As I was at home today I happened to speak with a relative in Australia. OK, it was early evening his time and early morning my time, but he happened to mention that – apart from having had a couple of G&Ts – he was listening to some cheesy Christmas tracks.
This, spookily, got me thinking. I do like some Chrismas songs – carols are good for example – but… and here’s where I think a Shitopedia entry is deserved, WTF is/are ‘Do they know it’s Christmas?’ or ‘Fairytale of New York’ about?! I find it highly unlikely that a muslim child in Somalia is going to understand the relevance of Christmas, and what has a random Irish song about a boat (at its most obvious) got to do with the festive season?
Then there’s Wham.
Oh, and Elton John.
’nuff said I think.
Christmas songs (but not carols!) – shite.
Happy Christmas and/or relevant festive occasion to one and all.
{edit – slapping myself for a superfluous apostrophe}

YES! Christmas songs are terrible. I was driving around on Christmas Eve and the radio stations refused to play anything sensible, reverting either to dreadful Christmas songs, or, even worse, chattering about last minute shopping.
