Worst Christmas Songs Ever - I have my own opinions on this topic, but I decided to look at a couple of sites. Rolling Stone and USA Today both have lists. I was surprised at how many I had never heard. I won't go through their lists, but to make a few observations.
- They shouldn't put in songs that are obviously spoofs and trying to be corny - The Alvin and the Chipmunks songs, "Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer", etc.
- Songs I don't know, but sound awful - "Funky, Funky, Xmas", "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Me"
- I don't know of it, but I can just imagine how much I would hate it - Justin Bieber's "Mistletoe".
- There are songs that made the list that I like - Neil Diamond's "Cherry, Cherry, Christmas". Jackson 5's "I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus" (a song my Dad liked - the closest he ever came to liking any song anywhere close to rock n' roll.)
- There are classic songs that I hate that didn't make the list. I don't understand that. Who appreciates "Little Drummer Boy", "Twelve Days of Christmas". Songs that sound like they'll never end. I used to like "Feliz Navidad", but I've already heard it a thousand times this season. Enough already.
