I don't celebrate Christmas it is not in the Bible. They don't really know when Jesus was born.

Are we that surprised? NOTHING shocks me anymore.😮

[lachandraburgess]

This is so hurtful to me ! I will never sang this song again. This is disrespectful to my ancestors 😢

Their time will come, because in scriptures it said' what was first will become last and what was last will become first' what you do will be done to YOU!

Notice how this video does not quote those original lyrics? A quick Google search turned them up and there is nothing the least bit racist, or even referring to race, about them. A man goes for a sleigh ride with his girlfriend, and the sleigh gets stuck in a snow drift. Another day, he slips and falls on the ice and a sleigh goes by but does not stop to help. That's all.

I never really liked the song anyway and there was nothing to jingle about. Peace

We are worried about a song that was allegedly written way back when and we got music right here in our faces today written and is sung and rapped by our own people that degrade and disrespect our women and culture, and no one has nothing to say about that. Jingle Bells may have been negative song then; with a different name I might add, however the meaning and lyrics have changed to fit all nationalities. It is a happy song that all kids enjoy. As a race I believe that we should be moving forward into the future and not living in the pass, never forgetting are history so we won't be doomed to repeat it.

This is actually true and the composer of the song is buried in Savannah ga off Ogeechee road ( state road 17) in a all white cemetery ( at the time of his death ) My Grandmother / elders shared this story decades ago🤘🏿🤘🏿🤘🏿

Did you know that December 25 is the birthday of Tammuz a pagan god? Yes we were tricked into believing that it’s Jesus’ birthday, which it is not .

[piggy]

People believe anything they see on the internet. It’s a song about sleigh races. Pick up a book!!

[mamiejackson]

I never knew this! I'll share this out history runs deep

[dabullzfan]

My daughter used to sing the part "one-horse open sleigh" as "hopeless, soapless sleigh." Not sure where she got them lyrics; she was three.

[ninabolton]

oh wow! I didn’t know that. thank you for sharing this info with us, really great video and content!

[jennywynn]

Citation please. If true, this is very distressing and I’ll never sing again.

[bobsullivan]

Im going to half to say BS. THEY DIDN'T even explane the dam meaning!!

[lulakeeler]

For it is written every knee shall bow and every tongue shall confess out of their mouth that JESUS is LORD CHRIST to the GLORY of GOD the FATHER in Heaven.

And lastly they have their just reward from GOD.

[mwilson]

Now I don't feel bad for not celebrating christmas

[Mind-twjp]

Damn!! let me take this damn bell
off my door!!🚪

[theire]

No you're not... you've simply changed the meaning of the song to something else.

It's the exact same thing with Christmas it self. It was a festival that had zero to do with Christ (for the most part, it still doesn't)..it was changed from something bad to something good, much like Halloween.

[rhlove]

The song was written about the sleigh ride races at Thanksgiving. They were sleigh races.

Just because blackface minstrel shows sang the song does not make the song racist, !! This post is a lie
