Favorite/least favorite Christmas song

[electra225]

My favorite would be a tie. "An Old Christmas Card" made most popular by Jim Reeves, and "C-H-R-I-S-T-M-A-S" also recorded by Jim Reeves. It was a favorite of Mrs Landis, my piano teacher and one I learned to play for the family. Jake Hess recorded a good version of this song on a Gaither Gospel series Christmas record I have.

My least favorite is "The Twelve Days Of Christmas " and "Holly Jolly Christmas".

Too many favorites to list, but super-fave probably Perry Como's "There's no Place like Home for the Holidays", and many other Como renditions of the old warhorse standards.

Worst: specifically Micheal Jackson's "Santa Clause is Coming to Town"... it's like fingernails on a chalkboard. Yeeesh!
So annoying I think I Heart Radio Classic Christmas stopped playing it, at least so far this year I haven't heard it - thankfully.

Worst: generically: "The 12 Days of Christmas" by anyone!... Jeezum, enough already!

KEZ played Kelly Clarkson singing "O Holy Night" the other day on the way home. OMG.......

Kelly Clarkson may be something, but she is NOT a singer........

And you're absolutely right. It's hard to beat Perry Como singing anything.

as a kid we always got out the Sing with Mitch Christmas album with the words so we could sing along ... I don't know why , but I am also fond of the Ray Conniff Christmas song ... count your blessings instead of sheep... I have it on album, radio stations seem to play that one a lot...a Charlie brown Christmas album by Vince Guaraldia trio is also one of my favorites a little jazz mixed in...

I can remember the Vienna Boys Choir singing Little Drummer Boy when I was in grade school. I thought it was fantastic.

There's not very many Christmas songs that I don't like. Even the silly ones.
