Amy Grant's Christmas CD. Every Christmas of my childhood that I can remember.

Ugh.

The one I loathe most is the Christmas Shoes song. "Oh hey, my mom's about to croak! Merry Christmas!" :mad:

I have warned all of my friends that I will be packing heat, and will shoot out any radio/pa system/whatever that plays that. They also know that I'm not kidding.

This song makes my ear drums bleed. I love Bruce, but come on!!!

Any and all holiday-related Claymation specials (i.e. Rudolph, Frosty, etc).

I hate them all.

"Little Drummer Boy" is the one I detest - although not as violently as in years past.

Why do so many people hate Little drummer boy?

Count me in for the Christmas shoes song, seriously who thought that would be a good idea?

I also loathe the U2 "feed the world" yadda yadda song for similar reasons. First of all, there will not be snow in Africa this Christmas, but there never has (except perhaps on the peaks of Mt. Kilimanjaro) so I don't think they'll miss it. Second of all, I loathe people reprimanding you for being a bad person via song. How do you know I don't work to stop world hunger? Stop yelling at me Bono!

Count me in the hating Little Drummer Boy camp. And I'm not sure why I don't like it - maybe because I feel like it has no melody? I can't pin down a reason, I just really don't like it. Though I did like it when Angela performed it on The Office :)

Angela: Is there any way our first dance can be to my favorite song, The Little Drummer Boy?
Andy: Of course!
Angela: Really?
Andy: Yeah! I mean it's a great song. I always thought it was bigger than Christmas anyway. You know?

:D

Little Drummer Boy

"Rum-bump-bum-pa-bum bum" or whatever it is is a lousy excuse for a lyric.

Bad Santa, anyone?

Elf?

If it mentions Jesus, I will tolerate it. I went to Christian school and I remember the librarian and my friend's mother, who happened to teach at the school, singing "Little Drummer Boy" together in harmony during library time. I was really impressed and will never forget it. We did a Christmas program every year so I LOVE all the Christian Christmas songs by default and know most of them.

"Christmas Shoes" has got to be the worst. It's a crap message and on top of everything else, it doesn't rhyme.

listen to Patton Oswalt discussing Christmas Shoes
