And sll copies of Jingle Bells should be shot into space.
Wait; that might make the Aliens mad.
Drop 'em into a Volcano.

Did you know that Jingle Bells was not intended to be a Christmas song?

I live way back in the hills, in a deep valley in the Ozarks. I tell visitors, "When in doubt, go downhill. When your CD begins playing 'The Ride of the Valkyries' You know you're on the right road."

My wife hates when I WATCH the Germanic opera, "That NAZI music!"

Everything is political nowadays. One of my favorite groups is the 2nd South Carolina String Band. When people criticize my choice I just point out that Sergeant Richard Kirkland was the Angel of Marye's Heights who brought water to the Union wounded at Fredericksburg was a member of the 2nd South Carolina and the whole regiment helped him by forming a human change to fill canteens and pass them forward.

All a matter of personal taste~ which really shouldn't matter at all to anyone else, and doesn't mean a thing at all.

Personally, the acoustic 12 string lead intro to the O/P's song is still interesting, and actually has roots in real classical music.
That being said, for the rest of the song, not really so much, which like I said above, is purely a matter of personal taste.

I worked in a place for over three decades where the christmas music would start piping in at mid november. Some of it got to be a real grind.
There's a few exceptions though- Old Bing's White Christmas was at least tolerable, and I still feel no need to shut it out. Likewise the choir version of Hark! the Herald angels Sing. All of which may be a simple matter of reverting to childhood, but who cares anyways...

agreed on the personal taste,

to each his/her own, I am sure all have a song that when played on the radio they instinctively reach over and change the channel,,


for about 20 yrs or so I was in a department that we could play a radio, (out of the public, in a backroom or closed off area) so we did, (had to hide it now and again from the big wheels


so I only had to listen to the musak christmas stuff when I was on the sales floor,


learned to tune most of it out when i became store management and had to be on the floor ,,
