Least Favorite Christmas Carol

[carnation]

Bumping again because I heard my least favorite Christmas song (it's not really a carol!) on the way to work.

15 years later and still repulsed beyond words by Santa Baby (all versions).

[PGD-GRAD]

^^^ Agree with “Santa Baby” and I’d like to add “Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer”!

This came up on Facebook. It's hard to believe, but Dominick the Donkey has fans. NOT ME!!!

Yes. When you have to make-up silly lyrics every time you hear it, yes.

We'd best be merry Paul McCartney never tried to write a tune praising any other major holiday.

And while I still enjoy hearing it, the only reason "My Favorite Things" is intoned near the Christmas season is because NBC hasn't yet stopped showing The Sound Of Music on/near Xmas.

All of them. The end.

Yet once again, I must bump this because I've just heard that least favorite carol that started this thread 23 years ago!

[cheerfulgreek]

That “Santa Baby” one, if that counts. SO annoying.

[honeychile]

I find "The Little Drummer Boy" questionable at best. I'm giving birth in a stable after hours of riding on a donkey - the very last thing I want to hear is a drum solo!

I could very happily live the rest of my life without ever hearing Mariah Carey's "All I Want for Christmas Is You". I hate it! It's everywhere! I change the channel as soon as I hear that cheery piano intro.

True that! It’s all pretty damn annoying to me too.

I hate that song.

Christmas: “Tis the season to be jolly” but people are generally assholes to retail workers during the Christmas holidays. Maybe the music subliminally pisses everybody off, and they just don’t know it.

[Shellfish]

The ones I hate the most are coincidentally animal related:
"Jingle Bells" barked by those dogs
"The Chipmunk Song"
"Dominick the Donkey"

[carnation]

OMG! My aunt and uncle had a whole album by The Singing Dogs and played their Jingle Bells allll season.

The recent use of this song during the ENTIRE YEAR in a television commercial makes hearing it during the Christmas season MULTIPLE TIMES WORSE than before

Also, the local 24-hours-a-day Christmas Music radio station seems as though it plays the same eight Holiday Songs, but by different artists each time a particular song repeats.

This is definitely one of my mine. What the hell is jingle belling? And scary ghost stories? Are we getting confused with Halloween?

You all have mentioned all the ones that bug me. Santa Baby, All I Want for Christmas is You, but Most Wonderful Time of the Year is the one that makes me change the station.
