Which do you prefer? The classics sung by the likes of Bing Crosby? Or newer stuff like Wham!’s Last Christmas?

Answer C: Neither.

 

Can't stand traditional schlocky Christmas music sung by Perry Como and the like.  "I'm dreaming of a white christmas" or "home for the holidays" and all that stuff.

 

I much prefer classical, traditional Christmas music.

 

Bach's Weihnachtsoratorium is a great place to start for those who want to broaden their horizons.

Jeebus!  I have avoided that McCartney abomination until now, but just seeing the link made my blood run cold.

Only the third Christmas I have known of its existence, but ‘Christmas Rapping’ by the Waitresses from back in the 80s is enjoyable.

There's only one form of music that's worse than Christmas music (old AND new), and that's modern/new Country. 

 

Go ahead, roast me.

 

How do you feel about the theme song from How The Grinch Stole Christmas???

it's another reason to despise him and degrade his talents if you were already of that ilk

 

radio stations have played them back to back, intro of "just like Penny Lane/Strawberry Field Forever and I Feel Fine/She's A Woman" we have a pair of Christmas tunes from MacLen!!!

The reason I clicked this thread was to post my revulsion with that song.

 

And I'll go on the record saying, The Harry Simone Chorale original Christmas is THE classic Christmas album.

sad to read Macca's song was released for Christmas 1979, so there is the possibility that John was inflicted by a listen to it...  :(

Generally not a fan of Christmas music, but a few years ago someone gave me The Jethro Tull Christmas Album and it's pretty good. If my wife requests Christmas music, that's what I put on.

 

 

Easily the best thing out there... it really is good.
