Personally, I love it and have wonderful memories of it growing up... everything from Perry Como and Nat King Cole to Alvin and the Chipmunks...

we started early this year... my parents got my wife and I an old, very hard to find record for our Anniversary... it's our all time favorite Christmas album... by a talented woman named Danniebelle, called He Is King...

So what's your take? I know some people love it, some hate it, and others could care less...

Personally, I tolerate it for a week or two and then the hate starts to set in. Except for Zooey Deschanel in the shower....I can tolerate that repeatedly

+1 Zooey has the pipes.

And I'll ad the soundtrack of A Charlie Brown Christmas by Vince Guaraldi.

Christmas music was much better back when I was a kid.

Back then, they played it during CHRISTMAS time.

Red Skeleton: the Littleist Christmas Tree.

Not music, but we'd put the record on the old console stereo and listen from start to finish.

Once I had kids (2008) I can now tolerate it. High school and college I worked retail jobs so I despised it and it actually ruined the holidays for me. That was the past but I just have one rule and that is to wait until Thanksgiving is over with before we listen or decorate for Christmas.

Every time I hear Bruce Springsteen talking at the beginning of Santa Clause Is Coming To Town, I think to myself, "holy crap, I guess it is possible to sound dumber than Keanu Reeves"...
