The answer to today's question is the same as the answer to "War? What is it good for?": Absolutely nothing. Today in the U.S. is Thanksgiving, the harbinger of holiday season, the time when nobody wants to be away from "home," whatever "home" may be for you. I always recommend reading Mark Liberman for this holiday, and for music, Thanksgiving has but one popular tune: "Over the River and Through the Woods." However, since Perry Como never specified which holidays there was no place like home for, I nominate "Home for the Holidays" as an honorary member of the "Songs about Thanksgiving" club.
