Christmas in San Francisco
I've heard this version on the radio (KOIT), but also an updated version as well, in which some of the lyrics are updated ("Jazz in the Fillmore"). As soon as I heard it for the first time (which was this month), I was annoyed. My reaction hasn't really mellowed since then. It's a sappy 'holiday' song trading on nostalgia, and sounds exactly like cheap lounge music - a Christmas song, like many others, which is focused on us and glorifying our mundane experiences, instead of Christ. Some may think of it is a "golden oldie," but it's another isntance of our cultural and civilization decline.
