Anything butchered by anyone! We listened to Christmas carols all the way home from the beach yesterday and why do singers think that we want them to put new notes in a beloved carol--or change the whole rhythm?

"Christmas Time is Here" from Charlie Brown. OMG! Why would you let a bunch of kids sound so miserable. I can't even listen to what they are saying. It sounds like the most unhappiest song EVER.
Also, there is one song and I don't know the name because I only hear the bass line, but I'm going to find out what it is and make the booth next to us at work stop playing it. ETA: I heard it today in Dillard's and I'm still not quite certain. It is just some random Christmas-esque words over a bass line and music. Stupid.
I also do not like any Spanish version of any well-known English Christmas song.
If anyone else has a big Latin population, you've probably heard this wonderful remix of a song I think it may be called "Con Mi Burrito" about a child taking his donkey to see the newborn baby Jesus with little kids singing. So cute. Grew up with that one even though it took me forever to understand what they were saying.
ETA: How could I forget Christmas Shoes. A) The song is not very catchy and it doesn't rhyme, not that every song has to, but it'd help. B) What kid would buy shoes for their dying mom? They'd probably buy a pretty necklace, earrings, or bracelet. Maybe a scarf. But SHOES? And C) Why are they in a store alone? Where is the father, auntie, cousin, etc?!
Go and be with your mother, that is the best gift, especially if she's going to pass on. It makes me cringe...

Anything with "a rum-pa-pa-pum" in it--and ditto on the hippopotamus and grandma getting run over by the reindeer---
Oh--and any Christmas "muzak" that you are forced to listen to by department stores that put you on hold during December!! Bah, humbug!

"All I Want for Christmas is You" by Mariah Carey. I hate EVERYTHING that comes out of this woman's mouth already, so you know how much I despise this song.

I LOVE Christmas music (my iPod has 500 Christmas songs on it) but I still cringe when I hear "Mary Did You Know?" I think I found one to top that, though. Our local Christmas station played a song called "Dear Mr. Jesus" where a child sings about seeing child abuse on the news. The big climax of the song comes when the kid sings something like "Dear Mr. Jesus, my mommy hits me, too." I don't know how it's a Christmas song, but it drove me insane.

I love really, really love traditional Christmas Hymns. My husband however has managed to spoil (not really) one of them for me. Angels We Have Heard on High is one our music ministers favorties and leads the church congregation in singing it throughout the holidays. The problem, my husband hates it. Everytime we get to the part.... glo-o-o-o-o-ria in excelsis deo, my husband, the butt head starts singing .......deo..deeeo..delight comes and I want to go home. As for me, I can't stand the 12 Days of Christmas.......................p.s. Merry Christmas Everyone!!!

^^^ DITTO!!! *cringing as the song plays in my head*
Plus any commercial rendition of "Little Drummer Boy" (even Stevie Wonder's) and "Silent Night". My mom damn near cries when she hears The Temptations' version of "Silent Night", but I always change the station or skip the song on a CD. I appreciate the meaning of the song, but it always feels like the person singing is trying too hard to pull my heartstrings. I'd rather see the artist donate to a worthy cause instead of singing that song.
If this makes me some kind of a heathen...so what?

I have no idea who sings it, but the latest version of "Hey Santa" that sounds like it's being sung by a teenager.
That, and Christmas Shoes are the only two that I really can't stand. Everything else is fine in moderation.
