32. It's more songs that I'm "sick of" than "dislike"

Dec 2014

I'm sick of hearing:

Blue Christmas
Rockin Around the Christmas Tree
The "My Christmas Wish" song that came out last year
Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer
Dominic the Christmas Donkey
Manheim Steamroller's Deck the Halls

I really like:
Vanessa Williams "Do You Hear What I Hear"
Judy Garland's "Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas"
Straight No Chaser's "12 Days of Christmas"
Jimmy Buffett's "Merry Christmas, Alabama"
David Foster's. "Carol of the Bells"
Ertha Kitt's "Santa Baby"
... and unlike some in this thread, I like the Vienna Boys Choir's "Little Drummer Boy."
