Rudolph The Red Nose Reindeer

     

     Rudolph makes the headline because of the bullying from the other reindeers. Yes, I said 'deers', get the hell over it. Anyway, the movie was made in 1964 by Romeo Muller and the song was written by Johnny Marks in 1939. And has been a Christmas TV favorite for many years. I mean it says in the song that he used to be bullied and they're just now realizing that? 

      I mean I do understand where they're coming from, but like I said above, it's in the song. I mean I reckon they're coming from the fact that what if it wasn't a foggy night, would they still be teasing Rudolph to this day? Would Santa intervene? But then how come he didn't intervene before and let it continue? According to the song, even Santa doesn't acknowledge Rudolph until he needs him. Who knows, but what I do know, he saves Christmas and the bullies finally respect him. 

Baby, It's Cold Outside

     This Christmas song is featured in a movie called 'Neptune's Daughter in 1949. It was written by Frank Lesser in 1944.
     I'll be honest, I"'ve never heard this song, but what I found out is the song is about a woman hung out with her boyfriend at his house and she wants to leave, but he doesn't want her to go. She eventually gives in and stays. I mean looking at the lyrics I can understand at a certain point how he manipulates her into staying, but also you gotta understand this was written in the early '40s; a whole nother time.
      A radio station banned the song because of this damn #metoo crap. More and more stations are banning the song every day. Radio Station Article
     Frank's daughter Susan spoke up and said he wrote that song for her parents to sing at parties. And that people back then would say 'what's in my drink' as a joke. Never even considered that you could be drugged. Susan Lesser
