I like most Christmas songs except for the Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer thing.

However growing up in Atlanta they used to play some cloyingly sentimental stuff. I haven't heard these on the air for years, but John Waters put them on his Christmas Album, which of course I bought immediately.





The Waters album has a few pretty good unironic songs too.

OK, it's not my most hated and there are good versions out there, but this makes me crazy. A verse from, Do You Hear What I Hear?:

Quote:
A child, a child, shivers in the cold;
We will bring him silver and gold.
Every time I hear this, I think, "Why not bring him a blanket?" Because it's just stupid. The lyricist needed to try a little harder.

Agreeing. I guess the silver and gold is to buy him a blanket. Either that or the lyricist got mixed up on the three wise men. Looking at the lyrics, that wouldn't be a star but a comet.

You are cruel and evil and shouldn't even get a lump of coal in your stocking.
That made the Chipmunks sound good.

You put the entire album.

I'm not sure I made it as far as you did! The posts about Chipmunks above reminded me of hearing the squirrel song in my youth. I didn't remember anything but the chorus. I guess my brain blocked the rest
