i usually listen to 6music as the song selection isn't mainstream, but i'm now switching over as the christmas songs have started and they are getting on my tits.
I hate them all, luckily I've given up listening to the radio.. unfortunately my partner is WFH today and has Radio 1 on and all it seems to be in bloody christmas songs... I'm off out!
My colleague has decided the office needs some seasonal cheer so has some Christmas tunes on. I have my headphones on listening to some heavy drum and bass* to drown it out. Bah humbug 😆
*dBridge's Boiler Room mix for anyone remotely interested 😉
I'm not clicking on that video, in case it includes a xmas song... and no I don't hate xmas, just them playing the same ****en songs continuously looped for 30 days.. year after year
Have you tried hibernation? 🙂

I actually really like Silent Night. But that's about it.

I enjoyed the John Fahey version Tom Ravenscroft played over the weekend.
Anyway, we've got the Kindercore Records Christmas Sampler from years back playing in the office. So far no complaints.
I wish it could be christmas every day me
It's only just begun, too.
I mean it's only just beguuuuuuu uuuuuuu unnnnnhhhhhh
I used to despise all the 'classic' Christmas tunes, now I love them like a grizzled old wart that just won't go away
Is there a worse on than
listen to the "music"
Tesco have the noxious x**s noise wafting around. It's tha aural equivalent of the smell of raw sewage leaking from a broken drain. I got what I needed and left as quickly as I could. I don't know how much trade Tesco and their ilk lose as a result of pissing their customers off with the patronising noise, but it must add up to quite a sum.
I just walked into a shop to look for a pressie.
'Mistletoe & Wine' was seeping like some foul syrupy phlegm from the speakers, so I walked straight out.
And still they don't get the message...
I used to hate them and stuck headphones on but now in the autumn of life I admit I actually love em, give it 10-20 years and you too will be indoctrinated like me!
How old are you? 90?
Yeah yeah, everything's rubbish, boo hoo.
Cheer up, it's Christmas
and a Happy New Year

My daughter's English teacher (it's a Spanish school) introduced her to the delights of Slade yesterday, so had to listen to her singing that to me - repeatedly - in the car last night.

You're a bit of a twit, aren't you? 😆 (see, a lol)

I agree.
Not a patch on 'Carrie doesn't live here anymore' or 'Wired for sound'.
How about a Megadeath Christmas
I love Christmas music!
Even more so now I've been sucked into spotify, I particularly love the bad religion Christmas album [url= http://http://open.spotify.com/album/2XOL55WiocMAc6ryihttgq ]HERE[/url] for anyone interested.
Whenever I hear White Wine in the Sun I always manage to get some dust in my eye. now idea how that happens..
This is probably my favourite Chrimbo song -
Complete with a certain well known R6Music DJ on vocals.

Radio 4, then...
At least most of the Chrimbo songs on 6 are decent ones, the girls in the response room next door have got a radio hanging against the steel dividing wall, and they got some shitty commercial station on, which is playing all the very worst Christmas songs, all the time. I've got my little Pure DAB radio turned up almost to distortion point to drown out the crappy noise.
RadMac played Karine Polwart's version of Slade's [i]Merry Christmas Everybody[/i], and it was lovely, never heard it before. Not heard [i]Fairytale Of New York[/i], yet, sadly.
If I have to listen to that awful excuse of a record from Leona Lewis one more time... It's what I hate about commercial radio stations, they play absolute rubbish from 'big' names because they're paid to, not because it's any good.
I actually enjoy most of the good Christmas songs, especially the older ones. But Leona needs shooting for that one. Hopeless 👿
Especially for CountZero (and because it just has to be posted)
Try working in a shop this time of year!! We get the same stuff over and over every day.
I'm even getting fed up of Kirsty and the Pogues 🙁

Enjoy 😀
Possibly the greatest Christmas song of all time.
I've often wondered if the Darkness' "Don't let the bells end" was a euphemism, but it seems it's treated as a "serious" Christmas song.
I am waiting for the first shop worker, subjected to a never ending loop of the same Christmas songs who finally snaps and goes batshit mental.
I would be tempted to take them to the European Court of Human Rights claiming it is torture and therefore illegal.
Hell the US Army uses it as such so it isn't too much of a jump.

Oh I don't really like Christmas musak much.
Just who thought " woopty doo hickory dock don't forget to hasn't up your sock" would be acceptable lyrics?
They are honestly taking the piss.
Andy Williams... **** Off.

When I worked for Halfords as a deputy manager many moons ago I actually received a proper verbal warning from my area manager when the. Christmas music CD got mysteriously and irretrievably damaged one year.
I had been moaning about how much I hated it though, I think one of the middle aged divorcee cashiers grassed me up, the younger staff were happy I'd done it. I mean, weeks of constant looping Christmas songs for hours a day is enough to drive you mental....
My copy of Phil Spector's Christmas Album gets a good playing every year. Can't beat it.
Spot the footballer time too as a diversion.
