Christmas music

Our XM has pretty much been on Christmas music all month...

has there been ANY memorable Christmas song written since I was in diapers????? and, even tho Sinatra would probably be a Trumper, these days (sorry to go AMT), that dude could fucking sing. Him and Nat and Lou and Perry and Mel....hell, even Deano.
If I had known then what I know now...

    Didn’t Bowie do Little Drummer Boy with someone...Bing, maybe?

    I love Elvis’ Christmas music. And Chuck. 

    Run, run, Rudolph!

    Tom Waits wrote the greatest Christmas song of all time.

    War is Over is a’ight....but it doesn’t give you the Christmas feeling of “the classics.”

    Not the same as “the classics.”

    Mariah Carey - All I Want For Christmas Is You

    That one is pretty memorable. Granted, to me it's way overplayed and makes me want to throat punch people when I hear it.

    Is “Fairytale” out of the running because of offensive language and subject matter? Because that’s a goddamn classic.

    Lol. Yeah, I agree with you about her. I don't know if she did that song or not. I only know the one I mentioned because the dude that plays Christmas music at work plays the one I mentioned at least once an hour. Drives me crazy.
