“Please have snow and mistletoe.” This is a silent hope: I will be home by Christmas, and it is a hope that we all have in the holiday season, the hope that we want to be warm, comfortable, and back inside our old customs. It is an effortless appeal, yet one that is full of passion. The Beach Boys, with their sincere and touching music, take the best of it in “I’ll Be Home For Christmas.”
Their harmonies are like a warm blanket that covers you and makes you remember snowy nights, bright lights, and the relaxed happiness of being with people you love. The song adds to this emotion: the falling snow, which is so tender, the warm houses, and the glittering lights, which remind us of past holidays. It is calming, sentimental, and very soothing.

The fans will describe how the song takes them back to the good old days. One more says it makes her miss her family, but in a beautiful, warm way. It is this emotional attachment that makes this song special.
However, not every moment during the holidays is happy. “Blue Christmas” is a song about the darker, sadder aspects of Christmas, with the lights seeming duller and the silence more weighty. The Beach Boys are celebrating every aspect of the holidays: the happiness, the missing, and everything in between.
