Is This the Perfect Christmas Song? [WATCH/LISTEN]
Apparently science can put together the 'perfect' anything, even the perfect song. A scientist has engineered the perfect Christmas song so here it is.
We're having a hard time deciding if we play this song during the Winter Nights & Lights parade in St. Cloud on Saturday, since it IS "the perfect Christmas song"!
A musicologist at the Boston Conservatory, Dr. Joe Bennett, studied the lyrics, tempo, vocals, and musical key of the best 200 Christmas songs and came up with this song based purely on science.
I think it's catchy, but certainly isn't a classic that will be up there with Mariah Carey's "All I Want For Christmas Is You", or anything close to that. Maybe I'm wrong and can't argue with science...cause science is never wrong, right?
To each their own I guess. We'll let you be the judge of this one.
