You're a Mean One, Mr. Grinch Source: How the Grinch Stole Christmas Villain: The Grinch Nominator: Player 0 (2 left) Favorite lyric: Your soul is an appalling dump heap overflowing with the most disgraceful assortment of deplorable rubbish imaginable / Mangled up in tangled up knots! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cGSneujgGT8 Villainy: 4 Characterization: 7 Melody: 8 Total: 19/30 I really, really don't care for Christmas music, but there are a select few Christmas songs that never really get old. These include (but aren't limited to) any song from A Charlie Brown Christmas, TSO's Carol of the Bells, and You're a Mean One Mr. Grinch. It's funny that this of all songs became a Christmas classic given that the whole song is just Thurl Ravenscroft winning a bet over how many insults he could dish out in a single song. It helps that his voice is so deep and smooth that even when hearing it two dozen times per day in December, it doesn't grate the ears like so many others. So how evil does this make the Grinch out to be? Well... it's not exactly clear. We know plenty of ways he's disgusting and despicable, enough to get a good picture of who is being described, even if his actual villainous action are heavily reliant on visuals. --- Khal Kirby, warlord of the Super Star Khalasar PSN/Steam: CheddarBBQ https://goo.gl/Diw2hs ...
