Can I B*tch About Christmas Music For a Minute?

Marsee

I love Christmas music, but my local radio station sucks. They play nothing but Christmas music from Thanksgiving til Dec. 26. I love listening to this, but they have GOT to get more variety. I know that Christmas music is kind of limited, but it's ridiculous here.

4 different versions of 'Last Christmas' (originally by Wham, I think)?! This isn't even a Christmas song, and now I have to listen to 4 crappy versions of this crappy song? Also, I like Peanuts as much as the next guy, but when did the theme song become a Christmas song?

I wanna hear:

Grandma Got Run Over By a Reindeer (what happened to this awesome song?)

Little Drummer Boy (duet with Bing and David Bowie--awesome)

Rusty Chevrolet (old school polka to the tune of Jingle Bells)

All I Want for Christmas is My Two Front Teeth and The Chipmunk Song (I really don't love these, but at least it would create some variety)

Christmas in Kilarney

etc., etc., etc. 

Okay. I'm done venting. What's your favorite Christmas song?

I love O Holy Night.

Our "christmas" station sucks here too. They don't play anything good. I've just been listening to Pandora.

I love O Holy Night.

 

This is my absolutely favorite song. Especially when sung by the Mormon Tabernacle Choir.

I love most choral versions of songs.

I love "we Need a little Christmas" and Dominick the Donkey. I also love Straight No Chaser's Xmas songs...they are a capella and cool versions of traditional songs, as well as their own stuff.

O Holy Night and Silent Night are my favorites.

I feel your NWOH pain!! 98.3 and 99.1 are both nothing but Christmas music. I'm so sick of it - I don't like Christmas music in the first place. I do like Mariah Carey's All I Want for Christmas and the Chipmunks xmas song.

One of our stations does that too. That station gets turned off until after Christmas. I don't love Christmas songs. In fact, I downright despise most of them. I do love Mariah Carey's "All I Want For Christmas Is You" though. Love it.
