HEY KIRK I CANT HEAR THIS THING MAN (kirk i cant hear this thing man)

Have you heard the radio show they did where they have their mics wired through harmonic pedals the whole time? It’s like watching a foreign film without subtitles and touches a similar energy as that good ol’ Mountain Dew

I think the other thing is I used to listen to Wonderful Christmas time with my parents when I was a kid, but I don't recall hearing Lennon's until I was too old to feel nostalgia about it.

I think I have nostalgia over my parents complaining about both. My parents are not Beatles fans, and the Christmas songs in particular. I think my mom hated Lennon’s more, while McCartney’s may be my dad’s all time bottom Christmas song.

I always felt that McCartney's - which I like - was more of just a general "it's Christmas time, here's me and Linda with my synth having a good old time" while Lennon's was just straight bullshit from a rich ding-dong. And this is coming from someone who prefers Lennon over McCartney.

I actually quite like McCartney's synthy experiments from that era, so I'm fond of his despite the inanity. Lennon's is unforgivable though; one thing worse than a tired Xmas staple is a preachy one

McCartney apologists! I kid, and honestly I get it. On paper, Lennon’s is the clearly the worst. It’s ill informed psudeo-activist bunk and actually obnoxious. He’s so preachy despite saying very little. McCartney’s I hate pretty much equally, but it’s largely rooted in personal tastes. Also the fact that it’s a song that I won’t get out of my head until March.
