Argh--Awful Christmas Song

[Banana]

There've been bad Christmas songs like White Christmas and Rudolph, but the new ones are even worse!

Title: The Christmas Shoes
Singer: NewSong
Sample Lyrics:

Sir, I want to buy these shoes for my Mama, 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 would make her smile
And I want her to look beautiful if Mama meets Jesus tonight

I demand more horrible violence in my Christmas songs!

Guess I'll just have to listen to the old stuff.

<singing>Grandma got runover by a reindeer, coming home for our house Christmas eve...</singing>

Rudolph and White Christmas are "bad" Christmas songs? Those are classics. Bad songs are that crap that Bandaid 2004 released this year.

OK, White Christmas is acceptable, but definitely not Rudolph because it's a stupid story about popularity. So the other reindeer now like Rudolph because Santa promoted him? Bad song for kids.

No. You missed the point. Rudolph is a story about accepting differences and showing that everyone has worth... they just need to discover it.

Samply Lyrics:

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 would make her smile
And I want her to look beautiful if Mama meets Jesus tonight

That's a country song, isn't it?

yeah, this is a "Big Hit" on radio stations around here... its a sad, SAD song and i hate it. i mean, if you listen to the rest of it, the singer is stating that this little kid makes him realize how lucky he is and what christmas should be about, but for some reason, i dont like this song

That's because it has the subtlety of a sledgehammer. I have to admit though, that I was LOL when I first heard the song because of
-The way the country singer sounds
-I keep thinking the kid is scamming the singer. I mean, the type of shoes isn't described, so it could be a pair of size 12 Nikes for all we know.

What's the title of the song?

A Kevorkian Christmas ?

Actually this is a Christian song and it is very sad but a great reminder of what the TRUE meaning of Christmas is!
