Here’s an analogy for ya… Kenny Chesney is to tropical country music as Pentatonix is to… Christmas music, duh! The ensemble is back for Christmas this year with a song I didn’t expect to love as much as I do. But what can I say, I’m a Christmas-music-year-round kind of guy. The music video doesn’t really make the song better or worse, which might be exactly what they wanted– leaving the visual interpretation up to the listeners own imagination. Take a look and a listen then scroll down for more…
It’s impossible to determine whether this will be a Christmas classic but at the very least, Pentatonix fans are loving it and I am, too. It reminds me of the first time I heard this Christmas song from The Killers a couple of Christmases ago. Within a few repeat listens, it became my favorite Christmas song that year and remains at the top to this very day.
What are your thoughts on “Christmas in the City” by Pentatonix? Don’t let the line “1…2…3…” bother you like it bothers me. It was written that way so they could make a rhyme but even Santa’s elves know that for a tree lighting ceremony, people count down, “3…2…1…” but I digress.
Merry Christmas!
