Can we talk about Christmas music (Again probably)

[Deleted]

Because I need to know why even Taylor Swift's Christmas songs are the whining, mewling about boys variety.

I'm surprised she isn't singing Blue Christmas for fuck's sake. But of course, she has to cover Last Christmas, which, I mean Dear Swifty, George Michael, and everyone else, perhaps if you'd give it to someone special LAST FUCKING YEAR, you wouldn't have to find some new person. JUST SAYIN'

Secondly, I'm tired of the Little Drummer Boy. A child shivers in the cold so I know what we'll do, we're bring him bricks of metals that hold cold instead of idk, blankets or something. I hate that song.

Lastly, there is some kind of cruelty in forcing store employees to listen to "It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year" during a dinner rush when people are being shitbags to their server because they spent all day Christmas shopping and/or driving. It's dickish.

No. Text me at Chrsitmas is the most horrible song ever. EVER.

This exists?

[josieposy]

This is one reason I was okay working at Macy's on the merchandising shift. They played decent stuff. I got to listen to the Charlie Brown Christmas soundtrack, Jackson 5 Christmas songs, and older classics while I worked.

I'm hoping this is a typo due to your being on your lady glass of wine.

This holiday
You'll be far away
And I'll be all alone
So please remember
This December
To fully charge your phone
And

Text me Merry Christmas
Let me know you care
Just a word or two
Of text from you
Will remind me you're still there
You don't have to add much to it
One smiley face will do
Baby text me Merry Christmas
Cause I'm missing kissing you

[SNC:]
Text me Merry Christmas
Make my holiday complete
Though you're far from me
Say you'll brb
That's a text I'll never delete
Choose just the right emoji
One that makes me lol
And if you text me something naughty
I promise I won't tell

[Kristen & SNC:]
I don't care if you spell things right
I just wanna hear from you tonight
Stroke those keys with your delicate touch
And type those little words that mean so much!

[SNC:] Hi
[Kristen:] Hey
[SNC:] How are you
[Kristen:] OK
[SNC:] Miss you
[Kristen:] Miss you too
[SNC:] Xmas sucks without you
[Kristen:] I know LOL
[SNC:] Love you
[Kristen:] Love you too
[SNC:] K thanks bye

[Kristen & SNC:]
A Facebook message isn't quite as sweet

[Kristen:]
I need more from @you than just a tweet

[SNC:]
A snap on Snapchat doesn't last

[Kristen & SNC:]
And voicemail? That's from Christmas past

Text me Merry Christmas
Send a selfie too
If you do, I'll go
'Neath the mistletoe
And pretend my screen is you
Show me that you love me
Text xo to kiss and hug me
I'll be right here waiting
For my pants to start vibrating
Baby, text me Merry Christmas
And I will text you too
This Christmas
It's the least that we can do

Merry Christmas!

[WOT?*]

I just ordered Dr. Demento's Christmas Carols the other day (and this thread reminded me so I went back and ordered Bob Rivers Twisted Christmas as well). It should be in with the stuff that came in yesterday or is coming today. I am looking forward to Christmas carols this year.

Normally I hate Christmas music, and Bob Rivers is the only one I can handle.
Although, I was at the commissary on base yesterday, and they were playing the music from Charlie Brown, and I didn't hate it.

For you @helenabonhamcarter and Mrs.Rad888

[obladi]

This is an appropriate thread to ask a question that comes up every year (but it is killing me I can't remember despite that). What is the "rapey" Xmas carol? It is an old one but if you listen to the lyrics it appears to be about
a guy getting a girl to pass out at his house?

[ttt]

I can't believe nobody has added Do They Know It's Christmas to the list of death penalty eligible Christmas music offenses.

Kristen? As in Chenoweth? Is her Broadway Star money all dried up and she'll do any shitty song someone gives her? If MH is gone for Christmas and he has the nerve to just text me a "Merry Christmas"... I don't even want to think about how mad I would be.

I heard that texting song as I was driving home from work yesterday. I thought it was a commercial jingle, until it went on for over a minutes and I realized it was a real song.

I live near a high school and there were some students walking home as I was listening to this song. I may have mumbled under my breath, "This is all YOUR fault!"

Michael Buble is my favorite of the recent Christmas albums. That dude made me like Feliz Navidad. I mean that's a real Christmas miracle right there.

I am sending this comment to my mom. She took an extra job as a barista in a Target Starbucks so she will absolutely appreciate this.

i hope this means it's a satire or my happy thoughts about KB are about to go far, far away.

#1 Text Me Merry Christmas is hysterical. What are you haters talking about? Straight No Chaser have a couple of funny songs on that album

#2 Pentatonix Christmas album is great. I love them and I want to hear nothing negative.

#3 "This Christmas" is one of the best Christmas songs ever. I will sing the shit of that song in the car, ok?

#4 Nothing, NOTHING, is worse than a CD full of Children's versions of Christmas songs. All those jingling of bells and Dora-like voices make me stabby.

#5 Taylor Swift did a Christmas album? I need Taylor Swift to go on hiatus and take Lorde, GaGa, the Kardashians and the Victoria Secret Angels with her because I'm tired of reading about all of these folks every damn day on my newsfeed.

#6 Regardless of CEP, I still like Baby, It's Cold Outside, but I was a known tease in my 20's so...BOOM!

Can I get into a 3-way on this?

That is probably sacrilegious given it is a Christmas song.

But I loved that lyric when we were dirt poor and sometimes I wish my husband would just make me something for Christmas. Just do a little craft, sing me a little jingle, do a juggling act (he juggles already). Do something simple. I can buy shit for myself. Do something that is just full of simplicity and love. Scrub the toilets. :-)

Hmmm, so you would NOT like to be one of the elderly at the nursing home my girl scouts and I are going to visit while caroling?

[noeliav]

I Want a Hippopotamus for Christmas (the non-Leann Rimes version) is the best Christmas song.

DD cried in the car yesterday because The Little Drummer Boy wouldn't repeat on the radio.

I enlightened DH and my sister about Baby It's Cold Outside during the NBC tree lighting show. While they were surprised, neither argued with me about it, so win.

[Skyesthelimit1212]

I thankfully have never heard the Text Me Merry Christmas, and Dominic The Donkey is the worst Christmas song EVER!, Hands down, true story!
