Nothing is off limits for us to joke, laugh or make a song about - Covid had us all in "Lockdown" and the result:
Christmas Quarantine (Soca Parang 2020) - RemBunction

Its Christmas Again (with Lyrics) - Baron

Sha-la-la - Lennox Gray circa 1978
LYRICS:
Tell your Granny put the sorrel in the sun to dry.
Make the pastelles.
Bake the ham.
And now do you know why? (repeat)
Decorations! Celebration! Music everywhere!
Sing it out loud! Alleluia, Jesus will be here
And you know that He's your 'Main Man'... then, you have no fear.
Send you neighbor best of wishes for the coming year.
Sha-la-la-la-la. Just have a happy day -- a happy Christmas Day. La-di-di-di-di. (repeat)
How glad I am just to know, my Friend, that you are never far and I will never be sad.
I'm so glad just to know, my Friend, that you are never far and I will never be sad. (Repeat)
Groovy lovers in the city walking hand in hand.
Little children make the toy shop like a fairyland.
If you were some kind of angel, you could spread your wings
Then you'd fly up into Heaven and I'd hear you sing:
Tell your Granny put the sorrel in the sun to dry.
Make the pastelles. Bake the ham.
And now do you know why? (Repeat)
Sha-la-la-la-la. Just have a happy day -- a happy Christmas Day. La-di-di-di-di. (Repeat)
How glad I am just to know, my Friend, that you are never far and I will never be sad.
I'm so glad just to know, my Friend, that you are never far and I will never be sad. (Repeat)
Sha-la-la-la-la. Sha-la-la-la-la. Sha-la-la-la-la. Sha-la-la-la-la. (Repeat)

Around My Christmas Tree, originally recorded in 1978 by Lennox Gray of Trinidad & Tobago
Lyrics:
Laughing children tug at Mr Santa
Teddy bears and dollies saying mama
The fragrance of black fruitcake and red wine,
We’ll toast to a special friend of mine.
His name is Jesus
Come little children,
Round my Christmas tree
We’ll have a very merry time
We’ll sing, dance and play
'Til the break of New Year’s Day
We’ll listen to the church bells chime
Christmas presents come with season’s greetings
There will be such peaceful, loving feelings
Such feelings should not come just once a year
To have, to cherish and to share
There’s a light that shines on every flower
And it shines every minute, every hour
And always guides me on my way
This light was born on Christmas Day
His name is Jesus

Trini Christmas Is The Best -Susan Macio
-
We have a saying in Trinidad & Tobago - that "Trini Christmas Is the Best". Christmas is a spectacular season for us, with the food, the music and religious events. This thread is to share the music and culture of our celebration of Christmas. We have a tradition of going from house to house serenading & playing Parang Music one of our genres of music that is especially prominent during this time. Enjoy!

I BELIEVE THE CHILDREN ARE OUR FUTURE - TEACH THEM WELL AND LET THEM LEAD THE WAY
SHOW THEM ALL THE BEAUTY THEY POSSESS INSIDE.
GIVE THEM A SENSE OF PRIDE TO MAKE IT EASIER,
LET THE CHILDREN'S LAUGHTER REMIND US HOW WE USED TO BE." ~ GEORGE BENSON
OUR CHILDREN ARE OUR MOST PRECIOUS RESOURCE
NO MATTER THEIR CREED, COLOR, RACE OR NATIONAL ORIGIN
WE HAVE AN OBLIGATION TO KEEP THEM SAFE, HEALTHY AND HAPPY
Universal Children’s Day is not just a day to celebrate children for who they are but to bring awareness to children around the globe that have experienced violence in forms of abuse, exploitation, and discrimination.
Let’s keep our children safe! Let’s celebrate them!

LOL, they did - a lot of them had a meltdown on twitter
don't understand these so-callled feminists
It's strange though -- cuz I came up in the ERA of feminism and it didn't mean being anti-men. it meant being pro-women and advocating for women's issues and women's equality in healthcare, pay, politics etc.
it's about caring about our fathers, brothers, sons, uncles, husbands -- and wanting them to be the best they can be
a strong woman is not afraid of advocating for the well being of the men in her life
