Plenty of faggots in Wolverhampton aren't there? Isn't it their local delicacy? Remember having them with chips in a pub near the train station.

They’re playing a sanitized version with some words changed/removed Is your thread title meant to be ironic?

And I'm not sure if we can go anywhere near Gary Glitter's "Rock and Roll Christmas".! "It's good to see friends I know Kissing under the mistletoe I love to hear the children sing It looks like Santa's gonna bring . . . . . . Presents hanging from the tree You'll never guess what you've got from me" . great song.

Man I'm glad I read this thread! All these years I thought those lyrics were:
I saw Mommy pissing on Santa Claus last night...
This is going to save a TON in counseling....

Why is it the worst? Just curious. Perhaps worst was the wrong word The most annoying song of all time It's just so fake It becomes even more annoying along with Noddy Holders pension plan playing on a loop every 15 minutes in your place of work by the teenagers pressing buttons at Heart radio. Unfortunately that's the popular vote and 10pm Wednesday can't come soon enough 😫.

The bonus of Covid lockdown, etc is that in not going to the shops I haven't had the usual Christmas overload of those top tunes

Get the ear plugs out! Who’s brave enough to listen? I recommend it as a torture weapon for people you hate.

It is the anti Christmas song and it's a bit of fun. That Bon Jovi version does sound particularly shit though. Part of the reason it's a fun song is because Shane MacGowans off his fucking tits. Not quite the same effect.

It's not an anti Xmas song, it's a full on Xmas song just like the others. Magowan... always been a faker, no time for the man As for fun, had more fun at the dentist's. All subjective opinion of course 😁

I would suggest that you're harbouring an unpopular opinion but then again nothing is ever universally liked or disliked... With the exception of The Backstreet Boys, they're just fucking shit.

Still like many Christmas songs....heard ONCE....not 20 times in a week, even in the damned bathrooms. But I've never been a fan of anything by Bon Jovi, Backstreet Boys or Justin Bieber...even once.
David Byrne once predicted that at some time in the future, people will actually pay to hear SILENCE. Where we once considered it a treat to hear music being played, there are times now that we grow weary of it - and for good reason. Music is launched at us from every angle and has become heavily commercialized/butchered. The same songs are regurgitated by artist after artist, often in bad taste and even worse execution. One example is here in the US. Kay's Jewelers has an ad with some chick who sounds like she's overdosed on Hydrocodone mumbling through Cyndi Lauper's "Time After Time" so badly, you can barely make out what she's singing. To me, that's a lack of respect to the original artist and song. And don't even get me started on the drug commercials! Taking disco hits and changing the lyrics to fit diarrhea and skin ailments. Most television shows and movies now have what I call the "gratuitous music video" portion where the actors just stare off into space while some "allegedly cool" song plays. That was okay at first even powerful, but now they do it so much that it's just a "filler" to get to more advertisements.
I just think that at times, we grow weary of it in general and thus, are more critical of what we're hearing due to that.

Heard the song today on the radio with the changed lyrics. Never noticed it before as I've always been distracted by stuff. Disappointed that a classic has been changed though. I never thought of the lyrics as offensive though. Maybe im in a minority in this mad mad world we live in.

Slightly unrelated, but let us not forget that Kirsty McaColl paid the ultimate price for saving her little boy from certain death. We'd all do it but heck... what a woman! She was also backing singer on Jona Lewies always find me in the kitchen at parties song on top of the pops . She didn't sing on the record though Love The Pogues especially the Hell's Ditch record. Fairytale like any Xmas song is overplayed,Jem Finer the co writer born in Stoke of course. Shane and Victoria used to get into McSorley's in NY , hard work but certainly not fake. Great lyricist which is rare today. Not surprised by the lyric thing as the precious crew these days get offended by everything
