It also makes me tear up.

4 more comments have been lost in the ether at this killed duplicate.

And for something completely different, when did Minchin lose his eye shadow? Isn't he afraid he might start looking normal or something?

And lest anyone take that wrong, let me assure you I'm a big fan. White Wine in the Sun became my favorite Christmas song the very first time I heard it.

Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag. (show it anyway)

Drinking white wine in the sun is a particularly *downunder kind of Christmas. I know that's what I'll be doing.

Just wanted to thank you for doing this... I have too few points left or I would have promoted it.
It is a great song.

While I appreciate Minchin's songs, especially White Wine in the Sun, I find him to be much funnier when he's just talking, like this clip. Perhaps because he's easier for me to understand when he's not singing. Even talking, I find it hard to hear his words...I don't think it's just the accent, it's more like he just mumbles.

But in any case, he's a funny, funny guy.

Honestly Max, I think that's part of the charm. And it's -definitely- part of the humor. "But the lyrics are dodgy." struck me as making as much fun of his own song as it was of the standard Christmas carols...kind of a pot-meet-kettle line. Not to mention that almost all of his songs sound that way, or at least all of them that stick in my head.

I liked it, but it really sounded like he was making it up as he went. Very talented, no doubt, but it was a bit too rambling for something that had been composed.

I love the song, but I thought it was lame to call it an atheist song. A Christmas song for EVERYONE fits it much better Merry Xmas sift.
The writer and singer of the song is an atheist and many of his songs deal with religion from an atheist view...so more accurate then lame.
