Rate this Christmas song out of 10.


2/10. I'm not sure if I like it or hate it more as years go by. It still sucks though.

That's why I hate 80s music so much.

From the Harmontown podcast - comedian Jeff Davis calls it the shittiest Christmas song ever perpetrated on mankind. https://youtu.be/2ilxM7-m8S0?t=8

Although personally, it wouldn't even make my top 10 worst list. I'm more in the it's so bad it's good camp.

I can't remember which radio station ran the pole, but about 6 or 7 years ago it was voted the worst Christmas song of all time.

I just checked Wikipedia. Maybe this is the problem:

Personnel
Paul McCartney – vocals, keyboards, synthesizers, guitars, bass, drums, percussion, jingle bells, production

9/10. I like it.

I'm surprised this is getting high ratings.

People like different music.

10/10

I love the synth sounds, so cheesy and fun, so bad it's good.

reply

I really expected more people to hate this.

reply

1/10 for me also...I can't change the station fast enough whenever I hear this come on the radio! And I'm someone who loves The Beatles, Wings, and McCartney's solo music. No offense meant to those that like/love this song...it just doesn't do anything for me.

reply

It's those synths that do it for me.

reply

Yes...but I also don't like the robotic, "The children's choir sing their songs, Ding Dong...etc." I believe I read a long time ago that McCartney recorded this in July...it's just too unemotional for me, I think. For lyrics that say, "Simply having a wonderful Christmastime," it doesn't sound like he is!

Again, though, a lot of people do like this song and that's great. It just isn't for me.
