Ha. was going to mention that song but figured only those of us from Baltimore would get it.
Do you know Vince Vance and the Valiants, “All I want for Christmas is You.” ?
I loathe Santa Baby too. And it’s not exactly a Christmas song, but it gets played as if it was : Baby, It’s Cold Outside. SERIOUS hate for that atrocity. Also Is That You, Santy Claus? But I did like that one in Nightmare Before Christmas...Probably the ONLY time the song was used appropriately.
Since Madonna is merely a Marilyn impersonator (and not a very good one, BTW) it stands to reason that her cover version would suck.

I want to say that Adam Sandler is a Republican, but I could be wrong.
I think his songs are pretty funny. I like that he doesn’t seem to take himself seriously...ever.
"I Yust Go Nuts At Christmas" by Yogi Yorgesson
Oh, I yust go nuts at Christmas
On that yolly holiday
Ill go in the red like a knucklehead
Cuz I'll squander all my pay.
Vince Vance was also the one who recorded “Bomb Iran” (to the tune of Barbara Ann) back in the 1980s.
“I like that he doesnt seem to take himself seriously...ever.”
I think you’ve described Adam Sandler well. His upcoming movie seems to be a good, wholesome flick for kids and families. I think he’s not been warped by Hollywood.
Yet.
Ditto to your post!
Good list.
Here’s the best Christmas song ever: O Holy Night, sung by any decent singer.
But of course, the Nat King Cole version is outstanding.
Those are marshmallow clouds being friendly
In the arms of the evergreen trees
And the sun is red like a pumpkin head
It's shining so your nose wont freeze.
The world is your snowball, see how it grows
That's how it goes whenever it snows
The world is your snowball just for a song
Get out and roll it along
It's a yum-yummy world made for sweethearts
Take a walk with your favorite girl
It's a sugar date, what if spring is late
In winter it's a marshmallow world.
Nah, that’s a great song! Hilarious and cute.
Is that right. Now I know two songs by the guy. LOL.
Yeah...good cause, awful song.
I love the Muppet version of that song.
I hate the songs that McCarthy and Lennon did. I change the station every time eitheer of those come on the radio.
I also hate Grandma Got Run over by a Reindeer, Feliz Navidad and some newer version of O Holy Night I recently heard on the radio. They removed all references to Christ, changed the words to delete any references to him, so I was left wondering what makes the night Holy or Divine? She keeps singing that it is, but never says why. PC run amuck.
Let me recommend two comedy Christmas songs that may cleanse the palate after hearing Grandma Got Run Over By A Reindeer. Both are by the blues group Duke Tumato. Hard to find but worth the effort.
Look Out, It’s Santa!
It’s a Drag to Get Your Stomach Pumped on Christmas
You think the song’ bad? They actually made an hour long animated Christmas special out of it.
I heard a version of Little Drummer Boy that was tolerable this year, from Jars of Clay. Not fantastic, but I could listen to it more than one time.
