I don’t know how old the writer is, but the entire story and background of “Do they know it’s Christmas” is lost on him.

So much for understanding stuff that you write about.

I think that was Lennon and yes it is the worst of the worst.

So this is Christmas and what have YOU done.

Feliz Navidad

I thought it was, "Police Nab Me Dad."

I hate “Grandma Got Run Over By a Reindeer.” Is that supposed to be funny? I loved my Grandma. I hate that song.

Lighten Up Francis.

I'm in my fifties, and I despise that song. It's tied for first place with "The Christmas Shoes" on my personal list of worst Christmas songs.

Sounds like someone’s corn flakes got peed in.

I just wish they would stop showing “A Christmas Story”.

And I’d like to hear the first 4 bars of “Grandma got run over by a reindeer” followed by the sounds of the evil DJ playing it being strangled.

That Mariah Carey one. Ugh! They blast that one and all of the Christmas rock songs while you’re trying to shop. So annoying. I do a lot of on-line shopping now, but occasionally I do like to shop in a store. I notice they really don’t seem to play the old Christmas songs or Christmas carols anymore. I’d just as soon not have any “Christmas music” in the stores if that’s all they’re going to play.

“...the Red-Nosed Reindeer...”

Wow, and all this time I thought he was a commie.

Sounds to me like he pretty much nailed it.

That is a John Lennon song. McCartney has one that is worse still. A Wonderful Christmas Time

Don’t even start me on Little Drummer Boy


LDB, by the Harry Simeone (not to be confused with the Fuzzy Monkey) Chorale, might be my favorite Christmas song of all.

4. ‘Last Christmas’

Gayest song, ever. Really, anyone who didn't realize that George Michael was gay then really needed to get their Gaydar readjusted.

Gee, and that song was written to help starving kids in a Communist country (Ethiopia). I thought that the New York Times told me that things like that did not happen under such governments.
