Debate: The Grench

[Asmodeus]

After peeping the Christmas Album thread in here, me and my girl got into a debate over the grench. Ive never really considered the song a "Christmas" song, although her points were semi valid. Is the Ho Ho Ho in the background, and the title enough to tie it to The Grinch?

 

[Mr. Dub]

uh.. no. Do you hear anything about christmas in the song? And did you actually have a debate about this with your girlfriend? The ho ho ho in the beginning sounds nothing like a christmas ho ho ho.more like kaliko just buggin out on an intro.

 

[MurdaMichael]

Grench = Not a Xmas Song

The song is about how much he hates some one, defintaly nothing to do with xmas

 

[L.D.S.]

Definitely a Christmas song.

 

[BEAR]

When I hear the Grench I think Santa Claus.

 

[blade179]

what about riotmaker. it has the same ho ho ho ho shit through it.

A song is whatever you want it to be. Its all a matter of opinion.

The same way that you could say that a song isn't a "summer song" or a "love song" could remind you, or bring you back to a point that makes you associate with that time period. It may not be a christmas song, but if you played it all season this year, and then played it in 4 months, it'd probably evolve into a christmas song in your mind. Feel me?

So No, but... Yes.

 

[HomoErectus]

this is a retarded debate. how the hell could someone consider it a christmas song. if it is a christmas song... then it is just as easy to say its a song about your G/F... shes a HO HO HO HO

 

[C-MOB]

its whatever you want it to be...

 

[Asmodeus]

I fully agree with all of yall. She had one other argument, although weak. At about 3:47 or so, he says his name is... The Chris? Or christian. lmao i dunno.

 

[Optic N9ne]

I dunno, sounds kinda like the Grinch to me, all nasty and hatin on everything.

 

[QUICK-NESS-]

^exactly.
ppl spend time bashin on em and dont realize.
its obvious a mockery of the grinch, cause the grinch was always in a "mad!fuck everythin" mood. so it has play in the song

 

[BigRawb]

But, Techs talking about "evil people".

The Grinch hated everyone

lol this is funny though because my friend thought the same thing..

 

[identity-x]

I don't think so...

Using the "image" of The Grinch and naming the song The Grench was more symbolic. When we think of The Grinch someone who's mean, hateful, evil, etc. He's simply using it in a non-holiday context.

 

[identity-x]

I left off songs featuring Santa or Christmas in the title (by Atmosphere, Army of the Pharoahs, De La Soul, etc) for the same reason i left of The Grinch.

unrleated to christmas really

 

[Optic N9ne]

Not related to christmas, i'll agree there, but definitely related to the grich, if that makes any sense.

Great explanation, man.

 

[Infantry Elite]

its called The Grench? ahahhaa


its called "The Grinch" in my iPod
:devious:

 

[Nebulizah]

Merry Muthafuckin Christmas by Eazy-E = Christmas song.

The Grench by Tech = Channukka song.

End of debate. I always thought that was quite obvious.
