Brannan, Jay - Christmas Really Sucks Lyrics

God, I love this song! I think we've all had Christmases like this one at least once in our lives.

I'd love to see a remake of this.

can you give me the chords?? please

welp. here come the waterworks. the passion in your music Jay... gets me every time.

Wow.. Youre good man! You have a new fan!
PS I share the feeling. Hate being alone in this time of the year

i can't believe it's about that season again and here i am. the third year listening to this song and still feeling it.

u have a new subscriber! - Isaiah

Glad to see i'm not quite so alone with the Bah HumBugs. Yeah my Bf asked if would be ok if he went to the annual "Family" Christmas-Eve dinner alone. To top it off he stayed the night to truly leave me alone for both days. Yeah he got back 6 pm Christmas day. Sux, sux, & a humbug kinda suck to. Love your voice, your songs, & thanks for being there when "he" wasn't. (0_~)

My favorite Christmas-Song !!!!

Very nice!

I like this song Jay :)

this is great dude i write songs also!!!

I found you Jay Brannan while I was searching for Good mother By Jann Arden I never knew what I was going to find when I clicked on your cover I wanted to hear one of my favorite artists through somebody elses point of view and in turn I found my Fav all time male artist you.Thanks you for everything you do .your music soothes my soul I love you.I relate even more I think because of the lyrics you write seems like you know my life :)

I have listened to artists like Jann Arden on repeat throughout my life because because at times when I felt broken and theres a hole where my heart use to be this music sings me back to life, makes my heart beat again and helps me feel.

Respect man respect... this what i give u.
And this what i asked santa this year lol...

Hard to get a happy christmas when people purposely sh*t on u...

Peace bro take it easy, merry Xmas

I like this song. I understand the lyrics as I am a widower of 6 years now and no it doesnt get much easier with time. However,christmas was mine and Noahs best times together. So even though its lonely and empty and sad, I find the strength to remember the happy times and so christmas is still my favourite time of year even though I cry alot, I can still smile with the memories.
Jay, I wish that you will find some happiness in your sadness and find a way to feel as good as I do at christmas

My favorite christmas-song, so sad, so touching and so true. This song tells how I feel these days.
Merry christmas!

Jay, just happened to watched this song at the perfect moment, just ended a 5yrs relationship, perfect song for my christmas this year. love from Hong Kong.

You submitted this on my birthday.

That made me really happy, plus this is a really, really good song.

I hate Christmas, always have and probably always will. I love this song.

Very poignant song...luv it!

Amazing song and great lyrics!

Please Jay make this into a single and put it out for Christmas 09' !!!

Event beautiful well into the month of June.

these are simple words and simple music,
but played together it's just magic :)

從沒想到用"萌"這字來形容他是多麼合適...萌得好。

As a gay man brought up in a very religious household, Christmas always feels to me like being forced to attend the birthday party of the bully that picks on you all year.

*Sigh*

I LOVE YOUR MUSIC!!!!!!!!!!! You are so talented..please don t ever stop singing xxxx

right before you sang, "thought you should know" you let out this short little laugh.

I died a little inside. That's how adorable that was.

somebody needs to go hang out with this kid for reals. i don't live in NYC; so it's up to one of you guys.

I don't want to spend it with my family, rather someone I love.
Is this song inspired by "Blue Christmas"?

I want this for my iPod so I can play it obsessively over and over while I work on Christmas, and come home to an empty bed. LOVE IT! All of Jay's songs are the top of the list on my top 25 most played song list! Love your music buddy!
