    "do they know it's christmas"

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


    REALLY? That's awful.

    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

    Well, it's winter above the equator. Also, I'm sitting there going... "Uhmmm. The mountains?"

    Okay - I'm not on MFP very often......I'm making it my resolution to track more often - at least 4 times a week......lol

    but: the worst Christmas song I know is Dominick the Donkey.....but not the version you hear on the radio - the version my dad sings......he does the "HeeHaw" noise like a asthmatic donkey that's being branded with a cattle prod......it's absolutely brutal!!! And to top it off, he plays it on repeat for hours - simply because he knows it bugs me!!!!

    I Want a Hippopotamus for Christmas drives me up the wall - makes me want to light Xmas trees on fire whilst smashing presents and ruin every child's xmas morning.

    "I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus." Really. I HATE this song. I especially hate it by the Jackson 5.
    and
    That stupid "Mamacita Donde Esta Santa Claus?" thing. That **** is just unacceptable.

    I am with you on the mommy kissing santa clause. I especially also hate the Jackson 5 version. It is so stupid because in my mind it kind of makes christmas about adults kissing and telling on mom (very strange stuff for kids to be thinkign about) and i hate it. so does "Santa Baby" which I think is the one I hate the most! Santa Baby makes it all about gifts and material things and being all cute and sexy. not what christmas is about! awful!

    I HATE the Pogues song (with Kirsty McC) and, Band Aid! Someone rip my ears off and superglue the holes they've left behind so I don't have to listen to that crap, arghhhh! And... breathe lol

    On a brighter note, I really like Let It Snow and the Mariah Carey one, All I Want For Christmas!!!!! :)

    Whatever that song is that says "last christmas, i gave you my heart and the very next day, you threw it away..." or whatever. EVERY version of that song by ANY artist is the bane of my existence!! It's awful! And I cringe when I hear "Mister Santa"

    Elvis or Porky Pig singing "Blue Christmas." Once I hear it, my Christmas spirit goes in the toilet for the rest of the year.

    I hate this one too...

    When I was a kid, my folks had a Reader's Digest Collection (yeah, we were hip) recording of an unnamed ensemble singing that song, slowed down and very... melancholy. It had the same feel as "I'll be home for Christmas." It was a pretty, moving song and became one of my favorites. But yeah, I hate Elvis' singing it.

    Has anyone mentioned George Michaels "Last Christmas"?

    HATE THAT SONG-- The number one rule in choosing christmas songs for radio stations should be--Just because the word Christmas is in a song doesnt mean it is a frakking Christmas song.

    I certainly hope this is the ---- L A S T C H R I S T M A S--- I hear the song "Last (I am not a Christmas song!!!!) Christmas".


    Thanks I needed that.

    happy christmas!

    So I posted my response before reading the whole thread. YUP! WORST. SONG. EVER. Not even just the worst Christmas song, just the worst song in existence.

    You hate Fairytale of New York?! That's one of the only three Christmas songs I love!

    Fairytale of New York - The Pogues
    Father Christmas - The Kinks
    Christmas Card from a Hooker in Minneapolis - Tom Waits

    That's MY kind of Christmas music right there!

    Of course. I can see where someone wouldn't dig Shane Macgowan. I hate all Christmas music except the F'd up songs. I'm the weirdo, not you.
