1. Feliz Navidad

[dynasaw]

1. the little drummer boy

one of the stupider songs! eck!

[Lydia Leftcoast]

2. Silent Night and Away in a Manger

and as a choir member, I have to sing them every Christmas.

I also hate all the commercial Christmas songs. Every last one of them.

[SoxFan]

3. That damn Chipmunks thing

[Sebastian Doyle]

39. You mean THIS damn Chipmunks thing?

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

4. Do You Hear What I Hear.

:puke:

[Texasgal]

8. Werd.

The worst song ever.

[Jade Fox]

28. The worst...

The worst version: Bob Seger.

[NightWatcher]

5. "Simply having a wonderful christmas time" P. McCartney

I worked retail at the mall one christmas and that song was played a million times

[mokawanis]

6. The 12 days of xmas

that fucking song is like 3 hours long, or so it seems.

[Sebastian Doyle]

41. But the Canadian version is pretty cool, eh?

[frogmarch]

7. Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer! nt

[mwooldri]

31. My nan died 12/24/1984. By a tractor, apparently (too young to remember).

As such, this song is banned in our household.

Mark.

[Systematic Chaos]

9. The Barbara Streisand version of Jingle Bells is the most retarded piece of shit ever.

One of those songs that's not just my least favorite Christmas song, but one of the most retarded, pathetic recordings ever committed to audio tape.

:puke::puke::puke:

[Sebastian Doyle]

15. Oh no it isn't!

Barbara's singing voice has always made me cringe, frankly. But THIS is far more hideous :scared:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w7zHSPG0ZvE

And no, it's not a RickRoll, I swear.

[Dr. Strange]

21. Sweet foamy magma! I wish that HAD been a rickroll!

Although the carrot-play was mildly amusing.

[Systematic Chaos]

33. That was pretty hideous, but I'm sorry - it's nowhere NEAR as vomit-inducing...

... as the Streisand jjjjinglebellsallonewordjammedtogethernosenseofrhythm. :puke:

[PassingFair]

40. "I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus"

...used to give me nightmares.

[gmoney]

49. Heard the Mellencamp version in the store the other night... ick.

[snailly]

29. Worst song rendition EVER!

Horrible. I want to rip my ear drums out and stomp on them for good measure when this song is played.

[gmoney]

48. The amphetamines are so unpredictable

Technically, Jingle Bells doesn't mention Christmas or anything religious... just a winter song. But that was painful.

[Montauk6]

10. Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer

Not cute, not clever, not funny.

And I absolutely loathe and detest any Xmas performance by Mannheim Steamroller.

[Montauk6]

11. You've gotta hear the Jimmy James as Bette Davis version of "Feliz Navidad"

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RzlZ7RjLT9M

[Kingofalldems]

12. Any Christmas song performed by Kathy Lee Gifford

[foxfeet]

20. Can't argue with you there.

Treacle.

[Va Lefty]

13. Springsteen's version of "Santa Claus is Coming to Town"

Usually love Bruce, but I always try to see if I can get thru Christmas without hearing that damn song. I'm rarely successful in that endeavor.

[latebloomer]

22. oh, I love that song!

[skygazer]

14. I work retail. I hate all of them.

They'll be starting up at work next Friday. Eight hours a day, 40 hours a week. Nonstop. Shoot me now. :nuke:

[LeftyMom]

16. I hear you.

The worst was the Christmas I had a part time job at a toy store, and got to hear christmas carols performed by muppets, the chipmunks, tween pop stars, etc from the day after Halloween until well into January.

Pure f'n torture.

[zanne]

38. I've been there.

It took years to appreciate Christmas music again.

[KitchenWitch]

17. "Rocking Around the Christmas Tree"

Brenda Lee should have never tried to sing, ever.

[Skittles]

23. ditto

:puke:

[pokerfan]

27. But she's coming on strong....

Radio's playing some forgotten song
Brenda Lee's 'Coming on Strong'

[peruban]

18. Grandma got run over by a reindeer

Does that count?

[Guava Jelly]

19. ..

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VNsvE33pRSw
This makes me want to drown kittens.

[LoveMyCali]

30. Good God

could you give a little warning? I almost couldn't get out of there before it started, which doesn't really matter because the damn song is running through my head now anyway. :banghead:

[Lyric]

24. Pretty much all of them. Except for the beautiful hymns, they're all cheesy.

I'm an Atheist who'd rather listen to "O Holy Night" and "O Come All Ye Faithful" than "Jingle Bell Rock" and "The Christmas Song" ANY day.

:hi:

[Drunken Irishman]

25. Please don't laugh at me, but Carnie & Wendy Wilson - Hey Santa.

:blush:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VO8NYJ0bZ1c

[last_texas_dem]

26. "Santa Baby": any version

Highly annoying, in my opinion. On the other hand, I love the commonly-hated "Wonderful Christmastime" by Paul McCartney. What can I say? haha

[LiberalEsto]

44. Amen. I totally hate it. NT

[CatholicEdHead]

32. Please Daddy Don't Get Drunk on Christmas

http://www.cowboylyrics.com/lyrics/denver-john/please-daddy-dont-get-drunk-on-christmas-11312.html

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZL1zfvMCDWM

Yep, it is a John Denver song.

[regnaD kciN]

34. "The Most Wonderful Time Of The Year"...

Any song that can pull of the Rumsfeldian achievement of turning "jingle bell" and "mistletoe" into verbs deserves a place in Satan's Holiday Collection. Plus "there'll be scary ghost stories"...WTF? Did the writer of this song actually have a completely-different holiday a couple of months earlier in mind?

(Actually, not to sound too much like a fundamentalist, but virtually every Christmas song -- particularly written from the '50s until now -- that doesn't even mention...you know...Christmas except as a highly-secular time of gift-giving, feasting, snowy landscapes, and some guy in a red suit winds up on my sh*t-list. Guys, if you want to write a "winter solstice celebration" song, go ahead and call it a winter solstice celebration song...just don't insist that your Saturnalia anthem is really about "Christmas.")

35. Dominick the Donkey

[struggle4progress]

36. Don't Shoot Me Santa

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dqKXGeV6-Wk&feature=related

[struggle4progress]

37. E-mail Santa

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yg64Y_mhtjQ

[Sebastian Doyle]

42. Ever wondered what a Black Sabbath Xmas album would sound like?

Probably something like this.......

[Systematic Chaos]

45. Fucking 66 years old and he still knows how to bring the house down.

My mind completely boggles.

:yourock:

[azmouse]

43. Any Christmas song by The Carpenters

[HughBeaumont]

46. Happy XMas (War is Over). Sung by ANYone.

I know, that loses me liberal points, but who cares. Cats clawing a blackboard at a morgue housing your family. A barbituate overdose of a song if I've ever heard one, and Yoko Ono's "voice" doesn't make it any easier.

Runners up:

I Want A Hippopotamus for Christmas by Gayle Peavey. Yet another reason to hate the 50s.

Santa Claus is Coming to Town - Bruce Springsteen. Sung with all of the subtlety of a drunk at his favorite karaoke palace.

Any Christmas song sung by a diva, boy band or modern R&B group. Instant disaster.

[gmoney]

47. Christmas Shoes, as a concept

http://www.google.com/url?sa=U&start=1&q=http://www.youtube.com/watch%3Fv%3D_ysMpr8mNRM&ei=apgoSauTD5y8MsXEiIIC&usg=AFQjCNENjKAyO6aEsv4ioimH6PFGXg-cbA

In practice, not much is more reprehensible than "Grandma got run over by a reindeer"

[Maccagirl]

50. I want a hippopotamus for Christmas

Blue Christmas by Elvis and
All I want for Christmas is my two front teeth.

Hate 'em all!
