  • The spirit of Christmas comes to life in this obscure 60s vinyl cut from Merle Chives, brought to you via ai music magic.
    Failed country artist and famed children’s entertainer Merle Chives was known for being a jolly old soul…most of the year. “He hated the cover,” producer Kip Flake said of his on and off music partner. “He got in a shouting match with the art department about the snowman smiling and having button eyes instead of coal. They said ‘Merle we’re trying to sell records,’ and Merle said ‘well put this on the record!” and then he threw a chair at the lead designer. Come spring, Merle would be back in the studio making apologies to the staff and the cycle would start all over again the next fall. They hated him in Nashville, so I think he poured his heart out into these kids songs. Maybe a bit too much.”
    The music world would lose Merle Chives in a road rage incident in late 1983, less than a year before Seasonal Affective Disorder was properly defined.

      To prove a point: Back in the early centuries, everyone was happy and smiling, and now in 2024, everyone is depressed and suicidal.

    This is genuinely one of my new favourite Christmas songs! It doesn't even feel fake, this could pass as a real adult Christmas tune!

    I was so disappointed that Thanksgiving was over, and I couldn’t play “It’s too early for Christmas”. Now I have this masterpiece to play throughout the holidays!

    I remember this one. My dad would listen to this song over and over again after pouring out a few at Christmas time. We'd say, "Dad, can't you throw something else on" and he'd say, "Why don't I just throw this instead!" and then toss a Duraflame log at us.
    Sometimes he'd threaten to put coal in our stockings when he got grumpy but we didn't have any coal so he'd just empty my mom's button drawer into our socks.
    The rest of the year he was actually a really nice guy. It was only after he left us we found his diary mentioned that when he was young he watched his mother get trampled by a herd of deer that we figured out why he was like that.

    While the chorus is rough and wordy, it still gets stuck in my head. I was singing "Harvey, the Chronically Depressed Snowman" all morning.

    Never have a good excuse to talk to this, but in the NES version of the arcade game of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles there is an enemy called "Frosty the Hitman" it's been over 30 years, I needed to get this out

      I don't know if you've ever heard of the song "Santa Claus joined the Mafia" by Tim Hawkins, but in it, he references a character named Frosty the Hitman too. 😆

      Why did this get so many likes? Ask an animator to make a music video of this, we would make something WAY BETTER than what AI can spit out.
