Related, why did the radio decide Favorite Things from The Sound of Music was a Christmas song? It bugs me just as much.

The references go gift-wrapped packages, I guess?

nayrt

And mentions of sleigh bells, snowflakes and winters probably.

But even with those, it's kind of a stretch.

There's quite a few songs that have become associated with Christmas but were previously something else. What we currently call the Carol of the Bells is based on pagan music from Eastern Europe. Greensleeves is one people kind of remember if they think about it - because the Christian lyrics haven't completely displaced the older song. Even Jingle Bells was about fall and sleigh racing in the 1800's, before the US went through a phase of "we need more Christmas music!" in the 1930's and 1940's.

Above is a DA, by the way.

Handel's Messiah used to be traditionally performed on Easter instead of Xmas.

[(Anonymous)]

some parts of the Messiah work better in terms of Christmas tho, like the whole 'unto us, a child is given' sequence and such. but it could really go either way.
