Anti-Christmas Songs Redux

Last edited Mon Dec 24, 2018, 12:53 PM - Edit history (1)

Revived for this Christmas....enough with the holly jolly Christmas-don't listen to the Cat Carol song unless you're prepared to shed a tear or two. May next year be better than the last. Despite this dark collection of songs, I wish all of DU a very merry Christmas, a wonderful holiday season and a hopeful New Year. Feel free to add your own anti-Christmas songs (Grandma Got Run Over By a Reindeer does not fit the definition).
















Alleluia noel, be it heaven or hell, the Christmas we get we deserve.

I believe this one from the Dropkick Murphys aligns with your spirit. There's mischief and mayhem and songs to be sung...Some families are messed up and some families are fine, if you think yours is crazy then you should see mine!

I can't believe I never heard that before. It's a keeper. And yes, that's exactly the mood I'm after.

If not just for the title alone. Those are some great anti-Christmas type lyrics and the music is excellent.
