I wish. I wish.
Myself, I don’t think I’ve ever heard Christmas Shoes. Is this a new one? I think I’ll not rush to find it.
“Let It Snow” MUST GO. Especially because all the insanely chipper people who love snow have to sing it all winter long. I combat this with a T-shirt with “Let it Melt” written on in three times.
Generally I don’t mind Christmas songs – ON Christmas. But when they start playing them around Halloween, I’m ready to torch them all, except the parodies, which I don’t hear unless I play them. It’s the only way to stay sane during the holidays.
DO NOT look for the song. If you value your sanity, DO NOT look for this song.
You DO NOT need to experience THAT SONG.
Too late. Found it here on YouTube. Although my ears fell off and my eyeballs started bleeding, I still think All I Want for Christmas Is My Two Front Teeth wins it.
I like that song. It’s the smooth 'n smarmy ones that make me want to barf…
I had never heard Christmas Shoes, so I had to look it up to see how bad it really was.
I hate you all.
Time to bring out the big guns: All I Want for Christmas Is My Two Front Teeth.
I raise you, err… never mind. Can’t top that.
ETA: you guys are factoring in how often the song is played, right?
What annoys me about that one is that there’s not one even mildly comic line in the entire, supposed-to-be-funny song–unless you find something inherently hilarious about old people.
What did you think the Ghosts of Christmas Past, Present, and Yet to Be were…?
PS: You know the rendition of “O Holy Night” I posted above? Go listen to that first. If you can. Then this ZombiesComic.com is for sale | HugeDomains will answer your question…

If only I had a time machine in addition to this gallon of kerosene and box of matches…
Also known as “The Date Rape Christmas Song.” No really, google “date rape christmas” and see if you find anything besides references to this song.
Me, I don’t like Suzy Snowflake.
ROFLMAO !!! For me, it would be the one with the “tender and mild” line (brain refuses to think about the title) Is it a kid or food?? Either way, I HATE that song and hope writing this does not give me an earworm that I would have to shoot.
But it’s round young virgin. A round young virgin is worth singing about.
“Do They Know It’s Christmas?” Even Bob Geldof hates it and he wrote it.
It has served its purpose. Let it die, die, die…
ETA: It’s “round yon virgin mother and child”, you know. Or, if you prefer, “Round John Virgin, mother and child”.
Christmas Shoes is at the top of my rabid, foaming-at-the-mouth list, and I LOVE Christmas songs. Maybe because it came out the year I was diagnosed with an incurable form of cancer, and I looked at my kids and said, “HELL, NO! If I’m dying, you better not be out buying me a pair of shoes. Where am I going to wear them? Bring me a Big Mac and a chocolate shake!” Complete and utter uselessness. If I ever found myself near the author of that song, I’d have to slap them so hard their eyes would cross.
I like my virgins a bit curvy. Too many well-rounded virgins were a big impetus for leaving Texas.
Yes, that’s the one, kill it, kill it now with fire :mad:
Santa Baby. All versions of it must die.
