You have the power to permanently eliminate any Christmas song...

…to never be played on the radio, heard in anyone’s home, downloaded on an Ipod, or remade on Musak…what are your nominations?

  • “The Christmas Shoes” glurgey dreck

  • “Gramma Got Run Over by a Reindeer” bury this one already

  • The Barking Dogs renditions - arrrrrgggh

  • Jessica Simpson’s Christmas album…MAKE HER STOP ‘SINGING’!!

Chipmunks.

Close the thread.

All variations of Santa Baby.

second on christmas shoes.

But especially Madonna’s.

I used to work in a place that had a C60 of Christmas music, with the same tracks on both sides, on repeat for the entire month of December, for four years. I was one of the few employees who worked in a location close to the “public” areas of the building, so I had to endure it all freaking day.

Every one of those songs (including Madonnna’s version of Santa Baby, which I came in here specifically to mention) give me hives to this day.

I wanna wish you a lingering death… I wanna wish you a lingering death… I wanna wish you a lingering death from the bottom of my heeeeaaaaaaaart…

No Christmas song is more annoying than Wonderful Christmas Time.

While it is indeed horrible, I raise you Jingle Bell Rock.

Little Drummer Boy!

Die Frosty! Die!

The 12 days of Christmas and any parody thereof.

Baby, it’s cold outside. Can’t stand it. They sound like they’re drunk and singing out of sync and totally off key.

That’s what I was going to mention, since not only is it inane, it’s also more earwormmy than all of the other inane Christmas songs. At least I’m pretty sure that it’s the same one I’m thinking of, but there’s no way I’m going to click that link to confirm.

But there are plenty of other Christmas songs I wouldn’t mourn for, and the only one mentioned so far that I’d actually disagree with is Little Drummer Boy (though even there, there are certainly some specific renditions we could do without).

It’s Dean Martin. Of course he’s drunk. :smiley:

But… But… I still like the Indian parody one!

And before anyone complains, the funny song and animation was from an Indian band from Australia.

To be honest, I really hate “Silent Night.” Why? Because I really hate singing about “young viiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiirrrrrrrggggggiiiiiiiiiin” in church, next to my mom. It makes me feel weird.

Pretty much any R&B Pop version of any song, with the souped-up vocals and autotune. Argh! Makes my spine curl. The exception: any done in gospel choir or a cappella style.

Since twicks already mentioned my first choice, I’ll go with “Do You Hear What I Hear?”

Away in a Manger

Me too, Larry and I get an unpleasant Yuletide chill just thinking about it. I must have heard this horrible song at least three times per shift and it still makes me want to drown reindeer.

Snow sung by Rosemary Clooney. Die. Die. Die. Die. Die. (in snow)

Dang, I should pit the OP for making me go find that thing on YouTube. :mad: :wink:

All of them.

No, I’m not being facetious. I hate the lot of them except maybe Grandma Got Run Over By A Reindeer which I’m not going to admit in public.
