I've always liked "Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer", though I didn't know until last night that someone did a cover of it.

My favorite is the barking dogs doing "Jingle Bells".

The one song that I can't stand is "Jingle Bell Rock".

Christmas Shoes. It is the most schlocky, sappy, over the top self-rightceous, preachy, gag inducing horrid songs EVER.

One reviewer commented "It is the melodic equivilent to drinking an entire bottle of honey while euthanizing the family pet".

I'm sorry Nanny. I've heard it a few times. My mother in Law loves the song, and makes us all suffer through it when it comes on the radio. Give it some time. Your ears will heal, although the mental damage can take years to repair.

There is one song I like but I don't know the name of it. It's about the guy who runs into his old girlfriend at the grocery store. They buy a six pack and sit in the car drinking. At the end they play the first lines to Auld Lang Syne. It's pretty.

All of them!

I worked in a mall a few years ago and the mall manager had a really bad cd with really tacky versions of the 'hits', on a constant loop.

I was still hearing the songs while trying to get to sleep at night. Evil or Very Mad

For years I looked for the writers of the Little Drummer Boy so I could reach down their throats and rip their lungs out. But I think they are all dead now and rotting in hell.

Now I am thinking of burning down local radio stations that play that moronic song. Don't get me started . . . . . Evil or Very Mad

My Xmas favourite is "Let's Farm Well This Year as Asked by the Rural Theses" by North Korean Military Self-Entertainment Troupe 3207. The B-side is good, too, "Army Zone No. 3 is a Scenic Paradise in Winter."

Re Christmas Shoes.
From wikipedia

Quote:

In Tom Reynolds 2006 book I Hate Myself and Want to Die: The 52 Most Depressing Songs You've Ever Heard, he names "The Christmas Shoes" as the most depressing song in modern recorded music history.

So it's not recommended then?

Well, on another blog dedicated to the worst Christmas music, Christmas Shoes was rated #1. It was noted that it was the "Melodic equivilent to drinking an entire bottle of honey while euthanizing the family pet".

If that's not a ringing endorsement, I'm not sure what is.

Here is the song if you haven't heard it.

I just threw up a little bit when I heard the first verse. Your milage may vary.

I am an unbiased party. Living over on the right of the puddle, I have never heard, or even heard of, The Christmas Shoes before.

I forced myself to listen to the whole youtube video.

It's among the worst songs I have ever heard, let alone the worst Christmas songs. I agree 100% to the blog comment about the honey and the family pet.

About the only worse song that I know is I Want My Baby Back*, and that one isn't about Christmas.

* It comes up in Google, but I seriously suggest you don't look. Bad taste as well as bad music.

Yet another satisfied customer.

They have another song out called "Christmas Carol". I'm looking for a link with the song.

Here is a sample of the lyrics:

Christmas Carol
I first met her in December on a snowy winter`s night
And it didn`t take me long to see that something wasn`t right
They called her Christmas Carol

Said her mind was nearly gone
But she could still light up the room
When she sang a Christmas song

Excuse me while I throw up for a second.

I was able to get one minute into it before I closed the window.

I just didn't want to know how much worse it could get. It's much much worse than "Jingle Bell Rock".
