There are about a dozen Christmas songs that I enjoy listening to. I do NOT enjoy listening to those songs being played by little toy Santa Clauses banging on bells. I do NOT enjoy listening to those songs being played by electronic devices only a tenth as sophisticated as the old Nintendos. Therefore, 60% of the time I can't avoid hearing those songs, they're ruined. I also don't enjoy listening to modern pop artists making a remake of those timeless classics in an attempt at a cash grab - that wipes out another 35% for a total of making those songs annoying 95% of the time. Add to that, the rest of the Christmas music that, well, just plain sucks, and I only get to smile at hearing one of those familiar Christmas songs maybe that same 12 times during the entire 4 month long extended Christmas season.
