Christmas songs.

Spent 10 minutes in Tesco and I'm absolutely sick of them already. I hate them.

Question is, do you really hate them? Or you doing the whole 'it's cool to hate them' thing

I used to tell people I hated Christmas songs when really I love them.

 

[something daft already!!]

I'm sick of Slade but also it now reminds of the episode of Dark Mirror where the bloke is trapped repeating the same day over and over after murdering someone and that song plays all the time.

I'd go postal if I had to work somewhere playing Christmas music all day. It would be worth the 20-30 years in jail.

Shop online then, assuming your current residence arrangements actually have an address

Lies, this is far better

Y'know i'd call that old, but then so was my link so its fair.

Plus neither is as old and over-done as the mainstream rolling out of slade and wham every damn year.

I can take them or leave them, not that fussed either way. Except for one song, I cannot stand the bloody Pogues, horrendous song, will protest loudly if it comes on or just leave.

I think I prefer the term classic to old in this case

Not a song but my favourite Christmas tune (only it wasn't originally meant for Christmas):

 

[ic1male]

There's only a few I can't be doing with - The Pogues and Kirsty MacColl being one of them - but since mid November, I've been switching over to Heart Extra Xmas when I get into bed and listening to Christmas tunes to get me to sleep. Works wonders until one comes on that I really like and start singing to. Then it's back to square one.

Yeah ok i'll give you that one

Try working in retail and having them pumped into your head for 8 hours a day, 5+ days a week for a couple of months. It's a form of torture and should be illegal!

Fifteen years on and I still have flashbacks.

Its not just retail, i have evil things to say about workplaces having radio going all the time. If you wanna let people listen to music on the job let em just use earphones

 

[snips86x]

I got in the car yesterday to go shopping and what do I hear? Mariah Carey's All I want for Christmas. It's the 1st of December! FIRST!!!! NOT 20TH!!!!

Frankly, it's too early for this ****!

The best Christmas songs album:

I also throw in "CKY - Santa's Coming" but don't know if I can link that here

Slade and Wizzard should be proscribed.

Retail workers should be given a mulligan for one murder each December, as long as that murder was committed within three hours of leaving their store, and there can be proof that Christmas music was playing that day.

Now, Christmas In Hollis on the other hand should be pumped into people's ears directly.
