I love Christmas songs. I start listening the day after Halloween. Because of this, I definitely think I am in the know about the good, bad and ugly Christmas songs. Beware, your favorite song may be on my ugly list. . .
Songs I secretly love, and am a little embarrassed to love them so much
This Gift- 98 Degrees
It Must Have Been The Mistletoe
Santa Baby
Last Christmas (I Gave You My Heart)
Hey Santa- Carnie and Wendy Wilson
The Chipmunk Song (especially the Jaci Velasquez version)
Songs I Openly dislike, and it may be just the artist, not the song
Mary Did You Know? - Wynona Judd & Kenny Rogers
Just hate it
Christmas Shoes- Bob Carlisle
Too sappy for my cold, black heart
The Little Drummer Boy (only when it is sung. by anyone ever)
Mostly not enjoying the Davie Bowie version, but pretty much everytime I hear rum-pa-pa-pum I want to poke myself in the eye. You should know however, when it's done by an orchestra or any other instrumental version, I think it can be decent
Silent Night- Wilson Phillips
Boo. Stick to "Hey Santa".
O Holy Night- any time it's countrified
Why massacre such a lovely song by twanging it up?
Run Run Rudolph
Makes me feel frantic. I don't need any more of that in the Christmas season
* If you'd like a laugh, or just to get a little freaked out, look at the link on "Hey Santa" for the music video through youtube. Priceless.

Ok Lyt, I have to say, I may agree with you on some of those. My husband and I are making a worst of Christmas CD this year and some of those are on it!!
I have to agree with nearly everything. Especially about when you start listening to the music, and the comments about Santa Baby and The Little Drummer Boy. Miss you! Dax baby says hello.
I hate all the ones you hate, plus all the ones you secretly love...what does that make me?
Except I do love Run Run Rudolph.
A total hater. That's what it makes you.
Probably you just like regular mainstream Christmas music instead of my guilty freak show picks.
this is Will; you actually like the song "Last Christmas"? give me a break. it totally sucks. actually he LOVES it!!! (now this is emily!)
I can't listen to Santa Baby.
It gives me the retarded tingles.
But, it's okay that you like it.
I still like you.
But I'll never like that song. :)
so funny alicia! I am totally with you on all of those. I secretly(not so much anymore) LOVE santa baby and last christmas I gave you my heart. you need to add mariah carey's all I want for christmas is you, and then add to the ugly list simply having a wonderful christmas time by the beatles. ugh. little drummer boy reminds me of the office now.
I can't believe you are one of those people who start listening to Christmas songs so early (I'm typing this sarcastically by the way).
I use to secretly love Last Christmas too. I also dislike anything countrified.
Ok, scary to know that we both secretly love the same "secret" Christmas songs. I have to say that It Must Have Been The Mistletoe might be my all time favorite. Happy New Year!
