Blue Christmas
Sad seasonal celebration
Blue Christmas refers to a Christmas season marked by sadness, loneliness, or grief rather than festive cheer.
The phrase gained wide recognition through Elvis Presley's 1957 recording about missing a loved one during the holidays: I'll have a blue Christmas without you.
Churches sometimes hold Blue Christmas services for those struggling with loss or depression during a season that emphasizes joy and togetherness.
