Christmas Carols for the Insane

Just a little humor here to get everyone in the Christmas Spirit!

I've always wondered why my favorite carols are in the minor key...anyone else?

And on a side note, what is everyone's opinion on Picardy Thirds? I personally DETEST them. My most hated musical element by far. I always take them out of my pieces.


CHRISTMAS DISORDERS and CAROLS
1. Schizophrenia — Do You Hear What I Hear?
2. Multiple Personality Disorder — We Three Kings Disoriented Are
3. Dementia — I Think I’ll be Home for Christmas
4. Narcissistic — Hark the Herald Angels Sing About Me
5. Manic — Deck the Halls and Walls and House and Lawn and Streets and Stores and Office and Town and Cars and Buses and Trucks and Trees and…..
6. Paranoid — Santa Claus is Coming to Town to Get Me
7. Borderline Personality Disorder — Thoughts of Roasting on an Open Fire
8. Personality Disorder — You Better Watch Out, I’m Gonna Cry, I’m Gonna Pout, Maybe I’ll Tell You Why
9. Attention Deficit Disorder — Silent night, Holy oooh look at the Froggy – can I have a chocolate, why is France so far away?
10. Obsessive Compulsive Disorder — Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells….
11. Oppositional Defiant Disorder– You better not cry – Oh yes I will
You better not Shout – I can if i want to
You better not pout – Can if i want to
I’m telling you why – Not listening
Santa Claus is coming to town – No he’s not!!

    1. I like minor EVERYTHING better. haha. Though those two you mentioned are certainly favorites. I don't know what it is about minor, but it grabs my soul in a way that major music just doesn't. Maybe I'm secretly more emo than I appear? hahahaha.

  2. I get that! there is nothing better than a good minor piece with lots of pathos and drama with a cup of tea to make life better!
