Onwards goes the journey and one can not forget the Christmas movies involving the classic Alvin and Chipmunks. There are several, and one of the better ones is the one with the Golden Harmonica, and since I have not seen the more modern versions, so in my book an oldie is a goodie.
Being called a chipmunk as a child really makes this one special. Why a chipmunk? Well I was even more perky and spritly as a youth than as an adult, but one can not forget the chipmunk duo og Chip and Dale. Yes, this dates me a bit. However it is true, in the 90s the jokes were rige, but in the 2010s and 2020s the cultural sphere seems to put the reference more farther afield.
Any ways, back to the song. Squeaky voices, happy messages, as nd the intense childhood desire for none other than… A hoolahoop! Ahh, the simple things.
And in case you wonder to which one of the Chipmunks I most related, id you know me well you’ll know that that answer is simple: Simon!
Enjoy another blast from the past!
Christmas Don’t Be Late

Christmas, Christmas time is near
Time for toys and time for cheer
We’ve been good, but we can’t last
Hurry Christmas, hurry fast

We can hardly stand the wait
Please Christmas, don’t be late
Okay, fellas get ready
That was very good, Simon
Naturally!
Very good, Theodore
He-he-he-he
Ah-Alvin, you were a little flat
Watch it, ah-Alvin… Alvin? Alvin!
Okay
Want a plane that loops the loop
I still want a hula hoop
We can hardly stand the wait
Please Christmas, don’t be late
We can hardly stand the wait
Please Christmas, don’t be late
Very good, boys
