A bad Christmas song is like no other mediocrity. It has a defiant half-life unlike that of any other kind of mediocrity. Yet others are strangely, mercifully immune to the charms of this music. I both envy and pity them. How, I ask myself, can they possibly go through a Christmas season without experiencing this awful, awesome music. Your blog has been a particularly generous mother lode of just about the worst Christmas music ever written. I want to thank you for the diligence with which you collect and share this music. As a fellow Christmas kitsch obsessive, you have made me feel like I have my sickness under control. But, of course, I know that is a lie--and that I'll be back later today and early tomorrow to see what else you have found for me to savor. Oh my God, I've just written a Christmas prose song-poem of my own. I'll call it "Torn Stocking Stuffer." Now if I can only find a word other than "heist" to rhyme with "Christ."
