6 Thanksgiving-Themed Music Videos That Might Not Make Your Family Look So Crazy
It's Thanksgiving, which means (along with all the glorious food) it's time for awkward family interactions, revisiting your past and maybe dealing with some drama. To ease the tension, here are 6 Thanksgiving-themed videos it's impossible not to LOL at.
When things get tense between your family at Thanksgiving and everyone is shouting their offensive opinions about culture and politics, all you have to do is turn on Adele's "Hello" and your problems will go away... No, but seriously.
There's something about this family that's so entertaining. First they came out with "Xmas Jammies," and now they're back with yet another Thanksgiving parody that reflects all sorts of relatable family drama. This time, they feature pop songs like Drake's "Hotline Bling" and Silentó's "Watch Me (Whip/Nae Nae)" to sing about the stress of cooking and dealing with family. The Holderness family strikes again.
OK, Jimmy Fallon and Rashida Jones are the dynamic duo. Sort of like what the Holderness family does, except for the fact that, you know, they're Jimmy Fallon and Rashida Jones, they change the lyrics to popular songs (from 2014) to make them about Thanksgiving and the holidays. It's pretty hysterical.
There's nothing like going home for Thanksgiving and being showered with affection by your parents, who spoil you for no apparent reason other than the fact that you made the trip home. And the "back home ballers" pretty much sum up that entire experience in this funny video.
When Nicole Westbrook's viral "Thanksgiving" song came out in 2012, everyone immediately called her the new Rebecca Black ("Friday") and it's not hard to see why. The simple, repetitive lyrics about Thanksgiving mixed with over-produced pop vocals and a high-res music video has over 16 million hits on YouTube. It's so bad, it's good.
These funny ladies capture the humor behind the good old "Turkey Dump," where people come home from college and break up with their significant others. It's impossible not to laugh at their catchy pop ballad because it rings so, so true for anyone who's been turkey dumped.
