[...] Justin Gehring wrote an interesting post today onHere’s a quick excerptIt’s been Christmastime for quite a while now and so naturally I think we have all heard our fair share of Christmas music for the year.

That’s a pretty good argument, but at least they stuck mostly to the traditional melody…. FF5 didn’t… o_x

I must say that this is the absolute lowest of lows in Christmas music renditions…

I’ll agree, but since I dislike Christmas music in general (no radio from November 28 to January 3!), I’d be a bad one to comment . . .

Nat King Cole and others sang some of the "older favorites" of that time and it stuck with their rendition; everyone nowadays isn't as influential and jealous. I notice in some stores (including CB) play or make their own versions of any type of music to subliminally prod customers into a buying/spending mood. Its all about atmosphere and when when jingle bells is spammed fast it makes people think in the back of their head that "the holidays" are coming quick so they'd better buy something.

yeah fairly disappointed in them.. They canceled all their concerts not just in Ny and came out 2nd best anyway! The ones in New york were supposed to have a choir of 100 people from all over the state performing with them..This group must have felt let down big time since they had been practicing since the middle of October or something like that!

To add to that comment- you might not have heard, but they canceled all their concerts in NY because they were busy with some American Idol:Band Edition-like TV show. Dan's last blog post.. Merry Christmas!

Yeah that pretty much covers it. Although some butcherings can be quiet amusing, I’ll say that…

You just summed up everything that is wrong with Christmas music and why I absolutely detest 99% of it. Clay Aiken earned the status of "idiot" when he redid both "Mary Did You Know" and "All Is Well"- the only 2 Christmas songs that I enjoy. When I think of Mary Did You Know, I think of Mark Lowry. When I think of All Is Well, I think of Michael Crawford. I will never think of anyone else, and if anyone else even attempts to perform those songs to an audience of over 200, they will be shunned by me for life. Go ahead... try me. Dan's last blog post.. Merry Christmas!
