Hoewel kerst veelal geassocieerd wordt met de warmte en gezelligheid van het samenkomen met familie en vrienden, ervaart niet iedereen kerstmis als the most wonderful time of the year. Kerst kan namelijk ook als eenzaam worden ervaren, of als erg stressvol – bijvoorbeeld door de verhitte gesprekken tijdens het kerstdiner. Op welke wijze (kerst)muziek ons stressgevoel tijdens de niet zo hap-happiest season of all kan reduceren, en hoe vaktherapie zich binnen het domein van de psychologie en de psychiatrie onderscheidt van andere vormen van therapeutische interventies, bespreekt redacteur Emerence Kapteijn in deze kerstspecial van Radio Swammerdam met dr. Martina de Witte (University of Melbourne). Zij onderzoekt zowel de effectiviteit van muziekinterventies als waarom, hoe en wanneer muziektherapeutische interventies effectief zijn. Met een column van Job Korte.

We have a Christmas confession. Honestly, we don't really care that much for Christmas music. Oh, we're not scrooges or anything — well, a few of us are — but mainly it's just the nature of Christmas songs themselves. The chord patterns are not especially easy to remember, and since you do them only a few days or weeks every year, you don't get a chance to get real cozy with them. Plus, well, frankly Christmas tunes generally don't swing. (Put a beat behind “Little Town of Bethlehem” and there will be repercussions….) But here's one that does fit the Flood groove nicely, especially when the merriest of our merry band — Danny Cox and Floodster Emerita Michelle Hoge — lead the way.About the SongWritten in 1943 as a vehicle for Judy Garland in the MGM musical Meet Me in St. Louis, “Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas” was later recorded by Frank Sinatra with modified lyrics and quickly became part of America's standard Christmas set list on radios across the nation.In fact, ASCAP regularly ranks it among the five most performed Christmas song each year, along with “Santa Claus is Coming to Town,” “Winter Wonderland,” “Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!” and The Christmas Song.”MGM hired Hugh Martin and Ralph Blane to write several songs for its movie, which gave “Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas” a memorable setup.In the scene in which the song is debuted, a family is distraught by the father's plans to move to New York City for a job promotion, leaving behind their beloved St. Louis home. It is Christmas Eve and Judy Garland's character sings the song to cheer up her despondent baby sister.ControversiesAlthough Ralph Blane is credited with writing the music for many of Hugh Martin's songs, Martin later claimed in his autobiography that he wrote both music and lyrics to all of the songs in this movie."I was reasonably content to let him receive equal screen credit, sheet music credit, ASCAP royalties, etc.,” Martin wrote, “mainly because this bizarre situation was caused by my naive and atrocious lack of business acumen."If Martin was indeed doing double duty on the songs, it might explain why he had so much trouble with this particular tune. For instance, before filming began, some of Martin's original lyrics were rejected by director Vincente Minnelli, who found them depressing.Martin wrote several changes to make the song more upbeat. In particular, the lines "…. It may be your last / Next year we may all be living in the past" became "Let your heart be light / Next year all our troubles will be out of sight.”Swinging the SeasonWhile Judy Garland sang it straight — very straight — in the movie, “Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas” started swinging with Sinatra's 1948 treatment. Since then, many others — from Ella Fitzgerald and Lena Horne in the ‘60s to Joe Williams and Mel Tormé in the 1990s — have heeded the call of those cool chords to make the song jazzier.In 2009, Keyshia Cole even reached number 58 on the Hot R&B/Hip Hop Songs chart with her take on the tune.More Christmas Tunes?Finally, if one song is not sufficient fuel for your current Christmas spirit, we have a booster pack for you. Check our the “La Flood Navidad” playlist in our free Radio Floodango music streaming service. (In fact, we've just added our 2023 take on “Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas” to be its lead-off track.)For that yuletide playlist, we've culled bits of audio recorded over the past dozen years by The Flood as well as by a half dozen Flood friends. Guest artists include Ritch Collins, Ron Sowell, Jim Rumbaugh, Karen Combs, Mike Smith and Randy Brown.Enjoy, and Merry Christmas to us every one! This is a public episode.

Who's That Girl? A New Girl Podcast

This podcast covers New Girl Season 3, Episode 18, Sister III, which originally aired on March 4, 2014 and was written by Camilla Blackett and directed by Jay Chandrasekhar. Here's a quick recap of the episode:In our third episode with Abby, Jess gets upset when she thinks that Abby and Schmidt are further along in their relationship than her and Nick, so they move in together. Meanwhile, Cece, and her new best friend Coach, are suspicious of Abby and try to get Schmidt to see it too.We discuss Pop Culture References such as:Garbage Pail Kids - Nick told Winston that Jess makes him put his Garbage Pail Kids in a box.The Little Match Girl - When Nick was wearing his nightshirt, Jess said he looked like the Little Match Girl. Additional Pop Culture References such as:[Nora] Ephron - Schmidt shared he needed a break from “Snora” Ephron. Nora Ephron was an American journalist, writer, and filmmaker who is best known for her romantic comedy films and was nominated three times for the Writers Guild of America Award and the Academy Award for Best Original Screenplay for the movies Silkwood, When Harry Met Sally..., and Sleepless in Seattle. Ephron also directed films including her own screenplays like Sleepless in Seattle and You've Got Mail, both starring Meg Ryan and Tom Hanks.[The Trolley Song by Judy Garland] - Jess sang a portion of this song when she was in the hotel room, singing “Clang, clang, clang went the trolley | Ring, ring, ring went the bell”. "The Trolley Song'' is a song written by Hugh Martin and Ralph Blane and made famous by Judy Garland in the 1944 film Meet Me in St. Louis. Blane and Martin were nominated for and lost the Academy Award for Best Original Song at the 1945 Academy Awards, for "The Trolley Song". The song was ranked #26 by the American Film Institute in 2004 on the AFI's 100 Years...100 Songs list. We also mention a fun fact about this song in our Trivia section in the podcast. Children of Men - Schmidt was concerned they hit a car in a neighborhood where it looked like they filmed Children of Men. Children of Men is a 2006 dystopian action thriller film co-written and directed by Alfonso Cuarón. The screenplay was based on P. D. James's 1992 novel The Children of Men, which takes place in 2027 when two decades of human infertility have left society on the brink of collapse.This episode, we discuss who is most likely to make their own jewelry, move in to prove a point, sleuth to find out what someone is up to, and be ready for rapidfire questions. We also cover the scene between Nick and Schmidt around the Iroquois throat band Abby gifted Schmidt as our “Schmidtism”. For “Not in the 2020s” we talk about Winston's comments to the little boy and Nick pantsing Winston. We also discuss Cece apologizing to Schmidt as our “Yes in the 2020s”. Additionally, we explore the career of Ericka Kreutz (Elevator Woman), the guest star of this episode.Also in this episode were the following guest stars who we do not discuss in the podcast: Stone Eisenmann (Young Nick - Previously Discussed in S2E13), Jordan Fuller (Young Winston - Previously Discussed in S2E13), Linda Cardellini (Abby Day - Previously Discussed in S3E16), and Connie Sawyer (Oldest Woman in the World).We did not find the bear this episode.While not discussed in the podcast, we noted other references in this episode including:Iroquois - Schmidt clarifies that the jewelry that Abby made him is an Iroquois throat band. The Iroquois are of the Iroquoian people who are Indigenous to the Northeastern Woodlands and the Great Lakes of North America. The Iroquois Confederacy was believed to be founded between 1450 and 1660 by bringing together five different nations in the southern Great Lakes area, with each nation having its own language, territory, and function.Byzantine - When Jess is in the hotel, she asks if there are any films in the Byzantine era. The Byzantine Empire was the continuation of the Roman Empire in the East, continuing after the fall of the Western Roman Empire. It existed until the fall of Constantinople in 1453 to the Ottoman Empire. At the time, it was called the Roman Empire and only became called by the term “Byzantine” after the end of the realm. Approximately this time period covers 395 CE to 1453.Ethel Kennedy - In this episode, Jess tells Abby her insecurities around Nick and mentions that while she went to the hotel by herself, she watched a documentary about Ethel Kennedy. Ethel Kennedy is known for being an American human rights advocate and the widow of the late Robert F. Kennedy. She founded a non-profit charity and in 2014 was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom.When Jess and Nick are agreeing that they shouldn't live together, they mention both the pilgrims and the Plymouth Rock Massacre.Plymouth Rock - While there wasn't actually a massacre, Plymouth Rock is the site that marked where the Plymouth Colony was founded in December of 1620 when the Mayflower landed in the “New World”.Pilgrim - A pilgrim is used to describe a traveler who goes on a journey to a holy place. In this case, it referred to the Pilgrim Fathers who came to North America on the Mayflower to escape religious persecution in England.This episode got a 7/10 rating from both Kritika and Kelly; Kritika's favorite character was Cece and Kelly's favorite was Coach.Thanks for listening and stay tuned for Episode 19!Music: "Hotshot” by scottholmesmusic.comFollow us on Twitter, Instagram or email us at whosthatgirlpod@gmail.com!Website: https://smallscreenchatter.com/

It was a Christmas hit that literally had to be rescued from the trash! This is the story behind…Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas. #BehindTheChristmasHits is Presented by Pizza Pizza! It was written for Judy Garland’s 1944 movie Meet Me in St. Louis. The film was notable for a couple of reasons: the song and for being where Judy and the film’s director, Vincent Minnelli, met and fell in love. They married in 1945 and then Liza Minnelli was born the next year. The movie tells a year in the life of the Smith family beginning in 1903 and leading up to the World’s Fair the following year. Meet Me in St. Louis became the second-highest grossing film of 1944 and had a hugely successful soundtrack with three hit songs – hey, that’s just like Flashdance! Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas is heard after Garland’s character, Esther, becomes engaged to the handsome boy next door, John Truitt, at a fancy Christmas Eve ball – however, their engagement means, they have to move from St. Louis to New York – something that doesn’t sit well with Esther’s 5-year-old sister, Tootie. Songwriter Hugh Martin wrote a melody for the song but threw it away after being unable to figure out what to do with it. When I say threw it away, I mean, in the trash to be taken out by custodial staff. After telling his writing partner, Ralph Blane, what he had done the next day, Blane insisted they start going through trash cans because that melody was too good to throw out. Blaine once told NPR “thank the lord we found it.” That said, Judy Garland had some major problems with the original lyrics and refused to sing them. She thought they were far too sad and gloomy and needed some hope & optimism. Hugh Martin wrote in his biography, The Boy Next Door, he refused to rewrite it and stood by the song as it was. That’s when Garland’s co-star, Tom Drake, came to Martin and said “I’ll think you’ll be sorry if you don’t do this.” So Martin went home and wrote the version heard in the movie. How sad were those original lyrics? Well, the line "Let your heart be light / Next year all our troubles will be out of sight" was originally written as "It may be your last / Next year we may all be living in the past.” There was a lot of pain in those original lyrics – something that wasn’t often expressed in Christmas music back then. But Judy Garland wasn’t alone in her feelings that it was too sad. In 1957, Frank Sinatra tweaked the line “Next year all our troubles will be miles away” to the now more commonly heard “From now on our troubles will be miles away.” Suddenly, a wish for a better tomorrow became more of a celebration of the present day. Depending on how the music is arranged, you can still get those melancholy feels…but any hint of the pain in Martin and Blaine’s original lyrics…was now gone. Ralph Blane passed away in 1995. Martin lived until he was 96 in 2011…and he liked to keep up with who was recording new versions of their song every year. He told Entertainment Weekly he enjoyed Sarah McLachlan and James Taylor’s…and called Twisted Sister’s version “a hoot.”Thanks for joining us.
