It’s Coming On Christmas

Sunday, December 6th, 2009

I’ve been fas­ci­na­ted with these lyrics from first expo­sure, at age 13. River is more of a sta­te­ment of life (anyone’s life, everyone’s life), than a holi­day song, yet what are the holi­days for if not for poe­ti­cally pon­de­ring our misery, for­tune, mis­ta­kes, and ourselves.

I’m offe­ring mul­ti­ple choice this eve­ning. I don’t have Robert Dow­ney Junior’s ver­sion, so I embed­ded his ren­di­tion at the top of the heap.

Enjoy.
