for me, it's that "wonderful Christmastime" that I hear on the radio with the ultra computerized echoed beats.

what about U?

Wonderful Christmastime is tough.

But not nearly as hateful as that Christmas Shoes song, or whatever it's called.

Sir, I want to buy these shoes for my Mama, please
It's Christmas Eve and these shoes are just her size
Could you hurry, sir, Daddy says there's not much time
You see she's been sick for quite a while
And I know these shoes would make her smile
And I want her to look beautiful if Mama meets Jesus tonight


So I was sitting in my cubicle today, and I realized, ever since I started working, every single day of my life has been worse than the day before it. So that means that every single day that you see me, that's on the worst day of my life.~Office Space

My feelings about Christmas Shoes were made apparent on another thread.

But I also hate the Wham song. "Last Christmas" or whatever.

"The Chipmunk Song"

"Christmas Shoes"

"Grandma Got Run Over By a Reindeer"

"The Twelve Pains of Christmas"

"I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus"

David Foster's version of "The Carol Of The Bells" (Does he think this is a song about a hurricane? It's so furious!)


"Long live God!" (GODSPELL)

Err I forgot the name and that is horrible...the "do they know it's Christmas in Africa" song. I'm sorry, but I think it is a horrible song.

"Feliz Navidad" can kiss my jolly booty. I despise that song.

But as to the "Do they know it's Christmas" in Africa song -- of course they do! Pat Robertson told them it was as he was smuggling diamonds out of the continent.

I love Sleigh Ride, but I HATE the Johnny Mathis recording! UGH!!! I also can't stand the Mamacita, Donde Esta Santa Claus song in Spanglish. And Merry Christmas, Darling.

"Wonderful Christmastime"

"Little Drummer Boy" - Yikes! Ever hear the version with Bing Crosby and David Bowie?! Why? Why!?

Eww, I hate the Johnny Mathis "Sleigh Ride," too. Totally messes up the tune. I also hate the Ronelles' version, where they just keep singing the same two lines over and over again and move the key up half-step after half-step.

Windy,

HOW could you hate the brilliantly bizarre pairing of Bowie and Crosby! GENIUS!

I think that any holiday music, when computerized and played over a horrible sound system, in a department store, grocery store, or worst of all, at the bus stop, is suicidally depressing.

BluCat, for some reason every time I look at your av I think your'e JohnPopa. Why? Who knows. My brain works in mysterious ways.

I hate the ones that sound too "lite" for "Lite FM", to use an NYC-area reference. Like they don't even need conversion to be used as Muzak. Grr.

Those dogs doing Jingle bells makes my skin ache. Also the song about the homeless kid on Christmas Eve - I think it's something like Santa can you Find me...it just breaks my heart.

Or the bits which weren't necessary for the creation of the Christ child, whichever.

A few years ago we had a "local talent" ---AKA a 6 year old with overly ambitious parents--who somehow got onto the main pop station singing this song that went ....."Somethin's stuck up in the chimney and I don't know what it is"...and then went on to describe smells coming from the fireplace and lighting a fire......

And then for her next single we were subjected to "I Farted on Santa's Lap"......

Lovely isnt' it????

OOO and I hate Streisand's version of Jingle Bells. She sounds like she is on some odd orgasmic acid trip, and the song only seems wonderful to her.

Aww, I adore Shoes, it's such a sweet song!

Yeah, I'm not a huge fan of Blue Christmas and sometimes I'm Dreaming of a white Christmas puts me to sleep after awhile...

I saw mommy kissing santa clause sung by the kid w/ the really annoying lisp...blah.
