Least favorite holiday song?

Discussion in 'Anything goes' started by Ace, Dec 7, 2007.

  1. I would like the radio PD's across America to understand that the godawful Dan Fogelberg song -- the one where they can't find an open bar put find an open liquor store and Dan drinks beer in the car with his old love while all thinking human beings with ears blow chunks all over the room. Yeah, that one. -- is NOT A FREAKING CHRISTMAS SONG.
    Thank you.

    I'm convinced that either McCartney didn't write that song or it went something like this:

    Exec: Paul, you really should do a Christmas song but since the holiday is in three days you need to do it now.

    Paul: But I'm simply having a wonderful Christmastime.

    Exec: Perfect. Just sing that a bunch of times and it will be gold.
     
  3. I think it is absolutely the model for Dana Carvey's "Choppin' Broccoli," and was cut roughly the same way.

    Once while I worked in retail, I had to endure the Elvis version of "Winter Wonderland" for 45 consecutive minutes after the CD playing over the PA system kept repeating. I never want to hear any version of that song again.

    And I wholeheartedly agree with people's opinions on Paul's song. Horrible.

    you know, people can say what they want about JBJ, but the guy rules. imagine sayin' 'ya know, i want to make a christmas video and basically fondle CC throughout the whole damn thing' and then pull it off.

    the guy still could get more ass than a new orleans public toilet seat during marti gras. always has been a stud, always will be.

    That's because we're all in the Christmas/Hannukah mindset and not the New Year's Eve mindset :)

    Never heard "Christmas Shoes".

    But I agree with many of the selections here:
    - Sir Paul's song
    - Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer
    - Dominic the Donkey
    - Deck the Halls
    - We Wish You a Merry Christmas

    Consider yourself lucky.

    I went so far as to send an email to a radio station that played that song telling them everytime they play it I change the channel to their competitor. Then I mention I am an Arbitron Family.

    From Bad Santa ...

    Sue: I've always had a thing for Santa Claus. In case you didn't notice. It's like some deep-seeded childhood thing.
    Willie: So is my thing for tits.
