[AshleyH674]

i love this sng evn tho im not alne :) i love my family...

[rimagirlme1]

I've read that someone here is glad to be alone, no drama..please, I don't have kid's or a mate and trust me, it's a hurt piece, especially during the holiday's.

[rimagirlme1]

Very beautiful song;)

[ChynaDoll0126]

This is a nice song but it really made tears come to my eyes...being with someone for two years then having a bad break up n this the first Christmas without him...*tears*

[YNGBIRD766]

[polobear1975]

Be pissy about being alone if y'all want to but i LOVE this song. It's not Christmas 'til I hear this on the radio. This song doesn't ring sad to me...just reminds me of those awesome 70's and 80's christmas memories

[YNGBIRD766]

[THELASTILLWILL]

I could be single or have a girlfriend a mistress with a wife on the side, this will always be my favorite. No christmas jam can touch it.

[dawny70]

I love this song! And I love the picture on this video. It's so pretty.

[brainsNbeauty727]

There's nothing like good old Christmas music to help you get in the holiday spirit!

[1000Chantelles]

this was my great grandmother's favorite song this time of year.... i played this and my mama start cryin...

[brujuice221]

song is speaking directly to me, going through first christmas without my kids. It really hurts, man

[DaddySweet100]

@brujuice221 I understand what you are saying, I've been there too. My first Christmas after divorce was 1985 & it was very difficult, I cried more than I care to remember. But remember this; when it comes to your kids & their mother always do the right things in the right way. My father told me that & he was right, it paid off. I've had a great relationship with my kids & their mother for many years now. We'll have Christmas dinner together again this year & I don't remember 1985 anymore.

[SoulLadful]

Beautiful Post, but lets remember the true meaining of the season. Giving!! So, with that said, let us not forget the less fortunate. Even when everthing seems to go wrong we all have something to greatful for. HAPPY HOLIDAYS!

[faithunlocksthedoor]

You are so right!!! Right now it's just me and my "hot chocolate" That's what i do, that's what i do at christmas.

[victoryismyname]

What is the answer? Serve others volunteer ..wet the pillow.

[charlessimmons100]

I love this song it has special meaning to me now that my mother has passed..

[AlfredHaynesLive]

I can't speak for the rest of the lonely people, but I'll be drinking eggnog, eating fruitcake, and scarfing down all the dressing I can eat on Christmas! Yum!

[cococurious96]

@AlfredHaynesLive  LOL. i might need to join you.

[dameonbowman]

Loving this

[ImJustCae]

JUST SIT AND ENJOY YOUR FAMILYN LIKE I HAVE BE DOING FOR THE LAST 10 YRS. AT 55 AND WAY UNTIL THE LORD U WITH SOMEONE SPECIAL OF THAN YOU FAMILY 2 SPEND IT WITH.

[soul2soul504]

My All time Favorite Christmas Song....For Some Reason

[112009DUH]

spend time with the family, wish upon the star next Christmas will not be lonely.

[steplite2]

@112009DUH That's a good idea. but some people are not close to family members due to Jealousy and some that are just plain haters. It's sad it has to be that way.

[Nickie0016]

For you, Dear Nicky, I love and miss you so, so very much! RIP.

[jetlife61]

Happy Holidays To You All ,

[ThePocahontas225]

@jetlife61 happy holidays to you too

[jetlife61]

the lonely watch,listen,wonder,and cry, wishing things were different, remembering, knowing,walking alone, eating alone at to white castle cause they are open 24/7 hurrying to fall asleep to stop thinking,to stop feeling to stop crying ,awake again only to remember, to wonder what do the lonely do at christmas time

[SuperBettyboop1998]

Ughh Im 13 Years Old This My Mothers Favorite Song But This Year She Plays It Alot Cause This Is Our First Year Of Christmas Without my Dad He Died R.I.P Daddy

[coreylong35]

[hollins1977]

I pray 2012 will bring forth good times and blessings for me and so many else who feel alone. God Bless

[steplite2]

@hollins1977 Thank-you.

[MaebeBlessed]

Real and Close Family love is so important, so when there is a GAP and no one is there to share that special feeling and joy, count your blessings and look up say a prayer and know God answers prayers and that special gift will be delivered one Christmas.

[punkinistohot]

;)



[halorhell]

1 of the best christmas songs eva since i was unborn

[lasar1968]

one word...MASTERPIECE!!!!!!!

[blegit29]

this is my favorite christmas song by far

[AlbertaZanoah]

Nothing like family at Christmas. A white Christmas and presents can't compare...only family will do.

[0101Lemonade]

What do the lonely do at Christmas? This is a beautiful song. That's a sad thing to be lonely-heartbroken, etc. because of death, illness, whatever the reason, at any time, but really at such a beautiful season of the year. Lets pray for all lonely, hurting, and/or sad hearts throughout the land-for one day it may and/or will be me or you.

[LAWoman323213]

@0101Lemonade Nice comment!

[jetts48]

I love this song, it reminds me of my mom an my aunts. They played the hell out of this song gettin they drink on.. Lol.. This is a real feel good song that makes me wanna cry when I here it an my moms not around.. Smh.. Lmao

[CARMELLAGABOR]

I love this song so much!!!!!!

[bigsexy82ful]

i usually get tipsy off this song during the holidays!!

[shakiylabreonna]

@shadesmagazine dat was nice of u

[shadesmagazine]

I really love this song. I experience the words of this song a many of Christmax(s) and to all the people who experienced the same at this time of year I personality would like to say to you, "Have a wonder, bless, safe & Happy Holiday" if no one else tells you that from someone who shares your disappointment and loneliness at Christmax. Stay strong and maybe one year, the right people / person could come along and all change that. With love from a stranger, "Happy Holidays to you yall."

[mizerika1]

@shadesmagazine

Thanx hunni, that was so nice of you, I hope that u have a Happy Holiday as well.



[shadesmagazine]

@mizerika1 You're very much welcome.

[shadesmagazine]

@mizerika1 You're very welcome.

[Thesmooth347]

@shadesmagazine Shades, if you give of yourself you may not feel so lonely or disappointed. There are millions of people who are really worse off than you are and if find a charity of some sort to get involved in you may find that you won't feel so lonely or empty. Think of all the homeless mothers and their children, shutins.elderly, kids in hospitals etc.... You never know. it could be a life changing experience. You Also have a safe, wonderful and blessed Christmas.

[shadesmagazine]

@Thesmooth347 That's a very nice and kind thought. I think what has always bother me the most is, "I am a very giving person" the people in my circle rely heavy on me, (parents, sisters, wife) I'm a responsible man who myself, can't rely on my people myself when I get lonely or weary. I think if I give anymore, I'll burn out what's left of me. Thank you very much for the encouragement. You and your's have a wonder holiday too!!!

[frndlyres3]

@shadesmagazine Definitely share your sentiment with this. I am in the same boat. I am encouraged by the fact, the people that rely on me are so appreciative. God bless everyone on this holiday and every day after.

[steplite2]

@frndlyres3 Let's pray for all of us who are in this sad situation.

[steplite2]

@shadesmagazine Thank-you. I feel you.

[Nickie0016]

@shadesmagazine

Thank you!

[MsLow2010]

@shadesmagazine Thank you very much and the same to you!!!

[StevesWifeCharlo]

@shadesmagazine , GOD BLESS YOU THIS CHRISTMAS! JESUS IS THE REASON FOR THE SEASON...YOU ARE LOVED BY GOD, AND HE SAID THAT HE WOULD NEVER LEAVE YOU OR FORSAKE YOU. Your lonely time is over, your heart is no longer broken, because when Christ comes into your heart, you are then made complete in HIM! Happy Christmas, and a Blessed 2012!~ Charlo

[MrBivins]

My wife hates this song, Sometime I play it just to piss her off

[ashjaiden08]

Love this song

[Assilem30]

I dont know what the lonely do but I know what Im gonna do......Im gonna stop hitting the the replay button because I think 6 times in a row is enough....LOL. This song is truly a classic.

[jojamful]

All the stores are playing Christmas music - and it's not even Thanksgiving yet - so it's nothing wrong with playing your Christmas music in November. I just put my Christmas CDs in my car. It will be Christmas (and a brand new year) before you know it!!!
