    I’m so glad I am in a position to not have to fucking hear Christmas music, some of the old ones are fine but dear fuck do stores and radio love playing the same 4 fucking songs. Also God Rest Ye Merry, Gentlemen is right good depending on version.

      If I hear ‘So This is Christmas’ by John Lennon one more time I’m going to lose it. It sounds so bad coming out of a PA speaker.

      Same 4 songs, performed by a dozen different singers. It drives me insane.

      Also, I personally hate when a singer decides they’re gonna perform their version of a song. I had an old music teacher that once said, " if you’re going to cover an famous song, it needs to be better than the original." So for someone to say they’re gonna cover Elvis’ Blue Christmas, or Earl Ravencroft’s performance of the Grinch song, are basically saying they’re better than Elvis or Earl Ravencroft. With how low effort these covers are, that is definitely not the case and I feel like they insult our intelligence by shitting on all these classic songs.
