Which Christmas song do you wish you never had to hear again?

Dec 8, 2011 11:56 PM

Title says it all!

I like Christmas music, but there's a few that I'd put on that list:

- Santa Baby - any version
- Happy Christmas (War is Over) - any version
- Christmas Shoes - NewSong

If I had to choose one, it would be the latter. Horrid, horrid song!

"Grandma got run over by a reindeer" is banned from my humble abode.

I have to admit to a certain fondness for Santa Baby, but ONLY the Eartha Kitt version. I don't recognize the third one you name, but I'm sure you're correct (and I'm sure that I'm happy not to hear it).

Blue Christmas by Elvis (or anyone)

Any cover of traditional christmas music by random groups that can't sing, or that feel it would be oh, so much better, if they just helped it along. I've heard enough bad versions of Silver Bells that I want to pull out the hunting gear. I love christmas music. I really do. I now have This Christmas stuck in my ear, dammit. I hated that song the first time I heard it.

I'm going to go off now and listen to my old CDs of early stuff from Dean Martin (best Let It Snow ever), and then throw The Bishop's Wife on the DVD player, and try to get that horrid sound out of my ear.

For revenge: Any version, at all, whatsoever, of I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus.

Geez Scrooge.

Just kidding. I personally have had too much of silver bells and chestnuts roasting on an open fire.

as a general rule in my household, if it was recorded after the early 60s, then I'm not interested in it. I grew up listening to Bing Crosby, Nat King Cole and Frank Sinatra Christmas music. All else is pretty much garbage (except a few versions of Christmas in Killarny, and the original Jingle Bell Dogs -- sorry, it was a childhood thing for me).

Feliz Navidad. I've always pretty much lived in areas that have a large bilingual population so it's a popular song on the radio, but it just gets stuck in my head and I find myself hearing the song in my head way more than I like.

Anything at all by Alvin & the Chipmunks.

Christmas Shoes, I may sound like a jerk for that but I can't handle listening to that again.

"Do They Know It's Christmas" by Band Aid. I appreciate the meaning and purpose behind it, but the song itself is just embarrassingly bad.

Even Bob Geldof thinks so, and he WROTE it.

Rockin' Around the Christmas Tree... I don't actually hate the song, but it's my wife's favorite and I've heard it just a few hundred too many times.

@dreamyvelvet: I generally agree about Feliz Navidad... But ever since my daughter at 4 years old messed up and sang it "I wanna wish you a merry christmas from the heart of my bottom"... I can't resist.

all Christmas songs. It may have to do with the fact that they begin playing them non stop on the radio while still in the month of November. Damn people let Thanksgiving pass by first.

My mom played the Elvis Christmas CD from Thanksgiving through New Year's non-stop for 15 years.

If I have a blue-(insert Elvis noises)- Christmas, I might just shoot someone. We've started buying her a new Christmas CD every year, just to interrupt Elvis.

Also, anything with Chipmunks in it.

Not a farewell, just a forced redirect.

It's true, Local.Woot is no longer, but please don't despair.

Never-ending savings are still to be found on Deals.Woot each and every day, so come on in. Don't think of it as a time for tears. Think of it as a way to bring us all closer together under one roof.

Sorry

This is only for people who have bought woots

We restrict voting to users who have purchased something from one of the other Woot stores. It's not just because we want your money (which we do) - it's the best way to be sure all the votes are coming from real people and not spam-bots or phony accounts. The best way we can think of, anyway. For now.

You can always get voting rights by buying something from one of Woot's other sites:

Purchases through Deals.Woot don't count, because in that case you're not buying anything from us. And we don't have your account information for those purchases.

If you think you've bought something from Woot before and still can't vote, make sure you're logged in with the same account you used to buy from us.

Geez, why so negative?

You have to vote up more before you can vote down.

Don't get us wrong. Negativity has its place. And downvotes are just as essential as upvotes when it comes to making Deals.Woot a useful place to find deals.

But when your votes lean so heavily toward the dark side, we have to wonder. Go vote up a few things. Accentuate the positive for a little while. It'll do you some good, and it'll do the site some good, too. Then you can get back to dealing out the smackdowns, OK?

Too late, we all heard you!

Hmm... you're wanting to take your vote back?

Well, that's a bit tricky. See, we do a lot of stuff with your vote, using it to work out the popularity of what you voted for, compare that to all the other things voted on, tally up our leaderboard, work out your reputation. Someday we'll do a little cartoon showing just how hard your vote is working.

Anyway, taking votes back messes all that up, so we give you five minutes, in case you just mis-clicked. After that we've got to say no take-backs. Luckily, votes are free, so feel free to throw them around left and right wherever you see fit.
