Yep, that's Kenny Rogers.

Yes, that is Kentucky Homemade Christmas.

Yes, it is cheesy and yet still dark and the music is...well...let us be generous and not mention the music at all in the spirit of the season.

I love this song.

It started out as a joke years ago with I did my Christmas Song Download thing but every year, I kept coming back to it. Liking it more and more, appreciating it more and more, and now, interestingly enough, I love it.

While it doesn't have the skill or odd juxtaposition of talent like Bing and Bowie, it has a real sincerity at heart.

So, mock me if you wish, and some of you will, but I do love this song.
