Least favorite Christmas music?


Posted: Dec 2, 2011

I have to admit I can't stand the "Christmas Shoes" song.  I have a high tolerance for schmalz, but that's over the top for me.  I change the radio station when that comes on. 

 

I'm sorta on the fence about "I Want a Hippopotamus for Christmas".  It's kind of cute, but it has the disadvantage of sticking in my head and I end up singing it the rest of the day!

Anyone else?

There is only ONE holiday song I like (actually LOVE) - AnaPhylaxis

And that would be Feliz Navidad, the original by Jose Feliciano. It's just so upbeat and energetic sounding that it always makes me smile when I hear it.

yeah, but what it your LEAST favorite??? - NM

I substitute my stepfather's name and add in that he was walking our little Tiny when it happens! A few years back I made up about three verses and sang it at our family Christmas party. I have to admit, it was a riot.

Santa Baby by Madonna - Rainy

Like fingernails on a chalkboard to me. Really like the Earthy Kitt version, though.

I agree with Christmas Shoes - ugh

"if I heart it one more time" I literally laughed out loud when I read that!!!

Personally, it's anything by the Chipmunks for me.

I Ain't Gettin' Nuttin' for Christmas - <<cringe>>

Our local station plays it repeatedly interspersed w/ Grandma Got Run Over and that Jeff Foxworthy song. Ughhh.

Little Drummer Boy - Maggie May

I get so sick of parumpa pum pum over & over again. (Yet I love Feliz Navidad, go figure.)

Have you ever heard the song "I farted on Santa's lap now Christmas is gonna stink for me" ? Hilarious

I don't want a hippo - For Xmas!

[ In Reply To ..]
I have never liked that song, probably because it gets in my head for days. Also, the one that Ms. Piggy and/or the muppets sing. I used to work at a bank and those two songs played over and over. I also worked at Old navy seasonally over Christmas when i was younger and everything they played in their (on repeat) is enough to drive you nuts! for 8 hours straight :)

The Day The Music DiedJul 09, 2017
A stunning – and stunningly disturbing - event took place this past weekend. But unless you were scouring the news very carefully, chances are you didn't even hear of it. The annual Bravalla Festival, one of the most popular summer music concerts in Sweden, was abruptly canceled. There will be no festival next year. Or ever. Given that tens of thousands of tickets were sold, the problem was not attendance. Nor was there any difficulty booking big-name rap and rock stars. No, ...

Music From Today's Younger Generation. May 22, 2012
I am from the generation of Free Love, Hippies, Vietnam and college demonstrations against war.  As a teenager I watched JFK being assasinated and watched as LBJ took office then.  I suppose that our music reflected the changes in our society and politics too.  We had so many wonderful classic age rock groups and singers -- Rolling Stones, Beatles, Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, Eric Clapton, the Doors, Crazy Joe Macdonald, Fleetwood Mac, Cat Stevens, Carol King and on and on.&n ...

I like fruitcake, I admit it, I'm not ashamed to say so -- so last night I bought a little itty-bitty $3.99 fruitcake to celebrate the 12 days of Christmas with a cup of herbal tea and a small slice after I finish work.  My son, on the other hand, says "Ug ...
