What Christmas song did everyone love to hate

[Valerie5555]

one of my votes go to "Chestnuts roasting on an open fire."

On edit maybe everyone ought to 'fess up and admit they were tempted back in '92 as in 1992 to sing "Joy to the world, George Bush is pruned," for I wondered how many were tempted to do that.

1. ALL

of them.

NO exceptions.

[Valerie5555]

4. Especially if they're played too darned early

but I also hate "Mary's boy child." As for "What Child Is This," wouldn't it be funny had at 1 time last year Ms Ducros made up a ditty called "What Moron Is This" about *

[joshdawg]

15. Absolutely!

Agree with you 100%. All of them. Every last one.

[hobbes159]

20. Definately ALL of them

And the woman in the next cubicle at work starts playing them on her computer right after thanksgiving.... <groan>

11. First grandma now Santa.

[Valerie5555]

13. I know who should be run over by a reindeer but wouldn't tell for fear of

getting in trouble with the Secret Service.

3. Any of them being played in mid-november.

Happens every year. Bleh.

[Valerie5555]

6. OMG at least 2 radio stations in Calgary did that this year

and in some ways, :puke: :puke: :puke:

[Systematic Chaos]

5. There is this one version of Jingle Bells

that is sung by some lady in a very syncopated, sort of be-bop style (or something like that... maybe there's no name in English for what the hell they're trying to do). I guess it seemed like a cool idea to do it that way to someone at the time, but any time I hear that rendition I just cringe.

[Valerie5555]

8. What about any by the "Christmas Dogs" or "Jingle Cats?"

"Quick call the Humane Society!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

[Wonk]

7. Best. Valerie5555. Thread. Ever.

[Valerie5555]

9. Argh was tortured by the Christmas music those radio stations I liked

listening to the most had now started playing 24/7 for the past week or so.

[neuvocat]

10. live365.com

Good internet radio and a great way to escape the holiday music.

[mindless]

12. I like some but.

Here in KC. Two stations have gone to 24/7 christmas music till December 25. What is funny is that they are the 2 top rated pop stations. Guess that is an indication of pop music popularity. LOL

[Valerie5555]

14. I feel your pain

eom

[Piperay]

16. Granma got run over by a reindeer...

:puke: :puke: :puke: you get that damn song stuck in your head and you can't get it out!!! :argh: :grr: :grr: :nuke:

[Rhiannon12866]

24. Oh, yes! That has to be about the worst ever!

No thanks for bringing it to mind! LOL!:D

[Dogmudgeon]

17. The Christmas Shoes

Born-Again Yuppie has a guilt attack as a po' li'l boy tries to buy some shoes for his sick Mommy. But he doesn't have enough money, and the mean ol' shopkeeper won't let him buy them shoes! So the Born-Again Yuppie makes up the diff and goes home swelling with pride and the love of Jesus.

And the boy's reason for wanting to buy those shoes?

"So she can be beautiful
When Mamma meets Jesus tonight"

I understand the FDA has just approved this as a substitute for Syrup of Ipecac.

18. Jingle Bell Jingle Bell Jingle Bell Rock

(repeat 93x)

[trof]

19. "I saw mommy kissing Santa Clause"

by Gene Autrey.
First time I heard it I thought it was kind of cute.
Now, for some reason, it grates.

[Bertha Venation]

21. "What Child Is This"

makes me :puke:

Why can't a pagan enjoy what's become a disgusting commercial holiday without having religion shoved down her throat?

[Piperay]

22. Santa Baby...was one I had forgotten

but pretty bad,:puke: trying to seduce Santa into leaving big ole very expensive gifts under the tree. :wtf:

[FloridaJudy]

23. Little Drummer Boy

That has to be the Most Annoying Christmas Song Of All Time!

By the second week of December, I'm ready to pitch a can of cranberry sauce at the nearest speaker, snarling "Rah-Tum-Tah-Tum, my butt!!"

I freaking HATE that song! It's saccharine and repeticious!

Okay, I'll sit down and take my medication, now.
