but i guess playing christian music even though your a ex-christian and secular
is kind of contradictory.
It certainly is! But there is something about Christmas music that gets me jazzed. But perhaps it comes down to the way I was raised. Christmas really had very little to do with Jesus. Imagine that?! Except the music, which was illusive as a child, was the only thing within my household that emphasized some Jesus dude...oh and the nativity set. But other than that and church meetings, Christmas was all about Santa, food, family, and presents. haha.

There are only two things I dislike about it; the first is that women stop wearing sandals when they go out (I live in Chicago), and the second is the music, mostly because of the fact that on Christmas radio there seem to be less than 100 different songs repeated ad nauseam for months on end. It's really saying something that of all the Christmas songs to have caught on to any meaningful degree in the quarter of a century since I was born, the best was written by Justin Motherfucking Bieber.

And if anyone is disgusted that I just used "best" and "Justin Bieber" in the same sentence, don't be alarmed. That is only a sign that you are still sane. I myself feel bile hemorrhaging throughout my entire body at what I have just done.
Hahaha, I can't help but agree with you. Christmas music does get pretty repetitious, but I don't touch the stuff till thanksgiving day and abandon it the 26th of December. But I love all the different renditions and interpretations of any one particular Christmas song. There's a lot to improvise!
