As some radio stations have already begun playing Christmas Songs, it is time once again to compile our annual list of the absolute worst musical offerings of the season. The first three songs on my list are pretty much indisputibly the worst songs ever written as musical celebrations of the season. The fourth I've only heard recently but immediately recognized that it certainly belongs in any top ten list of worst Christmas songs. The rest of the list should be wide open, so please post your contributions. Here is my top four songs on the list, with the top three being considered beyond debate:
1. Happy Xmas War is Over, by John Lennon
2. Simply Having a Wonderful Christmas Time, by Paul McCartney
3. Last Christmas I Gave You My Heart, by George Michael / Wham?
4. Must Be Santa, by Bob Dylan

An Old Fashioned Christmas
Linda Somebody
(A bunch of people get killed in a bus crash—but screw them!—Daddy got home safe.)
3. Last Christmas I Gave You My Heart, by George Michael / Wham?
Gotta’ be the absolute worst ever . . . I get mad when I hear this piece of garbage over loud speakers. Good God.

“The Little Saint Nick” RULES.
It's just a seasonal song, but it's pathetic.
AC/DC - “Mistress for Christmas”: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0mOBUUhsRwc
Spinal Tap - “Christmas With The Devil”: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KneOdEDwDEc
Happy Birthday Dear Jesus by R. Lee Ermy.
How about “I yust go nuts at Christmas” by Jorgi Jorgenson?
Actually the version of Must be Santa by Texas’ polka rock band Brave Combo isn’t bad.
I have alternate lyrics to the Lennon tune: “War is over/
CAUSE we WON it/ WE have WON it, now...”
Christmas at Ground Zero has a diff. meaning post 9/11.
Even before then, Yankovic’s nasal voice a bit of a turn off.
There’s a novelty song John Waters put on his Christmas album (probably on youtube) called Here Comes Fatty Claus with his Sack of S—t.
I do like the Irish Rovers version of “Grandma”. The 45’s b side “Merry Bloody Xmas”: Merry X-mas to me, my dog threw up all over the x-mas tree. They repossessed me color TV.
Oh merry bloody X-mas, to me.”
funny funny. made me laugh.
