How is it that "I Want a Hippopotamus for Christmas" not been mentioned yet? Worst song ever! Not only are the lyrics totally stupid, but I detest any song that has an adult singing who is pretending to be a kid. If you want the sound of a kid singing, then hire a kid. (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.

The Christmas Shoes song is so gimmicky - and the sad thing is that it's mostly done by Christian artists. Then again, there are some pretty gimmicky Christian artists as well - Steven Curtis Chapman's Cinderella for example - it begs to be in the cheesiest wedding video you've ever seen.

It's a Wonderful Life.
I do have a wonderful life but hate seeing 80 times a season.
I did like A Christmas story (esp. the Chinese rest. scene) but got extra tired of it.

Actually, "It's A Wonderful Life" has been playing once or twice per year for about 15 years now. The only reason I know this is because it's one of my mom's favorite movies of all time. She was sad when NBC bought the rights to showing the movie, because instead of being able to catch one of the multiple showings, she had to make sure that she found out it was showing so she didn't miss it. (That's right, I dug up an article from 1995!) We eventually bought the tape, and then DVD, so it's no problem anymore! I remember when NBC first bought the rights, it was only shown once per season, but according to this 2009 Christmas movie guide, NBC is showing it twice this year.
Now, Elf...THAT is in overplayed Christmas movie! (But I still love it... )

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

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

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.
