Sorry for the delay in today's Hanukkah giveaway! I totally thought this went live this morning but it didn't. My bad! Blame all the fried food I've been eating – makes me sleepy!
Anyway, today's present for you from me is a chance to win a Kindle Touch! Yay! All you have to do is leave a comment with the one holiday song you are SO LOOKING FORWARD TO NOT HEARING ANYMORE.
ETA: I goofed! I want to be clear: this contest is for a Kindle Touch 3G with Special Offers! I linked to the WiFi-only model, but it's the 3G/WiFi/Special Offers model. My bad!
Me: “All I Want for Christmas is You,” which for some reason I have heard six millionity times this week, and “Jingle Bell Rock,” which makes my eyeballs twitch.
Standard disclaimers apply: I'm not being compensated for this giveaway. (I have to say, I'm amused at the idea of even asking someone to sponsor all this crazy. Imagine that conversation!) Your mileage may vary. Void where prohibited by law. Must be over 18 and wearing slippers to win. Open to international winners though it is your responsibilty to make the Kindle do tricks for you. Call before you dig. Preheat to 350.
Happy almost the end of holiday music on the radio, and Happy Hanukkah, and oh! Happy Boxing Day!
The Christmas songs I really hate are the ones that are “done” by dogs or cats…there’s a version of “Jingle Bells” with barking dogs that just makes me cringe….This is why I listen to NPR or audiobooks whenever possible!
I’m kinda freaked out by the Michael Buble version of Santa Baby.
Feliz Navidad by Jose Feliciano. How I hate that song!

Hey folks: a quick update! I goofed!
I want to be clear: this contest is for a Kindle Touch 3G with Special Offers! I linked to the WiFi-only model, but it’s the 3G/WiFi model. My bad! More for you – and my apologies. Back to the Songs We Are Tired Off, which is giving me mighty earworms, let me tell you.
All of them! But the worst one that’s been bugging me all season this year was “Nuttin’ for Christmas” I hate it!
I am SO hoping to never hear “I Want a Hippopotomous for Christmas” ever again.
Do They Know It’s Christmas or whatever it’s called. It makes me want to tear my hair out every time I hear it.
Last Christmas, in any variety. I can stand to listen to that song around a total of 3 times each year, then I’m done. Unfortunately, the radio stations don’t tend to feel the same way.
Do they know it’s Christmas…ugh I’ve avoided as much as possible but shopping with hubby he played Christmas music & I wanted to shove him out of the car!
Rockin’ Around the Christmas Tree. Make. It. STOP.
I am sick of Santa Baby. My daughter has listened to the Taylor swift version 7 million times!
Little Drummer Boy. What a terrible song.
Grandma got run over by a reindeer.
Well, normally I would say that fool “Christmas Shoes” song… But since I mercifully did not get subjected to it eleventh-billion times this season, I guess I will have to say “Feliz Navidad,” which is fun the first ten times, but then rapidly loses it’s charm.
Everything from the Glee Christmas special (thanks, roommate)
That donkey song! I immensely dislike that donkey song!
Though I actually like the song but this year was really a bit much (that’s putting it mildly!!) haha I’ll have to say jingle bell rock
Mariah Carey Xmas songs
JB’s new song “Under the Mistletoe”
(Actually, the song I look forward most to NOT hearing anymore is Adele’s “Someone like you” but that’s not a holiday song…)
Dominic the Donkey drives me up the wall. I hope to never hear it again.
Jingle Bell Rock has gotten on my nerves by now, too. And that’s just from watching TV specials.
Grandma got run over by a reindeer – the song sticks and I can’t stop singing it!
Ahhh if I hear Santa Baby again I might puke. Thanks Rhonda

Christmas Shoes.
Bob Dylan’s “O Holy Night”. Fingers on a blackboard sound better! And since hubby loves the album it’s on ALL THE TIME! Kill me now!
“Santa Baby”… for some reason that song gives me the heebie jeebies. And the perennial 80’s ensemble “Do they know it’s Christmas time?” I just can’t help but think… “probably not, and they probably really don’t care.”
I’m jumping in to vote for “Grandma Got Run Over By a Reindeer”, I’ve heard it way too many times this season…Make It Stop!!!!
The xmas song I’m most looking forward to NOT hearing anymore is “I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus.” I also believe there is a special super-heated section of Hell reserved for pop stars who release Christmas albums in a cynical money-grubbing attempt to commercialize the holidays even further and line their pockets.
Bah Humbug!

Santa Baby … How awful is that woman? She gives us all a bad name! Asking for a sable, a yacht, a deed to a platinum mine, a duplex and checks. Oh yeah, and trim her tree with gifts bought from Tiffany. And why should she get them? “Thank of all the fun I’ve missed, think of all the fellas that I haven’t kissed…”
Ohh that would be White Christmas because as much as I wanted snow for the fam to go skiiing it is foggy! NO SNOW, argh.
I heard O’ Christmas tree at least 52 times this weekend and this morning I put that darn tree outside. That pine fresh scent was turning into sour tree water this past month.
That friggin hippo song. Its cute the first 25 times but that changes lol.
I haven’t heard many this year, just not playing the radio much. But I agree All I Want for Christmas is You has been played to death. Yuck!
Any christmas song sung by anyone born after 1980. And Madonna, because no matter how hard she tries, she does not fit into the former category.
White Christmas.
Baby, It’s Cold Outside. Thanks for the great giveaway.
“Dominick the Christmas Donkey.” Oh Sweet Baby Jeebus…
Santa Baby. What a hootchie-mama she is – run, Santa! Run far away!!
Chesnuts roasting on an open fire, I want a hippopotamus for Christmas, the Twelve days of Christmas, and the one I dislike hearing the most is Chrismas Shoes. It is just too depressing.
The one song I’d be happy to never hear,ever again is Blue Christmas by Elvis.I know,it’s Elvis and I love him,but geez!Whenever I hear Huh-Hil-huh-have-huh bluuuuuuueeee Christmas,I just want to stab a q-tip so far in my ear that I bust my ear drum!
