Hey guys - what's your favorite holiday song released in 2017?

We generally don't get to hear a lot of new works until the following year. Jason Ager's "Santapause" is our fave, but we'd love some input from you.

We begin our Holiday Song Countdown on Friday. But until then, please enjoy this thread from our new hero Ken McGraw.

We're on Facebook too, sir, and have no intentions of kicking you out.

I’m in an insane Facebook Christmas group and they are gearing up for Christmas in July. I haven’t been kicked out of the group yet, but I’m trying very hard. A THREAD

You know why Die Hard 2 isn't considered a Christmas Classic like the original? Because of that wack-ass moment toward the end where the pilots say "if they can do it, WE can do it!" Also it's not very good.

Day 16 of #200DaysofXmas: "We Three Kings" by Book of Love. The legendary Philly new-wave band delivers an infectiously fun danceable version of the old carol.

This should read Day 15, not Day 12.

We must have been looking in a mirror or something.

Some people claim the Sistine Chapel is the peak of human made beauty.
