Call me Scrooge....

But Christmas music all day ALREADY??? I love Christmas music but when they play it over the radio ALL day so early before Christmas - it really burns me out!

I mean there are only so many different rendentions of the same songs...........ok vent over. Sorry.

I do love Christmas music but one station here plays John Lennon's "So this is Christmas" (I don't even know if that's the name of it) at least 15x daily. Now when I hear it, it makes me cringe!

I never to listen to christmas music on the radio. I play the CD's I like when I bake cookies or wrap presents and that is about it. otherwise it wouldnt feel as special to me.

This is me too Rebecca! It definitely takes the specialness out of it when I have to listen to it so much. Where I work - they have the radio over our overhead speakers - so I'm imprisoned to having to listen to it for 8 hours a day!

Ugh. Now that you mention it I remember jobs where that was the case and feeling like I would go nuts after a day or so of listening to it all day long!

ack. i hear ya. and when xmas starts BEFORE thanksgiving makes me nuts. i just listen to my own cds and call it a day.

I like to play Christmas music on the t.v. or Pandora while I am decorating, or cleaning maybe, but i don't listen to it on the radio either.

When I was in high school, my best friend had the rule :No Xmas music until December 1st.
I've always stuck to it and so far, I haven't heard any on the radio yet (but I only listen to the radio when I'm in the van, which isn't that often.)

I hear ya Renee .... when I listen to the radio I want to a hear variety .... and for sure not Christmas music all day!!

Yikes! I guess I'm the odd duck in the group!
I started listening to Christmas music in November when I was working on some Christmas pages and have had it going ever since. It's on my iTunes at home, cd's in the car and anywhere else I can find it! Did I say it's my most favorite time of the year???

At church yesterday, we sang a few Christmas songs (it was the first Sunday of Advent).
It was really nice and I was tempted to get out my Christmas CDs/playlists a couple of days early.

Two of the presets on my van radio are playing Christmas music nonstop and it started a couple weeks ago. It seems to start earlier and earlier every year. The song I hear all the time that makes me cringe is Paul McCartney's "A Wonderful Christmas Time". It gets trapped in my head and I hear it over and over!

I supposed it would be unprofessional for you to wear earplugs to work!

That's probably my least favourite, too.
Of course, now it's in my head. Thanks.

Oh, Leigh, I'm sorry!

I can't get it out of my head either, last night it was bugging me! And now that I came and read this post, it's really not helping! Let's go put a catchy song we like on the stereo and get rid of it once and for all!

LOL - Lori - I don't like that song much either! And Sheri - I LOVE Christmas music but having to listen to it 8 hours a day NONSTOP is a little much. Now if they would start doing that a couple weeks before Christmas - I can handle that. By then I will excited to hear it - not burned out.

Don't tell my best friend from high school, but I listened to one of the Christmas CDs on my playlist last night while I scrapbooked.
It was Chris Tomlin -- Glory in the Highest. (http://www.christomlin.com/home.php) I got it last year and love it!
