So, when this DJ on TikTok (DJ Vic) posted a mash-up of Ella Langley’s latest hit “Choosin’ Texas” mashed up with Wham’s “Last Christmas”, I was excited… but I did NOT expect it to be this good.
They’re pretty much making things merry and bright this holiday season by using AI for the best purpose I can think of: Recreating holiday classics using famous rock artists and nailing it.
Case in point, a Radiohead version of “Santa Calus is Coming to Town”:
That being said, this needs to be added to your holiday playlist STAT.
“There I Ruined It”- one of my favorite online creators- just did a version of “Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer” in the style of Creed, and I am living for it:
Need a highly inappropriate song to add to your holiday playlist?
I got you, boo.
“There, I Ruind It”- on of my favorite creators- just dropped a mash-up, and it’s glorious.
I presnt to you, “Move B*tch, it’s Cold Outside” – which combines the controversial holiday classic “Baby, it’s Cold Outside” with Ludacris’s “Move, Bitch”.
We needed this:
Honestly, I was never a fan of either tune, so I actually prefer this.
With the holiday season in full swing, we’re getting a lot of new holiday tunes, but I have to say that this mash-up of Flo-Rida’s “Low” and “Little Drummer Boy” may just be my new favorite:
I mean… how great is that, though?
And it’s been in my head all day, and I’m not even a little mad about it.
And we just got a beautiful new Christmas song from Michael Buble and Country Star Carly Pearce called “Maybe This Christmas”, and I absolutely love it!
First of all, you can’t go wrong with these two mega-talents.
Secondly, I love that it’s a more somber, poignant song, which differentiates itself from the usually overly cheerful holiday tunes that dominate during the season.
It’s a reminder that not everyone is feeling super festive, and many are lonely during these times. I’ve been there myself, being an Army wife and spending holidays with my husband overseas, and away from my family.
Just a different perspective for the holidays, and completely necessary in my opinion.
Also, remember those deployed durng the holidays, and their families back home- this song definitely makes me think of them all.
And as one of the lines in the song states, “I wish you all the love that your heart can hold”.
A few weeks ago, Walker Hayes dropped a holiday version of his smash-hit “Fancy Like” called “Fancy Like Christmas” and it was absolutely perfect! So, of course, I’ve been waiting for the video to come out, and I am NOT disappointed.
Isn’t that great? I love Walker’s relateable sense of humor, and how he involves his family in all of his videos and socials.
Hopefully that puts a smile on your face this holiday season!
Also, I got to chat with Walker Hayes on the show last week, and he is seriously the BEST.
So, last week, Walker Hayes dropped a holiday-parody of his massive Country-Crossover hit “Fancy Like” called “Fancy Like Christmas” and it is absoluely PERFECT!:
Isn’t that great? “Go Jesus, It’s Yo Birthday”!
So, I was really excited to get a chance to catch up with Walker. The last time we chatted was right before “Fancy Like” broke big, and A LOT has changed since then. Check the interview below:
It’s always a treat to get to talk to Walker Hayes. He’s he nicest, most down-o-Earth guy, and he is super-fun to follow on instagram, too. I am so incrdible happy for all of his success, and I can’t wait to see what happens next! I love seeing good things happen to good people. We need more of that!
So far, the new holiday tunes this year haven’t disappointed. Jason and Travis Kelce (Of the Philadelphia Eagles and Kansas City Chiefs) are keeping that Christmas ball rolling with a duet called “Fairytale of Philadelphia”.
It’s a take on “Fairytale of New York” by The Pogues, and it’s for the deluxe version of the album “A Philly Special Christmas”.
And you know what?
It doesn’t suck.
They don’t sound too bad, do they? I love how different their voices are. And it makes sencheer for theEaglesse since they’re brothers, and Philadelphia is the “City of Brotherly Love”.
Fun fact: although I grew up in West TN, I was born in the Philly area, and moved to Tennessee when I was 9. So, my entire family cheers for The Eagles. However, with a large portion of my life in KC and Kansas in general, I am for the Chiefs.
Also, here’s some behind the scenes to see how this all came about:
