The No Ones Wrap up Christmas Celebration and Roe Protestation on “A Christmas Voice (I Don’t Want to Bring You into this World)”
Christmas is supposed to be for giving. But the No Ones lament what has been taken away on “A Christmas Voice (I Don’t Want to Bring You into this World).”
Sleigh bells signal the holiday theme. Beatlesque harmonies and British Invasion-inspired arrangement betray their fandom. And Peter Buck (R.E.M.), Scott McCaughey (the Minus 5) and I Was King’s Arne Kjelsrud Mathisen and Frode Stromstad leave no doubt where they stand on social issues as they decry American gun worship, gaslighting and the overturning of Roe v. Wade.
Maybe Mary didn’t have a choice/maybe Jesus didn’t have a voice/but we did/oh yeah, once we did/I don’t want to bring you into this world, the band sings in a manner that belies the number’s downer messaging.
It’s no holiday classic. Yet “A Christmas Voice (I Don’t Want to Bring You into this World)” does manage the difficult trick of threading the season with social commentary without employing too much cliché or being overly strident.
In that regard, it’s a minor Christmas miracle.

Look at Percy looking at Annabeth!
We are 5 episodes in and we already reached the point where, If I tell you that Percy willingly fell into Tartarus with Annabeth just to be with her, everybody would be like "Yeah, that adds up, I guess."

Okay, but it's criminal that we only got one episode with Talia and Lyta together, especially since they were close once. And they didn't even interact!
