Almost everyone who celebrates would probably agree that Christmas is not quite complete without the massive catalogue of music that makes up the soundtrack of this world-famous holiday. From the old classics like "Carol Of The Bells" and Bing Crosby's take on "White Christmas," to that one 1994 pop hit that every retail worker dreads (Mariah Carey's "All I Want For Christmas Is You."), one thing can be sure: These songs are here to stay. In this episode, Melody and Dustin break down the common lyrical tropes and harmonic consistencies that bind these songs together and plant them firmly into the zeitgeist of the 20th and 21st centuries.
