    "do they know it's christmas"

    THESE lyrics. "Well tonight thank God it's them instead of you"


    REALLY? That's awful.

    That line always made me shake my head too. Seriously, what the ...

    Not that I have any real love for this song but you are misunderstanding that line. The point being made is that we frequently turn a blind eye to the suffering around us and are content with being thankful it isn't us or our loved ones suffering.
    I have other reasons that song rubs me the wrong way.

    This one gets on my nerves so much: "And there won't be snow in Africa this christmas time" Uh....as someone who was born in Africa, don't they know it's SUMMER there????? Seriously, my family celebrates the holiday with pool parties and barbeques around the lake.......It was 30C - which is about 86F yesterday my grandmother told me this morning.......LOL

    It's such a terrible song.....

    My Husband's worst song is Dominic the Donkey.......

    Feliz Navidad and The Christmas Shoes

    When I was little, I thought Feliz Navidad was "Police Love Your Dad". I didn't understand what that had to do with having a merry Christmas, but figured t wasn't my place to judge.

    I understand it perfectly. It's a painfully obvious and contrite throw-away line.

    What's that song about the two high school sweethearts meeting up in a store and then getting drunk in a car before she drives off? That one is right up there with Christmas Shoes.


    Yeah...that one! I HATE it! my mom used to LOVE it and I remember one time going to the grocery store with her and it came on the radio and we sat in the car while she listened/sang it...I love my mom but that was torture!

    Do you remember the name of it? I've got to find it on youtube. It is so dreadful and my husband does not believe me that it's a Christmas song.

    "Same Auld Lang Syne" -- Dan Fogelberg

    I don't think it's that bad.

    This song too. My brain melts and dribbles out my ears.

    Trans-Siberian Orchestra: Old City Bar.

    I HATE that song. It's so bad that it's now become a tradition in our house to listen to it and make fun of the guy singing.

    Baby it's cold outside

    YES! No matter who sings it...I hate this one.

    Anything that Mariah Carey, Beyonce, or Christina Aguilera butchers makes my "Worst Christmas songs" list, as well.

    I love this one! Louis Armstrong and Ella Fitzgerald...sublime.

    Good gravy. How did I miss that one? And it's autobiographical?! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Same_Old_Lang_Syne

    I don't know if it's his voice, or the lyrics, or what...it drives me crazy. My mother LOVES it.

    Sounds like our moms would be GREAT friends LOL!!! I cna not believe I forgot that it was Dan Fogleberg.....ugh!
    Its not THAT bad ......it's not a Christmas song.....they got drunk in the grocery store parking lot on Christmas Eve cuz she dumped her purse on the floor...what the heck does that have to do with Christmas LOL!



    I thought ya'll were talking about Christmas Wrapping by the waitresses
