My favorite radio station started 24/7 Christmas songs at noon the day before Thanksgiving. They can’t even wait until the turkey is cold. I won’t be turning it on again until Dec. 26.
It’s not that the song is BAD (It’s actually pretty good!), it’s that it’s sung too often and in too many places! When it first came out it, it was awesome there was a good Christmas song that didn’t rely on the old tropes. If we had more of that, this wouldn’t be an issue. But the horse is not only dead and beaten, it was dug out of it’s grave, the bones are half-gone, and it’s STILL getting the BLEEP knocked out of it!
That reminds me of an old crime series from Hamburg (“Adelheid und ihre Mörder”). The Inspector used to fixate the culprits to the radiator in his office and let them listen to Adriano Celentano’s “Azzurro” for hours until they were ready to spill. Sometimes he forgot about the poor guys ;-)

I’d rather jump off a cliff than hear the same Christmas songs every time. I feel you.

During the seige of the Alamo, Santa Anna had El degüello, a bugle call signifying no quarter, played day and night to torture the defenders.

My least liked Christmas song is “Santa Claus is coming to town”, by Bruce Springsteen. Anyone else have one they don’t care for?

It would have been "Grandma got run over by a reindeer’ but the courts ruled that would be cruel and unusual punishment.

It looks like Mariah might be getting coal instead of a mink stole in her stocking for Christmas with a pending lawsuit on that song.
