie music scores enough here, I mean I'm trying to! You see a pic of him right away here in this suite...listen to this action Christmas masterpiece Give Me your thoughts please
