No sure who made this meme originally, but it's worthy of an annual re-post to start "discussion" again. Must admit I was very much anti- this song for many years, but it has simply grown on me recently. #SHAWC #Macca

I remember hearing it for the first time on a Casey Kasem Christmas Countdown. I associate it with being off from school, mom making cookies and the excitement of the holiday. When I hear those opening notes now, I’m immediately transported to that moment and that makes me smile.
My main line of argument against was always some level of disappointment that Macca could "do better". But as time goes on it seems he knew exactly what he was doing, and that there was real genius behind it (for better or worse, depending on your perspective).

And now I’m wishing there was a segment in this book on the song!
