I'm the same way. I don't really like any of the really traditional Christmas songs. The only Christmas songs I like are "Christmas Wrapping" (I looove the 80's), "Jingle Bell Rock" (I like the Rockabilly sound), and the Charlie Brown theme song (I know it's not really a Christmas song, but I always associate it with Christmas).

Feliz(spl) navidad.....all the rest i love and well i have to say i get tired of hearing grandma got ran over by a raindeer 50 zillion times a day

This is sort-of related, but I have to share. We have an ice cream truck that circles the neighborhood every night, all year long. And every night, without fail, it plays the same 3 Christmas carols. In the middle of summer, fall, whenever, there is always a tinny rendition of "Silent Night" blasting through the neighborhood at 6pm.

FYI, the name of the song is "Linus and Lucy's Theme" or with a "the" somewhere... Just in case you see it on a music box or such.

Just to be anal-retentive (and in case someone is looking for it on a CD or elsewhere), the name is simply "Linus and Lucy."

There are no "Glorias" in "O Come, All Ye Faithful." I imagine you're thinking of "Angels We Have Heard on High."

Did you ever see the Christmas episode of The Vicar of Dibley where dim Alice Tinker was leading the village children in singing that carol? They started the "Glorias" and couldn't stop -- they just kept spiraling down and further down. Very funny -- became an inside joke at my house.

Amen. I can't stand pre-Thanksgiving, pre-Advent Christmas stuff everywhere.

oh yeah...thanks...well no, not thanks, it's stuck in my head now

"O come all ye faithful" is the one that has the "come and adore him, king of angles" as the chorus? that one's not as bad I guess, but still, no one who isn't bing crosby should sing it.
