Is the so called "Charlie Brown Theme" a valid Christmas song


https://youtu.be/x6zypc_LhnM

It debuted in the Charlie Brown Christmas special back in the 60s and sometimes gets included in Winter Holiday music rotations.

Do you consider it to be a "Christmas song" or something else?

Its more of a Christmas song than My Favourite Things. I've never understood how that one gets included in so many Christmas playlists.

Linus and Lucy, no.

Christmas Time is Here, yes.

Linus and Lucy basically is the Peanuts theme, because they use it in other shows. Which have nothing to do with Christmas.

Saying Linus and Lucy is a Christmas song because it was in the Peanuts Christmas special is like saying the South Park theme is a Christmas song because they've done multiple Christmas specials.

Except they don't typically play South Park theme on radio stations and shit during the holidays.

Linus and Lucy get regular, even heavy play, on radio stations and Pandora Christmas playlists and the like.

Same reason You're A Mean One, Mr Grinch is a Christmas song

Except the Grinch is literally about Christmas. It's intrinsic to his entire existence.

Because Jack Jones recorded it on a Christmas album as a favor before the release of the movie (Sound of Music) and it became a hit song.

Guess I need to point out that not only does A Charlie Brown Christmas have "Christmas" in the title, but it's also "literally about Christmas"...
