I avoid stations that play Christmas music.

Do you also avoid all public places from November 1st to January 5th?  It's fucking everywhere.

To be fair, there seems to have been a bit of a backlash against Last Christmas in recent years and it's not played quite as often over here at the moment.

I'm sure I'd heard the song before, but it's a forgettable tune and the title wouldn't have meant anything to me anyway.
To sleep, perchance to dream. But in that sleep of death, what dreams may come?

Yes.  Yes, I do.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Raz is right. -MadImmortalMan March of 2017

Does this qualify as Christmas song? Stop the Cavalry

I've come to enjoy Low's "Just Like Christmas". It even has mass potential.
