You aren't going to like me anymore. I wa...Uh oh. You aren't going to like me anymore. I was actually thinking about doing a post this week about the shoe song and how I literally tear up every time it comes on the radio. I was driving with the wee ones to a birthday party yesterday and it came on. I explained to Mister Man what was going on in the song and kept having to stop so I wouldn't burst into tears right then. Sad, I know.<BR/><BR/>And ummm I like the hippo song. It always makes me smile.<BR/><BR/>And there are other horrid songs out there... but I always switch the channel too fast to get stuck with them in my head or remember them. This year? I have FIVE stations of Christmas music to choose from!Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07803503583347758969noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8546346781211197873.post-21668416056173659582008-12-21T22:26:00.000-05:002008-12-21T22:26:00.000-05:00Great post!!!

I HATE that song. I do not get it.<BR/><BR/>Oh and at work they play Christmas songs non stop. I have grown to loathe Jessica Simpson. Her voice is worse than a cat puking up a hairball. She has taken a song I loved (baby it's cold outside) and brought it to where I want to puncture my ear drums every time it is played!!Simply AnonyMomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02451099553254296951noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8546346781211197873.post-887145229039018452008-12-21T14:00:00.000-05:002008-12-21T14:00:00.000-05:00I'm sorry, I have to disagree with Madonna's versi...I'm sorry, I have to disagree with Madonna's version of Santa Baby.

I couldn't agree more with all of the songs, including the Beach Boys whose Christmas songs I absolutely hate (although their other songs are marginally ok). I definitely have to add anything by Cyndi Lauper too, like Santa Baby. Yuck!<BR/><BR/>Oh, and I can't stand that George Michael song "Last Christmas." And of course that Christmas Shoes song.<BR/><BR/>And I'm probably the only person on earth who hates Josh Groban's voice. To me it sounds like a parody of "great" singing. Ok, everyone, feel free to blast me on that one.Kathleen W.https://www.blogger.com/profile/01565702382912247892noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8546346781211197873.post-71376375469602256842008-12-21T09:11:00.000-05:002008-12-21T09:11:00.000-05:00I only play The Carpenters at Christmas, so I avoi...I only play The Carpenters at Christmas, so I avoid all the other garbage :) Great post, BTW! <BR/><BR/>And yes, those were Krumkake. If you go to http://Mrs4444cooks.blogspot.com, you'll see a whole post about making them. Maybe your daughter would like to swap recipes?

I like the classic and traditional done in a modern way! I have been listening to Chris Rice the living room sessions which is just piano doing classic Christmas songs- WONDERFUL! I am normally not into that kind of music, but Christmas is about tradition for me :)RebeccaMomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07735265612705138097noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8546346781211197873.post-42468220060631510742008-12-21T08:42:00.000-05:002008-12-21T08:42:00.000-05:00Awwwww....I like the Hippo song....:(Awwwww....I like the Hippo song....:(Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8546346781211197873.post-48608839169297533042008-12-21T08:04:00.001-05:002008-12-21T08:04:00.001-05:00okay in the spirit of snarkiness - i vote for ANYT...okay in the spirit of snarkiness - i vote for ANYTHING by alvin and the chipmunks. yes, they're funny as cartoon characters and in small doses but when they open up their mouths to sing, i cover my ears. <BR/><BR/>and i have to confess that i think gramma got run over by a reindeer is one of the all time funniest songs ever but then i had a mean gramma and the thought of her getting run over by a reindeer really helped me cope with her in later years - when she got even meaner!!! she'd be mean and i'd just sit there and smile, imagining her getting run over by some reindeer... walking home from our house christmas eve... :)))Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02040674254150310726noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8546346781211197873.post-68680596719504740222008-12-21T08:04:00.000-05:002008-12-21T08:04:00.000-05:00You have pretty much covered them all, but I take ...You have pretty much covered them all, but I take exception to the Beach Boys....sorry I grew up in Southern Calif!
