Jose Feliciano - Feliz Navidad.

Oh yeaaaaaahhhh! This one for sure. Actually it's usually the artist more than the song that needs to be retired. :)

[gumbo]

It's a hol-ly-jol-ly Christmas. And whatever that one is that's done by Paul McCartney. Yecccch.

[Temple Drake]

"JINGLE BELL ROCK." It must DIE! I practically run my car off the road when this comes on the radio. BAN JINGLE BELL ROCK!!

[Dan from Michigan]

Bwahahahha @ Cheech and Chong.

"Let it snow"...I don't like snow.

[ex-Texan]

Add this one to the tired or banned list of Christmas songs and dittys:

"Alvin and the Chipmonks" singing anything about Christmas !

That chipmonk falsetto drove me nuts.

Have never heard most of the songs on your tired list. But then I mostly listen to talk radio. heh heh

Actually Melissa Etheridge's cover of John and Yoko's Happy Christmas is quite good (despite what one makes of her personal life.)

I remember your post from last year on the good Christmas tunes and agreed with your liking for Mannheim Steamroller, and Loreena Mckennit's Christmas album. I also enjoy the Pogues', "Fairytale of New York," and am somewhat reluctant to admit that Jewel has some decent cuts on her Christmas effort released last year...

[Richard M. Nixon]

John & Yoko - Happy Xmas (War Is Over).

BARF...

[Dan from Michigan]

Slightly off topic, one of my favorite Christmas songs....

AC/DC - Mistress for Christmas.........

[Republic]

That dang carol that has the dogs barking to Jingle Bells. Drives me NUTS! LOL

[Boxsford]

It's a vanity alright--but a cute one. At first when I read the title I thought, 'no way, all the songs are fun' but after reading your list I agree with you--ALL except the last one. I still kind of like that one. I guess I don't hear it as much as you do.

[farmfriend]

Dogs barking Jingle Bells gets my vote.

[thulldud]

Well, I'd like to kick the Little Drummer Boy's rump-a-pum-pum. Failing that, I'd settle for doing it to the composer or anybody who performs it in my hearing.

[JoeSchem]

It's been so long since they've been heard, 'Silent Night' and 'God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen' would sound new if they were played on the radio.

[Lucius Cornelius Sulla]

Well I'm hip to Cheech & Chong. They can't play for beans and they aren't funny anymore to boot. Were these guys EVER funny?

Well Cheech still gives a chuckle on 'Nashville Bridges', and Rae Dawn Cong(Tommy's daughter) is cute.

[ChemistCat]

The one with the dogs barking. Definitely a funny-once. But I agree we need to shoot the people who had anything to do with the one about the grandma and the reindeer; it actually makes my daughter cry.

I bought a CD of Christmas songs off a discount rack which may be the worst album ever digitally recorded. It's a very, very bad children's choir singing along with an off-tune piano. LOATHESOME. I'll send it free to anyone who wants it. It's Rocky Horror Picture Show bad but isn't even meant to be.

[looois]

I don't like "Blue Christmas." Not by anybody. I know, the Elvis version is a classic. But tear jerkers are not what I want to hear at Christmas. It's popular probably because, I understand, for those who are lonely anyway, Christmas time really makes them blue. Another so-called classic I don't care for is Orbison's "Pretty Paper."

[Joshua]

White Christmas by Bing Crosby. His whistling in that song drives me nuts!!!

[YaYa123]

Absolutely the best Christmas song ever.....a family tradition in our house. Elvis singing at his bluesy best. It's on one of his Christmas albums. I love it..lyrics are so great...my whole family loves it...we sing it like crazy, starting at Thanksgiving!

Found it!!!!

"Santa Claus is Back in Town"
Well, it's Christmas time pretty baby
And the snow is falling on the ground
Well, it's Christmas time pretty baby
And the snow is falling down
Well you be a real good little girl
Santa Claus is back in town

Got no sleigh with reindeer
No sack on my back
You're gonna see me comin' in a big black caddilac
Oh, it's Christmas time pretty baby
And the snow is falling on the ground
Well you be a real good little baby
Santa Claus is back in town

Hang up your pretty stockings
And turn off the light
Santa Claus is comin' down your chimney tonight
Oh, it's Christmas time pretty baby
And the snow is falling on the ground
Well you be a real good little baby
Santa Claus is back in town"
