Santa Claus is Coming to Town for Christmas Number One 2009! (not X-Factor)
It’s getting close to Christmas 2009 and once again it looks like X-Factor is going to be the christmas number one, regardless of what else comes up. I’m not sure about you but I feel it’s time for a traditional christmas song again, no more random song for christmas, it’s time for a real christmas song, and while there are plenty of options, I feel Santa Claus is Coming to Town by Bruce Springsteen has real potential, it embodies all that christmas has to offer. It’s certainly “christmasy” (Santa Claus, come on!) and it’s a happy song, it just embodies the feeling of christmas superbly.
So many people now just go out and get the latest number one at christmas, regardless of the context of the song. Children now have no idea of the true christmas feeling, the family gathering today to listen to a christmas album that actually has songs about christmas rather than being a depressing song about bleeding love.
It’s almost christmas which means soon enough will be time to start buying your CD’s or your MP3’s, so I urge you, don’t waste your money on the X-Factor song (just turn the radio on any hour on any station, you’ll get it for free pretty much any time you like!), spend money on something that embodies the true spirit of christmas, buy Santa Claus Is Coming To Town by Bruce Springsteen.
You better watch out
You better not cry
Better not pout
I’m telling you why
Santa Claus is coming to town…
And to help you out, here’s some ways to buy it:
Amazon – Santa Claus Is Comin’ To Town (Single Version) – MP3
Bruce Springsteen – Santa Claus Is Comin’ to Town
And finally, because it is the 21st century and we have Youtube:
Edit: My friend at work Dan (who I was discussing this with today) has blogged about it too and he made a good point I missed out, don’t buy it yet! It needs to be bought in the 2 weeks prior to Christmas so it stands a change of being Christmas number one 2009. We can do this, we can get it to number one this year! Please please, if you have a blog, link to this article or to Dan’s. If you don’t, tweet about it or put it on your face book page. Spread the word!
