Rabs Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 So I was about to write a topic and have a moan about xmas TV adverts that have already started and how annoying they are... But I decided it would be more fun to join in as its unavoidable lol we will be bombarded with it if we want to or not so we may as well have fun with it.. So whats your best (if there is such a thing) and worst (loads of them) xmas tunes. They dont have to be rock, but they are usualy at least more fun :) Probably the most overplayed, but common its a classic :) worst This is just everything corney. I know its meant to be but this is just too much lol (is it even possible to write a non corney xmas tune?) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y1J2UoiHMXE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

milod Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 Here's the real classic "modern" Christmas song. Torme and Judy Garland have the most views on Youtube. Torme wrote it when he was a teen, btw, before "Rock" as we generally admit is real "Rock" was invented. It's not even that hard to figure a solo fingerstyle arrangement. m Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeff-7 Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 I don't see how anyone who works retail can like Christmas music after a season or two. November 1st thru December 31st, nothing but Christmas tunes. McCartney's Simply Have A Wonderful Christmas Time gets particularly grating on the nerves after the 6th time in rotation for the day.

DCDetector Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 Every year I do a Christmas song and add it to my collection. This year I'm working on Jingle Bells. Did White Christmas last year and Silent Night the year before. All of them are on my in progress site. In Progress Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
