I've tweaked it enough that it is very seldom that it tries to play a religious song.

Thanks! That must have taken quite a bit of tweaking.

Precisely. Christmas still sucks in my book though, fir reasons largely unrelated to Jesus, music or bushes and lights and kids and all the other stuff filling the streets.

I'm good until I hear, "Dominic, the Christmas Donkey". That sends me into convulsions. Not the good kind. As does any C&W Christmas song, especially the ones in which the so-called songwriter uses masses amounts of melodrama to try and create a tearjerker. They just come off as totally lame.

LOL!
And then you have the nauseating vocals by F. Sinatra and B. Crosby!

The most nauseous Christmas song is Wham's "Last Christmas". Makes me want to puke or kill someone.

I actually quite like that, not as a Christmas song, but in it's own right. Having said that, I love everything about the 80s, they took themselves so seriously.

I can't bear the jingly Christmas rubbish that is normally played, but a spot of Choral Evensong I find very relaxing.

I hate mainstream Christmas music other than Trans Siberian Orchestra. Indie Christmas music is strangely appealing.

Which came first: this video or the Family Guy scene?

This one. I saw that clip many a year ago and it still warms the cockles of my heart everytime I watch it.

The family guy one is mighty amusing as well though.

Good stuff.  (I'm not a fan of Christmas music.  At all.)

This one is good, especially because it's narrated rather than sung, and ripped up pretty thoroughly.  I can't think of a nicer song to be given this treatment. :)

People, where is your Christmas spirit?

Oh, who am I kidding? Christmas sucks. Except for the fact that I get stuff.
