One of the most popular versions came out at the same time at the song. My parents read it to me as a little kid in the 80s and 90s. I can still picture some of the illustrations.

@@pyropulseIXXI the original poster is using the word “define” correctly. According to the Oxford English Dictionary (often considered a go-to for the etymology of words), the first part of the definition of the word “define” is to: ■ state or describe exactly the nature, scope, or meaning of: *the contract will seek to define the client's obligations.* ■ give the meaning of (a word or phrase), especially in a dictionary. ■ make up or establish the character or essence of: *for some, the football club defines their identity.*

Frosty The Snowman was written by two songwriters named Walter Rollins and Steve Nelson in 1950. It’s kind of interesting how we usually think of these old Christmas songs as if they’re folk music, yet in reality, they were written relatively recently by very much known artists.

[@bananawitchcraft]

Well I get what you mean, but I've never heard of Walter Rollins or Steve Nelson, and 1950 was 72 years ago. Most Christmas carols I've heard are from the 19th or 20th centuries. I guess some people think they are hundreds of years old, but if you pay attention, most of them don't sound like it.

[@elijahfordsidioticvarietys8770]

@@bananawitchcraft I’ve always felt as though they’ve kind of always been there. They’ve been passed around and covered so much, you never really think of some guy as having written them. The fact that you haven’t heard of the writers, and that I had to look them up says alot. Even songs that are about as old, people know who they’re by usually. People think of songs by The Beatles as being by The Beatles, but no one name comes to anybody’s mind when Frosty The Snowman was mentioned. In that way, these songs are sort of thought of as folk music, even if they totally aren’t. Also, 1950 wasn’t that long ago. It’s closer to the present than almost all of time, they had pretty much all of the hallmarks of what we consider “modernity” (cars, electricity, TV), and there are still tons of people who were literally alive in 1950.

[@Axterix13]

I think that has more to do with so many different people singing the songs than anything else. And, well, most songs from the same time as the Beatles, most people won't know who sang them, and that's without there being a ton of covers. Heck, that applies to songs from the 1970s, when talking to people who were alive during that time. Typically when I bring up Golden Earring, people will have no clue who they are. If I mention that they sang "Radar Love", they still won't have a clue. And if I play the song, then, and only then, they might know it. And that's for a band that did stadium tours in the US back in the day, with multiple songs that hit the charts. Basically, yeah, Rolling Stones, the Beatles, and so on, well remembered. Everyone else, well, the oldies station plays stuff from the 1980s/1990s now, not from the 1950s and 1960s. Also worth noting that today's pop music, a surprising amount of it is written by a select few people, yet we associate with the artists who perform it, and not the writers.

[@elijahfordsidioticvarietys8770]

@@Axterix13 Frosty was not written by the performer either. That’s been going on forever. Still, you would probably still know it by the performer, but no one ever does. Like you said, it’s probably just the fact that everyone has fucking performed, so no one knows what it’s from.

I'm glad that you are pointing out that a lot of Christmas songs seem to have a pretty disturbing undertone - e.g. Stalker Santa ("You'd better not shout, you'd better not cry ...")

[@acemstudio]

"Maybe we could make a song about hot chocolate or something what about that?" no no no make a song about chestnuts roasting on a fire but then if you do that, you might get to thinking about someone named Jack Frost and how he's just been ALONE for like THREE CENTURIES trying to be seen by just ANYBODY and completely ignored by the people who are supposed to look after children but failed in looking after Jack who is a forever child BECAUSE HE DROWNED IN A LAKE.

Between this and that other snowman sketch, I think we can conclude that snowmen in the Ryanverse are demonic beings.
