by Mariah Carey ft. Nicki Minaj: I don’t even know what to say about this video besides it is a hot mess! I miss the old Mariah – you know…the one before Honey! Mariah has become a disappointment. And don’t even get me started on her assistant, Nick! Oh my bad. I meant her husband. I think back to Vision of Love, Emotions, Can’t Let Go, Anytime You Need a Friend, and I Give My All (just to name a few) and those are some PRICELESS jams. Today, I don’t even take the time to download her albums. Even when I can get them for free! I’m really speechless when it comes to Mariah today. Only thing I can say is watch and I hope you can make it thru the whole video. It honestly took me 3 times to make it thru. Be on the lookout for Nick, who was the director and included a special segment from Drum Line. Just whack!

I figured I’d make a list of my top 5 favorite Christmas songs. All of these songs provide a special memory for me and I can remember the first time I heard each song. These are all my favorite songs and I would like to know what your favorite Christmas songs are too! If you have a favorite that I didn’t include in my list, add your song in the comment section.

1. The Temptations’ Silent Night

2. Donny Hathaway’s This Christmas

3. Mariah Carey’s All I Want for Christmas is You

4. Boyz II Men Let it Snow

5. Johnny Gill’s Give Love on Christmas Day

6. Nat King Cole’s The Christmas Song

7. Mannheim Steamroller’s Faeries

8. Vanessa WIlliams’ Baby It’s Cold Outside

9. Stevie Wonder What Christmas Means to Me

10.  Celine Dion O Holy Night

I only picked ten songs, but if I could pick eleven, Favorite Things by Luther Vandross would be my choice! Merry Christmas Baby by B. B. King would be twelve, I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus by the Jackson 5 would be thirteen, and the list goes on..
