Easter has a soundtrack just like Christmas, so why do we never hear it?

"You can’t visit the shops around Christmas time without hearing Feliz
Navidad
Silent Night, or Mariah Carey’s All I Want for Christmas is You.

So why was Kate Ceberano’s song Bedroom Eyes blaring through the speakers as
I did my Easter chocolate shopping this week?

Both Easter and Christmas come with religious beliefs, secular icons, public
holidays and highway traffic jams – but where Christmas music thrives on a
commercial level, the Easter soundtrack seems trapped behind the one
rabbit-proof fence that actually worked."
