Every time I see the movie, I can't get the song out of my head and sing it all day long!

 

 feel it in my fingers,
I feel it in my toes,
Christmas is all around me,
and so the feeling grows

It's written in the wind,
It's everywhere I go,
So if you really love Christmas,
C'mon and let it snow?

You know I love Christmas
I always will
My mind's made up
The way that I feel
There's no beginning
There'll be no end
Cuz on Christmas,
You can depend

You gave your presents to me
And I gave mine to you
I need Santa beside me
In everything I do

You know I love Christmas
I always will
My mind's made up
The way that I feel
There's no beginning
There'll be no end
Cuz on Christmas,
You can depend

Cuz on Christmas,
You can depend

It's written on the wind
It's everywhere I go
So if you really love me
C'mon and let it snow?
C'mon and let it snow?
So if you really love
C'mon and let it
If you really love me
C'mon and let it
Now if you really love me
C'mon and let it snow?

I like the song, not the movie.  Wifey loves it, so I get subjected to it every year.  That, and "while you were sleeping".  Ick..

How dare you equate "Love, Actually" to "While You Were Sleeping"...I'd send Roger Ebert around with a horse's head to leave in your bed...if, er, he weren't too debilitated to carry one...

I'm on the fence because it does teach a "Christmas lesson" as the point of the movie.

That song drives me nuts.

It's a rework of a song by Wet Wet Wet that was on the UK charts for some ridiculous amount of time back in the 90's (I think it was the theme for that 'Four Weddings and a Funeral' movie that also had Hugh Grant in it), and you just couldn't get away from it on the radio at the time.

 

Oh, and the thread focus: Gremlins.
