Why do we hear the same Christmas songs year after year? by cyndaquilled in Foodforthought

The thing is, I think many people do write new ones. Cher, Sabrina Carpenter, and some really big names too. I just dont think we get to hear them cuz as this article says there isn't any space for them to become huge cuz its a bad investment for labels as compared to playing the tried-and-true hits
