Christmas Music: Love or Hate?

I loathe Christmas music. I don't like to hear it on December 25th, and I sure as hell don't like to hear it on November 25th. Something about it really irks me, but I'm not sure what.

How do you feel about Christmas music?

Considering stores and radio stations have been spuratically playing it since that day after halloween, I dislike it... quite a bit.. But, im not going to cry about it if someone else enjoys it...
I'll grin and bear it, afterward go home and blair some tunes I like...
during this time of the year its Motley Crue and Kid Rock...

Its refreshing the first 5-10 times, from 10 to maybe 15 times it gets annoying. More than 15 times or so, I turn it off as almost all stations do Christmas music about this time of year.

I worked retail sales for awhile in college. Hours upon hours of repeat Christmas music playlists.

Sir I wanna buy these shoes for my Momma please
It's Christmas Eve and these shoes are just her size
Could you hurry Sir?
Daddy says there's not much time
You see, she's been sick for quite a while
And I know these shoes will make her smile
And I want her to look beautiful
If Momma meets Jesus, tonight.


Perfect example of the kind of Christmas music I hate. I like traditional Christmas music, Trans Siberian Orchestra is pretty good too, but it needs to be about two weeks before Christmas before I listen to it.

Depends on how and who is playing it. Most Xmas music is pretty lame, 'cept for maybe a well done Silent Night. But if it's being performed by Mannheim Steamroller then it's pretty cool. As mentioned, Trans Siberian Orchestra ain't bad either.

We have a couple of Philly rock stations that stay true to their music, which is awesome during this time of year.
