I've noticed this year, and perhaps last year, that I'm hearing the original, sadder lyrics of "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas" being played over the airwaves. I hear "Next year all our troubles will be out of sight" and "Until then we'll have to muddle through somehow", rather than the more typical "From now on our troubles will be out of sight" and "Hang a shining star upon the highest bow"? I have my ideas why more people want to sing the darkest lyrics this year (and maybe last year, too), but why do you think this is happening?
