Despised: Dominic the Christmas Donkey, Christmas Shoes (too maudlin), All I want for Christmas is you/ my 2 Front Teeth (two for one), Nothing for Christmas, and I want a Hippo...
Wise woman you got there!
Again little drummer boy was cute when we were kids but it drives me crazy now..
“I really dislike “The Little Drummer Boy”’
The Bing Crosby David Bowie version is a nice duet.
YES! I feel like it is a funeral song. I know it’s the end of an era or a year but my goodness that is the most nasty depressing stab in the heart type song. No wonder everybody gets drunk as a drunker! I do not like the song I don’t care for it and I try to avoid it as much as I can! We are entering a new year you would think the New Year’s Eve song would be a happy let’s celebrate and usher the new year with gladness and joy not a funeral!
Joy to the World
Actually, Joy to the World is not a Christmas song.
It was written about the second coming of Christ, when He establishes His rule on earth. Look at the lyrics and it will be obvious.
Joy to the world! The Lord is come
Let earth receive her King
Let every heart prepare Him room
And heaven and nature sing
And heaven and nature sing
And heaven, and heaven, and nature sing
Joy to the Earth! The Saviour reigns
Let men their songs employ
While fields and floods, rocks, hills, and plains
Repeat the sounding joy
Repeat the sounding joy
Repeat, repeat the sounding joy
No more let sins and sorrow grow
Nor thorns infest the ground
He comes to make His blessings flow
Far as the curse is found
Far as the curse is found
Far as, far as, the curse is found
He rules the world with truth and grace
And makes the nations prove
The glories of His righteousness
And wonders of His love
And wonders of His love
And wonders, wonders, of His love!

I find the Christmas story compelling enough that I don’t think there is a need for made-up characters. That’s why I don’t like the song
I didnt see the hot chicks but those dancing girls in the background were giving that dance everything they had. Literally laughed out loud.
Killer bass line in that song.
Rudolf and Buddha and prophet oha ed,
all hoping you will give the a great gift,
hindus and Sikhs are toasting each other,
Xmas gives everyone such a great lift.
(it’s not a real song but I like to invent new lyrics for mall tunes) ...
“I’m dreaming of a black Christmas”
“have a gruesome Newsom Christmas”
“Jingle bells, Batman smells”
“We three queens of Orient are”
“I’ve been drinking my rum-a-tum-tum”
but it drives me crazy now..
Agreed!
So true! I should get my niece and nephews to write and produce an upbeat one!
Here’s one they revised for Christmas!

Last Christmas ( I gave you my heart) Absolutely HATE IT. I turn the radio off when it comes on.
Anything Pentatonix sings is beautiful.
I like Last Christmas by Wham. I think it is about a man who gives his heart to Jesus
Wow! I was just coming on here to say my most disliked Christmas songs were any sung by Mariah Carey. But then anything sung by Mariah Carey is on my most disliked tune.
Real estate?
Imagine how Mary felt when she gets the Baby Jesus to sleep and the little drummer boy shows up playing his drum.
I wish this had a Like button.
