My least Favorite song is:
Jingle Bells and especially:
The Barking Dogs Jingle Bells
“Jingle Bells” by Barbra Streisand.
When I started college my first job was a night stocker at a big box store. Not only were we forced to listen to the corporate Christmas music on the loud speakers, but it came on one of those big reel to reel tapes that was so old and stretched out the tunes warbled. And every 1/2 hour or so that God awful rendition of Jingle Bells came on. The others on that reel were Some of the other obnoxious ones like “Holly Jolly Christmas” “Frosty the Snowman” Rudolph” “Rock around the Christmas Tree” But NOTHING was as awful as Jingle Bells Streisand style. There is a lot of competition for craptacular Christmas songs but that one takes the crapcake.
(I got busted by the manager when he came in early one morning. I would tape the PA handle at the help desk because that would shut off the speakers for whatever announcements were going to be made. WTF did the manager care when we were working at 3am?)
See, I would have said the Jackson Five version is tolerable and the Springsteen version is horrible.
When I was a kid I used to think "Go tell it on the mountain" was "There's jelly on the mountain" (over the hills and everywhere)...
Chapman would have been a hero if only he saved one of those bullets for Yoko.
Red....Seriously...tThanks....Just one???
Rudolf the Red nose Reindeer; Any Christmas song by John Lennon or any Beetle. Little Saint Nick Christmas, anything with Christmas and Rock in the title: Jazzy Christmas songs ; Dumb Blonde Hurry down the chimney tonight with its sexually suggestive message. a good start.
"Police Nab Me Dad!"
Have fun! We’re up to 3 and I’m thinking crack pipes for day 5
Winter Wonderland, especially the part with “Parson Brown”.
HAHAHAA. That just shook loose memories of a Christmas Show we were forced to do at elementary school. (I am old enough to have schools still call them “Christmas Shows”)
We sang that song and some Hanukah song.
That damn Paul McCartney Wings song!!!! Hands down!!!
A Marshmallow World. Unless it’s by Dino, with a couple of babes.
“He can’t sing.”
Yeah, he just kind of growls. Which works on a couple of his rockers, like maybe “Pink Cadillac” or something, but not on anything where he tries to actually carry a tune.
Even classical or Baroque style?
Let’s make that day 2.
On the first day of Christmas, the Big Guy gave to me
A laptop and a webcam
On the second day of Christmas, the Big Guy gave to me
Two golden showers
And a laptop and a webcam
On the third day of Christmas, the Big Guy gave to me
Three VPNs
Two golden showers
And a laptop and a webcam
On the fourth day of Christmas, the Big Guy gave to me
Four packs of condoms
Three VPNs
Two golden showers
And a laptop and a webcam
On the fifth day of Christmas, the Big Guy gave to me
Five crack pipes
Four packs of condoms
Three VPNs
Two golden showers
And a laptop and a webcam
OK! Who wants to add the next few days?
Springsteen sounds like he’s trying to pass a bowling ball. That’s when he’s not trying to sing with a fake southern accent.
When I was kid I didn’t know what the word “parson” meant. So I assumed it was a shade of brown. Pretending the snowman is parson brown made no sense at all.
“Little Drummer Boy”
I didn’t know how to hate this song until I became a parent.
Oh... I’d get kicked off... I’ll try.
