Whatever that Christmas song is with Canon in D. I can't stand it!
Actually... I think it's called the Christmas Canon.

Still, I think it destroys a perfectly beautiful piece of music with some annoying repetitive lyrics sung by a bunch of kids in almost every store in every mall and at every house on every station 900 times an hour.

Elf?

I liked Bad Santa at first but I've seen it so many times anymore that I'm now annoyed by it.

(preferably one without a speech impediment, but that is a different rant for a different day)

Now A Christmas Story? I love that movie and watch it several times each year. It gets funnier ever single year.

I havent heard that song, but I would agree with your reasoning for not liking it :)

I finally watched it all the way through for the first time two years ago, while getting ready for a trivia tournament. I can definitely see why it's a classic. That said, shows truly become classic when they're only available to the general public maybe 2-3 times a year or on dvd.

As for All I Want For Christmas Is You by Mariah Carey, having seen love, actually before hearing it, I didn't even recognize the song. To me, they're two different songs - and I love Olivia Olson's version SO much better. (fyi - the version you hear in love, actually is really sung by the young girl named Joanna - Olivia Olson)

Seriously, no body has mentioned "Grandma got run over by a reindeer." Good googlymoogly, THIS song is something that I cannot stand! Maybe it's a country thing, but, Good Grief!

I think she said it best.

Also, I'm 100% on the Little Drummer Boy bandwagon. Can't stand it.

and I'm pretty sure no one mentioned "Grandma Got Run Over By a Reindeer" because that's just a given! No one likes that song!!!!

Oh!! I heard one... I think it's just called "Nothin' for Christmas". It goes "I'm gettin' nothin' Christmas, mommy and daddy are mad, I'm gettin' nothin' for Christmas, 'cause I ain't been nothin' but bad". Then it lists all the horrible things he's done followed by "Somebody snitched on me!" Awful. Just awful.

Incorrect, I like that song!

I'm not a fan of the Little Drummer Boy either, but I do enjoy listening to the Drummer Boy duet with David Bowie and someone else (forgot who).


I personally don't like "Joy to the World"

Bing Cosby. I am in pain that you remembered Bowie but not a legend like him.

Really?! I can understand the Grinch song (You're a mean one, Mr. Grinch...) but anything Dr. Seuss? That's wrong :D
