Christmas songs you hate?

Admit it, even for those of us who love Christmas music, there's always that one song that comes up on a playlist or while out shopping that grinds our gears, even if it's just a subpar cover version. And there's usually one that everyone seems to love except you. What are your worst offenders? Mine are:

The Waitresses - Christmas Wrapping (most obnoxious production and it just sounds like a consumerist anthem made to be played in shops)

Slade - Merry Xmas Everybody (most depressing sounding Christmas song ever)

Mariah Carey feat. Jennifer Hudson & Ariana Grande - Oh Santa! (the incessant clapping like a cheerleader chant and the lyrics are maximum cheese)

Kelly Clarkson - Wrapped In Red (great singer but she takes it way too far here and her voice is like nails on a chalkboard)

Ariana Grande - Santa Tell Me (just can't vibe with super modern Christmas songs)

What are yours?

I don't really hate any of them for overplaying reasons (I NEVER LEAVE MY HOUSE :brat:), but there are some that I can't stand because of... how they are I guess.

That one that goes "must be santa, must be santa, must be santa" song. I don't even know what it's called or how it actually goes, but we had to sing it in music class in elementarily school and since we had no idea what we were doing (or how to read sheet music I guess?), we sang it in the weirdest monotone chanting, like a brainwashed cult. All I remember it MUST BE SANTA MUST BE SANTA MUST BE SANTA.

(I just listened to a version of Must Be Santa and it's SO MUCH WORSE than I thought it would be. Wow. Like wow.)

And also the christmas shoes song about the little boy wanting shoes for his terminally ill mom? Like I get it, but come on man why :fatcat::messga: (quick edit: i've never heard this one and i refuse to listen to it)

OMG agreed on Mariah/Ariana/Jennifer - haaaaaaaaaaate that song.  
 

Kelly’s Wrapped in Red stresses me out, and her unnecessary obligatory screaming IS nails to chalkboard. 
 

HOWEVER, totally disagree re Ariana’s Santa Tell Me.  This has quickly moved into my Christmas faves over the last few years.  I think we’ll be hearing it as a classic for decades to come.

The Twelve Days of Christmas is by far the most obnoxious. :jase:

I love all the classics, they remind me of a better time. No interest in most new Christmas songs but can tolerate Kelly and Ariana's.

I'm not a fan of whichever version of Nat King Cole - The Christmas Song plays on the radio... So dreary! 

And Driving Home For Christmas... Clear your throat
