I love old movies and songs, I watch them and listen to them as if i have lived in those times but I never did. Fortunately, my parents introduced me to tons of movies from the 70s and 80s and I love them. Blood is not water my friend, its in our blood that we like those things and somehow we are connected.

You really missed out brother, these past times were the best. But hey, get you a squirrel and turn it loose in your home Christmas Eve, be sure to film it!!! Sometimes I wish I was 7 years old again... Such great times.
Cark : Can I refill your eggnog for you? Get you something to eat? Drive you out to the middle of nowhere and leave you for dead? Eddie : Naw, I'm doing just fine, Clark.
Hey Griswold where are you going to put a tree that big.. bend over and I'll show you well you got a lot of nerve talking to me like that... I wasn't talking to you
Where you gonna put that thing Griswald?! Bend over and I’ll show you.. You gotta lot nerve talking to me like that. Wasn’t talking to you * looks at Margo *
It’s a tradition in my family to watch it the day after thanksgiving after we decorate our house and put up our tree! Eating left over thanksgiving food and watching this moving 🥰 I’ve watched it every year since I was 5 and not stopping this tradition anytime soon. I’m 22 and I make my boyfriend watch it with me!
Every year in December, I watch this movie because it remains to this day one of the best Christmas movies ever made, without a doubt! Merry Christmas 2022! 🎄🎁🎅
Hands down my favorite damn Christmas movie. Watching this as an adult for the first time was probably the most genuinely entertained I have ever been by a movie! Merry Christmas!
I dedicate this Christmas song to my dear cousin Arthur Geter III. For all of the wonderful times of watching this wonderful comedy Christmas movie. He was the one who got us all on to this wonderful timeless Christmas film. Rest in peace dear big brother.
When I was in high school as they released us on the last day before Christmas break, they'd play this song over the intercom. It didn't have to be done but they payed attention to the details. Such a simple thing that brought us all a lot of joy.
I had a tough 9 year holiday hiatus and every time I see this movie and hear this song, I tell my self "one day my spirit for the holidays will be back"...I think it's time to come back to spread that old Christmas spirit of mine once again.
Gm, ion know you but I have been in a 10+ year slump where I have allowed my wants to take over my needs. I'm getting my spirit back and my comeback will way stronger than it's ever been. Peace and blessings to you! 🙏
I've been going through a stretch of years of tough times during the holidays, and as I was going through the comments I said the same exact thing as your comment right as I scrolled upon it.
“ThEY WaNt YoU To SaY tHe BLeSsiNg” “WhAt” “ThE bLEssInG” “Oh” “I Pledge of Allegiance to the flag of theUnited States of America and to the republic for which Ed stands one nation under God indivisible with liberty and justice for all”
+carson dugger this movie is as old as me, lol. was released in 1989. But I've only seen it once. I remember the part when he lights up the lights on the house and the Hallelujah Chorus plays.
+Stephen R For me my family watch it every Christmas eve as a family trdishion we been doing it for 20 years ever sense my first Christmas. its properly one of my all time fav movies xD
+Raven The Shadow Neko I just recently saw it again a few days ago and it was pretty good. The part when the cat got electrocuted was pretty morbid but still funny. I'm sure my dad was almost peeing his pants laughing at that when he first saw it. Cats always make him laugh. Clark's senile aunt was pretty funny too. :)
That has to be one of my most favorite Christmas movies. It's the first Christmas movie I watch before I watch any other, and it's the last Christmas movie I watch.
whet what she died ? and i know the guy that played the Dad died after he played Farther Time in the Santa Clause 2 Peter Boyle but i did not know that the Mom died too.
Every time I step into my car, and start my drive home after the last day of the first semester I have to play this song as loud as can be! Here's to us teachers on Christmas vacation 2021! May 2022 bring better days!
"Hey Griswald where ya gonna put a tree that big?"------"Bend over and ill show you"............. "hey you cant talk to my husband like that"------- "I wasnt talking to him" 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
"Hey,Griswold, were are you going to put a tree that big?!?" "Bend over and I'll show ya!" "You've got a lot of nerve talking to me like that Griswold!" "I wasn't talking to you..." The camera pans over to Todd's wife...
I was given a DVD of this film back in primary school (Which was nearly 10 years ago). Never watched it until yesterday, and I have to say the song is really awesome!
I remember recording this masterpiece on VHS here in Mendoza (Argentina) from HBO Olé. Me and my mom do love it. It's a pleasure to watch it over and over. Gags every two minutes, funny faces (Beverly's ones are superb), and the presence of Mae Quest... This is THE Christmas movie, no doubt about it.
Incredibly appropriate movie cover lol. For some reason, it took me a long time to realize how much I like this song. As for the movie, I liked it as a kid, when it came out, and I only liked it more as I aged and learned the humor I previously didn’t understand. I had no idea for a long time that Clark doesn’t like Eddie lol.
I have this movie playing on the tv in my bedroom year-round! I can't go to sleep without it! I also put it on when I'm having a panic attack, and it cures it right away! :) My #1 movie of all time!
it makes no difference how bad my my day is, listening to this song sometimes 4 to 5 times cheers me up any day of the year. And the movie will always be a classic to me.
One of my wife and mine's favorite Christmas movies, along with Jingle all the way, Home Alone, A Christmas Story, and Mixed Nuts. Planes, trains and automobiles and Uncle Buck are other good holiday season movies :)
Ok I'm in my feelings cause Spotify doesn't have this version of the song to add to my Christmas Playlist. How are you not gonna have it? Its sooo good.
Anyone else agree this is one of the greatest Christmas songs ever? Actually gets me in the spirit.
Yep me too!

Yeah kinda makes me want to put ridiculously bright lights on my house 🤣🤣
