In a few days, the pain will stop. The pain, that is, of awful and most heinous Christmas songs. I already know that I am going to Hell. Former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright said that I was going to Hell because I didnt support Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. My friends and I are renting a party bus.
We wont be listening to Christmas Songs on the bus. They are headache inducing. Self-explanatory
I hereby propose that the following Christmas songs have achieved a level of heinousness that would cause my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ to shove a dreidel directly in his brain. Jesus probably doesnt mind the Dreidel Song, he is gonna get Adam Sandler for the Hanukkah Song, for sure. Sorry, I got off track there. Jesus celebrated Hanukkah and, my mind wandered away.

Just listened to that. So beautiful! New favorite.
i have elvins version on my playlist. is a good one.
I never understood why someone talked both Burl and his record label into believing the man had a great singing voice.
:-)
Thank God Poland hasn’t succumbed, I pretty much listen now to Polish Koledy...
My favorite Polish carol sung by Anna German....her voice literally brings tears to my eyes....
Gdy Sliczna Panna

English Translation:
As the lovely maiden
As the lovely maiden cradled her dear Child,
She rocked Him gently, crooning with voice mild.
Li li li, my darling, dearest Child of mine,
li li li , my dearest, lovely, lovely Child.
All the words that maiden sang to Him,
Came from a heart so joyful, free from sin,
Li li li , my Kingling, greatest Kingling mine,
li li li, my Kingling, greatest heavnly King.
Then the host of angels, gathered all above,
Sang with the maiden their own song of love:
Li li li, earths flower, loveliest flowr of all,
li li li, earths flowr, O holiest Child of all.
Thanks! I love Barlowgirl. The oldest Lullay is not the Coventry carol, theres one even older than that.
Very lovely, clear voice - thanks for sharing!

Jihadis’ favorite Christmas song: “Dominic the Donkey.”
I’m glad no one mentioned “Run, Run Rudolph.” I love that one. That and the doo-wap version of “White Christmas.” I wait for these to come on.
Are you referring to the migrant jihadi who just got arrested for raping a donkey at the children’s zoo? I think it was in Germany. It’s okay though because jihadi culture ...
I actually like most of the so-called “classics” - once or twice. The problem is that my local Christian station that I keep on in the car and house plays them over and over and over from Thanksgiving through Christmas. I’m so sick if Rudolph and Frosty and Burl Ives and Brenda Lee....
Trans Siberian Orchestra.Yes saw them live two weeks ago. It was a great show a very Christian performance, giving praise to First Responders and the Military. Super light show all night. Hope they comeback next year.
Some songs on your list I completely agree with. “Mary Did You Know” is not one of them. I think the Kenny Rogers and Wynonna Judd version is hauntingly beautiful. I don’t think the song is making Mary out to be a fool or being intentionally misleading in its Biblical interpretation. I think it is, rather, asking us to put ourselves, especially those of us who are parents, in Mary’s place and asking if we know the majesty of the deed and how humble it would make us feel. When I think of it that way, I can’t help but be moved. It is one of the few Christmas songs they still play on the radio that explores the real meaning of Christmas and I think that we should be grateful for that.
It finally got through to me this year that there’s no way on earth to make “The Little Drummer Boy” not be annoying. I don’t care who performs it.
