Whamageddon (Last) Christmas

[Clint_L]

For me, the Christmas songs I actively try to avoid are any sung by Paul McCartney or John Lennon. Nothing grates on my nerves quite like "Simply Having a Wonderful Christmas Time" or "Happy Christmas (War is Over)"

Strongly agree on the former, but hard disagree on the latter - it's one of the few Christmas songs I somewhat like.

Edit: the lyrics are kind of basic and on the nose, but I've always loved the wistfulness of the opening verse, "So this is Christmas / And what have you done?"

And I'm out. Kid has the Spotify on the car, says "I'm going to play Christmas songs", then does a search and says "there's four different artists for this song."
Wife: "What song is it?"
Kid: "Last Christmas"
Wife: "Wham!"
And that was that.

I also ended up telling my wife about what Whamageddon is and she called it the straightest thing she'd ever heard of
