You need “Holly Jolly Christmas” by Burl Ives on this list. The sine qua non of bad Christmas music.

Holly Jolly Christmas is one of those non-Christian “Christmas” songs - more like a “Winterfest” or “Festivus” song...

I do not like all the new songs that are over done either with synthesizers or wailing or horrible scratchy singing like Taylor Swift. There is as an example Carol of the Bells that sounds like angry synthesizer bells.

I like the older instrumental and singing from the 1960’s and older.

Just had two more come on the radio to add: Spike Jones “I saw mommy kissing Santa Claus” and Dinah Shore/Buddy Clark “Baby it’s cold outside”. All involved should be executed.

"You need “Holly Jolly Christmas” by Burl Ives on this list."

I never understood why someone talked both Burl and his record label into believing the man had a great singing voice.
