Your least favorite Christmas songs? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

There has to be some coal out there-

Mine:

-Little Drummer Boy, by anyone
-Sleigh Ride, by anyone
-Wonderful Christmastime, Paul McCartney [with full and deepest apologies to Penny Lane]

And in a category by itself, Feliz Navidad by Jose Feliciano. I either totally love it and get into it, or it makes me want to stick my head in the oven. No middle ground.

I do like "Wonderful Christmastime".

But to me, the worst Christmas song is...any Christmas song by Andy Williams, especially this lump of coal!...

ABlairican Pie · 12-15-2015, 07:34 PM

I am sick to death of all the updated "jazzy" or "bluegrass" or "disco" versions of classic Christmas songs. This cornball attempt to be "hip" or "relevant" just leaves me cold, and it makes me HATE Christmas.

I'm trying to think of some in particular... So many out there.

All I Want for Xmas is My 2 Front Teeth and The Chipmunk Xmas Song are the worst. A local radio station, unfortunately the only one that comes in well in my car, starts playing Xmas songs on Thanksgiving. I'm ready for Xmas to be over by the 2nd week of December. :-(

that's ok opus.

Anyway my least favorites are

The Christmas Shoes

White Christmas - Bing Crosby(Big Yawn! and way overplayed!) I like the Drifter's version better!

Blue Christmas- Elvis Presley (another big yawn!)

JO Sweet Heart · 12-15-2015, 11:58 PM

I hate to hear "All I Want For Christmas Is You" from that Vince Vance act.

God bless you always!!!

Does anyone remember the barking dogs Jingle bells? Came out in the early 70's That was pretty bad! I haven't heard it in years! Wonder if they still play it? It would like to hear it just for old times sake to laugh at it!!!

biffbronson · 12-16-2015, 03:14 AM

I lost a lot of respect for Andy Williams when I read his autobiography, because of how he made fun of Lawrence Welk. I think it's low class to make someone in your profession look bad -- when Welk never did anything bad to him.

I don't really have Least Favorites, but I'm getting a little tired of "Santa Baby" and "Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer."

I wanna buy these shoes for mom so that she can see Jesus...I think that's how it goes...and as a Lutheran...I can't even stand the song!

How could I have forgotten The Twelve Days of Christmas? That couple had a weird gift giving relationship.

auburntiger · 12-17-2015, 10:56 PM

baby its cold outside

Regulus · 12-17-2015, 11:45 PM

ANY Song with a Political Message in it.

Examples include:

Happy Christmas (The War's Over) - John Lennon

Someday at Christmas - Stevie Wonder

Do they know it's Christmas time at all? - Band Aid

In the case of the latter I read a village in Africa gets over $500,000.00 dollars each year in royalties from this song, Since it's been over 30 years since this song came out I ay we need to make a new version of this song called "Do they know that we're not poor anymore?".

I call that The Christmas Date Rape Song. There's nothing romantic about it, no matter how playful the singers try to make it.

Other songs that make me want to

The Christmas Shoes
I Want a Hippopotamus for Christmas
Where Are You Christmas
Any Christmas song by Pentatonix
The Little Drummer Boy by Destiny's Child
White Christmas by Michael Bolton (I always liken his singing of it to him sitting on the toilet, trying to do you know what, and then when he hits that high note, he's finally found relief).
Any Christmas song sung by Christina Aguliera. Just SING the song, stop running notes for two minutes with all that oohing and aaahing!
