Christmas music is Good

I fucking LOVE Christmas music. It's 100% my shit. That being said I've been listening to Pentatonix Christmas and it's So Bad that I'm questioning whether I can ever love anything again. Help me form a new opinion, friends
Working retail gives you carte blance to dislike any and all forms of popular music

Yeah
Yes, but it really has to be in moderation to be enjoyable.

Out of ten Christmas songs: one will be great, two will be okay/satisfactory and the other seven will be garbage.
And I just can't support that kind of spread.
yeah but you're a GOTHAM cheerleader so I can't get behind any opinions on what amounts to garbage

Also if you feel like you have examples of good/bad/insanely good Christmas songs please post them. I listened to the Flaming Lips Christmas album earlier and it's still good.

Nah
I'm in the nah camp mostly on account of retail scars, but there's a handful of songs that just punch me in the goddamn gut and I can't even sing them without getting choked up.

Nah
There are two christmas songs I listen to every year that make me cry from home sickness. They are both very Australian and they are both literally about being away from home on Christmas

But most is bad bad poo poo trash
but I worked retail for four years
Having worked retail for two weeks, I completely understand.
we also talk about other random shit and clown upon each other
That song is like a guy at a party who's glumly talking about the heat death of the universe while everyone else is trying to have fun.
But Extremely is reserved for Christmas specials.
Congratulations you have described every post Beatles John Lennon song. Paul McCartney's Christmas song is probably my favorite one of all.
Christmas music is terrible on the average with a scant few gems that are decent
A list of things, should you be of the gifting persuasion
McCartney's Wonderful Christmastime isn't nearly as bad but is still mediocre
Former Beatles apparently can't do Christmas music well
I don't know them well but Pandora throws them at me sometimes and I can't say as I care for it
And I just can't support that kind of spread.
There are a couple of exceptions, obviously

Also Pentatonix is bad.
Need some stuff designed or printed? I can help with that.
