Hey, it’s Christmas time-ish, and if you can’t tell by the tinsel decorating the lampposts and the sale posters flooding store windows, you can tell by the music: White Christmas, Here Comes Santa Claus, Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas crackling from radios in just about every business you pop into. The only relief, if you want it, is the street. Except in Sunset Park, where the local Business Improvement District has decided to blast holiday music from lampposts in the shopping area, hoping to keep the activity fresh in folks’ minds. It’s not playing 24 hours a day, but, and we know this is hard to believe, not everybody wants to hear holiday music outside. WNYC has more.
