Top 10 Most Annoying Christmas Songs (part 2)

Here are my top five most annoying Christmas songs of all time...

5) "Celebrate Me Home" (Kenny Loggins) – Kenny should stick to movie soundtracks. This song is sappy, whiny, and the incessant repetition of the final phrase, which accounts for nearly half the running time of the song, makes this song excruciating to listen to.
4) "Dominick The Donkey" (does it matter?) – A ridiculous song with no business being part of the Christmas season, yet it seems like it’s on the radio every time I turn it on.
3) "Another Old Lang Syne" (Dan Folgerberg) – perhaps the most depressing seasonal song (is it even a Christmas Song?) ever recorded. Two old acquaintances happen upon each other, booze it up in a car, complain about their lives, and then leave each other to their own continued loneliness. This song makes Debbie Downer seem like a cheery, hopeful person.
2) "Last Christmas" (Wham) – This is, perhaps, one of the most absurd Christmas songs ever conceived. “Last Christmas, I gave you my heart. But the very next day you gave it away. This year, to save me from tears, I’ll give it to someone special.” So are we to assume that the giver did not consider the original recipient special, but was so desperate to give their heart away that they just picked someone at random to give their heart away to? Annoying on so many different levels.

And, without further ado...

1) "The Christmas Shoes" (NewSong) - When this song was first released, I remember sitting in the car, thanking God for the reminder of His blessings in my life. I remember being emotionally affected by the lyrics. Since then, after a contemptible amount of airplay, and intrusion into all forms of mass media (including a book and TV movie staring Rob Lowe?!?!), the song serves as a reminder of how a good song can be destroyed by pop culture. I hate including this song here, because I really like NewSong, but this song has just been beaten to death and needs to be retired.

Obviously, there are a number of other songs that could have easily made this list ("I Wanna Hippopotamus For Christmas" or anything by Celine Dion immediately comes to mind), but I had to draw the line somewhere
