I had heard the song in the first time in ever but it just made me slightly depressed, knowing that ubiquitous 'Merry Xmas Everybody' is around the corner, I ahd not thought of that song this year yet. I really, really hate it. And as far as the "cheering up a depressed nation" arg goes - if the whole nation was really in as miserable state as that the LAST thing I would want to hear is a nasty, intrusive song like this.
I mean, I hate Xmas as well, which probably explains 100% of it.
Anything else known about the would-be power-sharer if-we-can-rewrite-the-constitution-and-Musharraf-doesn't-renege's musical tastes? This could influence how I vote (if I had a vote).
Note to self: Search for 50,000-word college essay on the significance of Scorsese's using Mott's "All The Way From Memphis" as evocation of Dylanesque-Memphis-What-Thing-Ever-Elusive-Superword dream in Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore, Monterey being Alice's Memphis Dream Again until she recognizes the actual inviting mundane Kristofferson reality, leaving budding adolescents Tommy and Audrey to dance into the unknown, elusive future. (And whatever happened to Alfred Lutter, anyway? Whipcrack comic timing. QUICK GOOGLE SEARCH. Not what I was expecting: "Provided the strategic vision and architectural design for the integration of legacy banking systems with a modern scaleable and reliable web application system for E*Offering.")
