When Should Christmas Music Start? Part Two

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at BC chapter.

Christmas is less than a month away! I’m beyond excited for it, and I have been listening to Christmas music since November 1st.

Christmas music is just too cheerful not to be enjoyed only during the week leading up to Christmas Day. Here are a few reasons why Christmas music should be played as soon as November starts.

 

Reason #1:

 

It’s joyful. Christmas music immediately brightens up my mood and makes everything much more enjoyable. No one can be unhappy while singing along to Mariah Carrey’s classic.

 

 

Reason #2:

 

Everyone knows it. There won’t be any awkwardness when you’re the only one who knows the lyrics because everyone knows them! Plus, they’re catchy.

 

 

Reason #3:

 

They come in all different genres. Classics have been remixed and are just as good as the originals. You can enjoy an old-timey Bing Crosby hit or Justin Bieber’s Mistletoe album.

 

 

Reason #4:

 

It’s a great de-stressor. Christmas music calms me and puts me in a relaxed mood. I don’t think of Christmas music without associating it with good times, which is great especially with the upcoming dreaded finals season.

 

Reason #5:

 

It gives you something to look forward to. Thanksgiving doesn’t have such a great repertoire of hits like Christmas does. It preps you for the upcoming season and gets you in the Christmas spirit!
