Holiday Songs Update - Worst of the Worst, and honorable mention

Bored during finals again... naturally... so in honor of our earlier post, Smurftastic presents the 5 worst Holiday songs of all time, and honorable mention for the greatest holiday songs.

First... the worst of the worst, in no particular order. What gets you to be the worst? General suckiness, ridiculousness that is not amusing, cheesiness, and the ability to get stuck in my head when I don't want you there. Feel free to leave your comments about songs that drive you nuts!

The 5 Worst Holiday Songs of All Time:
  • Love on Layaway - Gloria Estefan
  • The Little Drummer Boy - Anyone (I have the WEAKEST of tolerances for the Bowie/Crosby version... very weak... but it's there)
  • Blue Christmas - Elvis
  • Away in a Manger - Mannheim Steamroller (pretty much anything by Mannheim fits here because, seriously, they are the Enya of Christmas music... sorry DJVic and brother)
  • Here Comes Santa Claus - Ludacris (featured in the credits for Fred Claus... just, well, awkward)

And now... for those of you who enjoyed the Greatest Holiday songs of all time... here are Smurftastic's honorable mentions:

  • All I Want for Christmas is a Real Good Tan - Kenny Chesney
  • Wizard Chess - Harry and the Potters
  • Angels We have Heard on High - Jesus (aka church music)
  • Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas - pretty much anyone
  • Feliz Navidad - remember on Sesame Street Christmas when Big Bird ice skated to that song? AWESOME
  • Run Rudolph, Run - Jimmy Buffett
