Poll: Favorite/Lease Favorite Christmas Carol/Song
Favorite: Wow, tough. I love BNL/Sarah McLachlin's "God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen/We Three Kings."
Least Favorite: That horrible, depressing Charlie Brown Christmas Special song. "Chriiiiiiiiiiistmas tiiime... is heeeere......" (*throws self off bridge*)
Re: Poll: Favorite/Lease Favorite Christmas Carol/Song
Favorite: Rockin Around the Christmas Tree by Brenda Lee
Least Favorite: Jingle Bells... just gets on my nerves because of the melody.
Favorite - Josh Groban's O Holy Night.
Least favorite - can I just pick one?? Probably Wham This Christmas. Closely followed by the Yoko Ono/John Lennon screeching children/War is Over song. Makes me lunge for the tuner buttons every single time. Out of tune children are only cute when they're your own and NOT on the radio.
Favorite- All I Want For Christmas Is You- Mariah Carey version...
Least- Christmas music in general makes me angry....
Favorite: I'm gonna have to go with Josh Groban's "O Holy Night" as well. Although, I love that song and do like most versions of it.
Least: I'm a total grinch and I hate a lot of Christmas music, so it's hard to decide. Anything with any sort of cheese factor has me covering my ears. I think the worst are "All I want for Christmas is my Two Front Teeth" and "I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus" though.
PS, I looooove the whole Charlie Brown Christmas album. I probably start playing it around October
Favorite: Pretty much any version of O Holy Night. Christmas Canon (Trans Sib. Orchestra).
Least Favorite: The Little Drummer boy (any artist). This Christmas (Wham).
Wonderful Christmas Time (Paul McCartney). Gag.
Favorite: Sleigh Ride and Baby, It's Cold Outside
Least Favorite: Silent Night and any of the screechy kid ones, like All I Want for Christmas is my Two Front Teeth. Cringe.

Favorites... Sorry, I couldn't pick one, I love some specific arrangements
"Christmas Eve Sarajevo" by TransSiberian Orchestra
"Welcome Christmas" from The Grinch
"Hark the Herald Angels Sing" by Jessica Simpson
"Let It Snow" by Gloria Estefan
Least Favorite...
"12 Days of Christmas" ... because it's so freaking long.
"Auld Lang Syne" ... I know it's not a Christmas Song, but it always comes right after and I HATE it.
Favorites: "Baby, It's Cold Outside" and "Christmas Eve Sarajevo" by TransSiberian Orchestra
Least Favorite: I feel like an awful person admitting that I can't stand this song, because I KNOW it's for a good cause and all...but I can't stand "Do They Know It's Christmas/Feed the World" ...the melody just bugs me
Faves:
"Santa Claus is coming on a trike" and "Mummers Christmas" lol, they are Newfie Christmas songs.
"Blue Christmas" Elvis version, O Come All ye Faithful is my favorite traditional carol.
Least Faves:
I also hate Auld Lang Syne, especially that dreadful Celtic Women version from Sex and the City movie, like why don't we all just go and slit our wrists.
War is over is pretty bad to. Deeeeepressing.
I have a lot of Christmas songs that I love... mostly the OLD hymn ones that haven't been made too cheesy with their modern renditions. I haven't chosen a favorite for this year yet.
I also have a lot that I dislike... but most of all I hate Grandma got run over by a reindeer. I want to throw a brick at the radio every time it comes on. Violent, I know.

For some absurd and unknown reason...my favorite is "Do They Know It's Christmas/Feed the World" haha. I saw your post and lol'd. My mom makes fun of me every year because I am like the only fan of the song. And EVERY year it has been voted the #1 worst Christmas song. I like to be different I guess haha
Favorites: Santa Baby (the original), Where are you Christmas (Faith Hill), Baby it's Cold Outside, and most all church hymns especially Silent Night, Oh Holy Night and What Child is This. OH....and the Hallelujah Chorus Sing Alongs they have at churches!
Least Favorites: The barking dogs Jingle Bells, and Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer.
