    Default Best and worst Christmas songs

    I heard my least favorite today and wanted to drive off a cliff just to get away from it. That would be Paul fucking McCartney and 'Simply Have a Wonderful Christmas Time'. Then 'Feliz Navidad' came on and I calmed down, slightly.

    Personally, this is my favorite:

    The Hippopotamus ditty makes me think "postal". Al Jarreau with his version of "The Christmas Song" is a real favorite, as is Natalie Cole's "Grownup Christmas Wish" (Amy Grant's version is great too).

    I like "Rockin' Around The Christmas Tree", "Jingle Bell Rock"...I'm sure I'll think of others.

    There's always this one, which can either make you happy or drive you insane:

    Love Eartha's version of Santa Baby. Loathe Suzie Snowflake and Dominick the Christmas Donkey. Kids scream make it stop when this comes on the radio.

    One of my faves since a year or two is O Holy Night/Divine by Donny Osmond.
    LOVE the arrangement and the opening (oohooing) is all Donny.

    Strangely, as someone who is an avowed atheist, from a musical prespective I quite enjoy the instrumentals of many of the religious carols. For example O holy night is gorgeous. My little atheist child is using it for her skating program in the christmas show.

    I hate "Grandma Got Run Over By a Raindeer". Badly.

    Love the Jackson 5 version of Little Drummer Boy, too.
    The monotony of the song is weirdly hypnotizing.
