    Maybe this is time for a Hipforums Christmas song.
    Someone else can do the music and singing.
    But I could definitely do the lyrics.

    BTW defintely no proceeds going to children's charity. Fuck them, I say.

    PS
    Well, I don't mean literally fuck them like in some of those dodgy posts elsewhere. I mean fuck giving them money.

    The best songwriting as it applies to me would be Blind Melon.

    Their songwriting can really match any mood I'm feeling.

    I agree with Stephen Merritt for sure!

    I also love the songwriting of Okkervil River and also The National
