Is the Lizzo Christmas song the best Christmas song of all time tho?

If you’re a day one ponger I’m sure you remember this post about our favorite Lizzo gem from before she was recognized as the all-encompassing force that is the world-reknowned Lizzo. And now I’m back with more Lizzo praise. Alright like, I know we all want to hear Chestnuts roasting on an open fire and that song that goes rapumpapumpum at Christmastime, but, can we at least say, that this song slaps the hardest?

Now I know the haters (Kevin, Paul, Jessica, Norm, Sandra, to anonymously name a few past hater names from the DMs) are going to reference this earlier post I did about how great All I Want For Christmas Is You is. But to those haters (Kevin, Paul, Jessica, Norm, Sandra) I say that… I wish you a happy holiday, God bless. I won’t be lowered to your coal-stuffed stocking standards.

Anyways, check out JPG’s blog and playlist for more new indie Christmas songs from this year. Which frankly I have no idea how he found and aggregated so effectively, but I guess that’s the kind of shit you get when you listen to over 8,000 artists in 2020 and over 223,000 minutes. …

The Next Big Thing – Northeast Party House

Can we just talk about how hot these three singles are? These guys have been around for around ten years and seem to have a pretty big following in their homeland of Australia (Pong) so they’re not exactly new, but they straight up firework exploded onto my radar with this first song ‘Shelf Life’- song of the year so far, easy.

What’s even going on here, I feel like I just spent a full calendar year on the dancefloor and when I finally left I was older and no longer on my parents health insurance and now had bills to pay and maybe my first gray hair. I’m straight dancing at my computer right now son. Song is making me feel like a 9 year old at Leaps and Bounds (Chi town stand up) who just tried coffee for the first time.

Then we’ve got this track, Dominos.

Like who even are these guys? I’m gonna need the whole crew to roll through LA ASAP and so I can finally reach my penultimate moment where my brain explodes on the dancefloor like that Andy Samberg SNL sketch with the DJ.

Compared to their older stuff, I’m getting the feeling that these new songs are a little less warm and touching and instead pack a DGAF edge over some sharper and shinier backing tracks. I can’t see these guys staying under the radar in the US for much longer, these singles are amazing.
