Song: Pure Imagination/Christmas Time is Here
Artist: Pentatonix

It's another *NEW SONG* reaction video! I mean, I know both of these songs, but this is my first time hearing this mashup from my favorites, Pentatonix's *BRAND NEW* CHRISTMAS ALBUM!! ðŸŽ‰

Ideally I would have done an album review before sharing any of the new music, and I still plan on doing one soon, but I'm kind of desperate for song choices right now. 😬 Yeah, still in my music funk. Since they just released the music video a few days ago and I spent the weekend putting up Christmas decorations and doing Christmas themed activities with my family, I thought this would be a fitting song to share as Christmastime is truly HERE!! I can't wait to hear this song!! 

FIRST TIME LISTENING LIVE REACTION: OK seriously...WHAT IS WRONG WITH ME?? 😭 I DON'T love it!! 😲😳😭 I don't know why!! There was just something off about it to me. I liked the little transition between songs but I didn't really like the songs themselves. WHY?? WHYWHYWHY??? I haven't felt this way about a Pentatonix Christmas song....EVER! Maybe it will grow on me? I hope so! I love both of these songs I just didn't really like the arrangement which is UNHEARD OF!! 

I think I'm just not in the best headspace right now. I'm still processing my emotions about the recent death in my neighborhood. It's been an emotional week and it was brought up at church which brought up more emotions. And every single night I feel so depressed and anxious. I'm not getting enough sleep and I feel overwhelmed and stressed out about everything! I'm disappointed in myself. I feel guilty for not doing more for others. I feel sad, stressed, guilty and anxious that I'm still struggling to adjust to my new dog and figure out my relationship with her. Everything's just making me sad. I need help.

Sorry about the rant. I'm sad I didn't immediately fall in love with this song. I wanted to. I just couldn't. I can't force myself. I'll give it time but for now it's a 3.5 for me. 😓


Christmas time is here
Happiness and cheer
Fun for all that children call
Their favorite time of year

Snowflakes in the air
Carols everywhere
Olden times and ancient rhymes
Of love and dreams to share

Sleigh bells in the air
Beauty everywhere
Yuletide by the fireside
And joyful memories there

Christmas time is here
Families growing near
Oh that we could always see
Such spirit through the year

If you wanna view paradise
Simply look around and view it
Anything you want to, do it
Wanna change the world?
There’s nothing to it

Morticia and Gomez Addams Love Song: "Rot Next to You"

Song: Morticia and Gomez Addams Love Song: "Rot Next to You" Artist: The Hound + The Fox Wow this is so good! 🥀 So, funny enough, I just watched the 1990's Addams Family film for the first time eva a couple days ago and then  this video pops up on my youtube feed (if this isn't proof that the government is stalking us through technology IDK what is! 😱). Anyway, even though I didn't care for the movie all that much, I thought this song captured Morticia and Gomez perfectly! And it's actually a really, beautiful love song for Halloween time! I especially like the bridge (and I'm pretty sure it's a direct quote from the movie because when I heard them singing it I was like "That sounds familiar...." 🤔). We all need somebody to rot next to at the end.... 😂 Sorry about the dark humor 😈🖤🥀 I see you like  A night with a full moon  I feel you like a flame  You cast a spell on me  I like how you make me weak  I play you like a game  I hope w

Siren Call

Song: Siren Call Artist: Hanson This song is off of Hanson's Fan Club EP: Loud (2016). I have been slightly obsessed with this haunting song as of late. This song is about dealing with depression ( Zac Hanson even said so ! Be forewarned, explicit language is used in this video. I'm so sorry). Once I heard Zac explain the meaning and message behind this song it made so much sense to me! I have always loved it and I've always known it had a powerful message but I could never quite figure out what it was. This song is about struggling. Being weighed-down by the burdens and challenges life brings to each and every one of us. When we stop and allow ourselves to "give in" to the pain and sadness that comes with the stress of life, that's when we begin to slip and fall into a deep depression. That's when our "Siren's Call" us. And pull us down. No straighter path than to struggle .... This is perfect. And it's true. Life is a constan

Sally's Song and Corpse Bride Medley

Song: Sally's Song and Corpse Bride Medley Artist: From Youtube I found this really creepy, cool medley/cover on youtube. I really like it! Major  Halloween  vibes from two  Halloween  inspired movies. The  Corpse Bride  lyrics were written by the person who posted/sang this song. She does a great job! Thanks for sharing  Trickywi ! I sense there's something in the wind That feels like tragedy's at hand And though I'd like to stand by him Can't shake this feeling that I have The worst is just around the bend And does he notice my feelings for him? And will he see how much he means to me? I think it's not to be Under a tree at quarter three, I had some hope in me But life was taken from me, but I did not feel peace I made a vow within my gown that love will come to me But there he is and suddenly I had been found I adore him What will become of my dear friend Where will his actions lead us then? Although I'd like to join the crowd In their enth
