Which Christmas songs known or unknown do you detest?
I'd vote for this "remix" of Slade's "Merry Christmas Everyone" from 1998 by dance duo Flush. I could understand if it was the whole song in a dance mix, but it's very disjointed with Slade's bit untouched left alone in the chorus!

Another one I go for is "Mary's Boy Child" by Boney M - That's the Katie Price of cheap Christmas songs.

I Wish It Could Be Christmas Everyday - Wizzard
All I Want For Christmas Is You - Mariah Carey
Happy Xmas (War Is Over) - John Lennon
I Believe In Father Christmas - Greg Lake
White Christmas - Bing Crosby (so old-fashioned now)
Stop The Cavalry - Jona Lewie
Step Into Christmas - Elton John
That one by The Darkness
Anything by Cliff Richard (epitome of naff)
Anything by Michael Buble (his Christmas album)
Anything on Justin Bieber's Christmas album
Any version of Do They Know It's Christmas that isn't the original
I know it's not a Christmas song but Stay Another Day - East 17 is pretty bad.
Merry Christmas Everyone was by Shakin' Stevens. Slade did Merry Christmas Everybody.
No those songs are the best Slade is good and so is Wizzard and so is Elton John and so is Jona Lewie. Do any of your family like the ones you hate?
Yep I agree.
You've basically listed some of the most classic and loved Christmas songs?
Well mum likes Saviours Day by Cliff Richard (the instrumental) and I think she doesn't mind the John Lennon one too much. She hates the rest though. Dad doesn't really care much for them.
I got mixed up
What about your cousins and brothers and sisters and grandparents and your friends do they like Slade, Wizzard and all the others you listed? Even though you don't like them do they get you in the mood for Christmas?
But does Slade, Wizzard, John Lewie, Yoko and John, Band Aid and the others get you in the mood for Christmas?
I don't have any brothers, sisters or grandparents and I rarely talk to my cousins. Never really asked my friends what they thought of those songs, but at the college end of exams parties they all start dancing to them. I suspect a lot of them are drunk by then though Well no not really, especially when they are played over and over and over and over...
Oh I like that song alright. In fact I have the Boney M Christmas Party album and it's really good.
You don't like Christmas, we get it :rolleyes:
I don't mind Christmas as long as the build up begins in December and not September and I don't have to be subjected to those songs hundreds of times before the actual event.
But all the lively ones that you listed are the best you must like them when its the day before Christmas? Do you like Last Christmas and Fairytale Of New York? Does your mum like Band Aid's Christmas song?
Actually no. Last Christmas and Fairytale of New York are fine as long as I don't have to hear them too much. And as for the Band Aid one the only version worth listening to is the original. The newer versions are crap.
But didnt your granny always tell you, that the old songs are the best?
"Santa Baby"
"All I Want For Christmas Is You" (the Vince Vance & the Valiants song)
God bless you and her always!!!
Holly (a day one fan of LeAnn)
I think quite the opposite. Every Christmas song that isn't Fairytale of New York is awful to me.
Do you get lonely at all or is it just 'another day' to you
