Xmas music

Another reason I dislike this season (Are there others?) is the horrible sappy music one hears on the radio all the time. There are very few popular Christmas songs that I have ever liked and at the risk of being boiled in oil I will say that my favorite is "The Little Drummer Boy" with "Winter Wonderland" being second. My favorite of the religious carols is "Once in Royal David's City". For my taste that is the most beautiful but of course there is the majestic "Adeste Fideles" or "Hark, the Herald Angels Sing" to rouse the spirit. To be fair however, I can lay part of the blame for my dislike of pop Christmas music on the atrocious arrangements and they get worse year by year.
