minus-squareli10linkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up6·11 months agoYes, I will single-handedly keep this song alive. For real though, I just think it’s a fun song. Maybe I didn’t work retail long enough for it to get to me.
minus-squareharmsy@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up14arrow-down3·11 months agoI have yet to hear a version that’s good. The original literally gave me a nightmare when I first heard it.

minus-squaremeant2live218@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up5·11 months agoThanks! I’ve never heard this version before, but I find it way more listenable than the original.
minus-squarepimento64@sopuli.xyzlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·11 months agoEvery song is enhanced by the addition of a steel drum solo
minus-squareMermaidsGarden@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up11·11 months agoAs a diehard Paul fan I’ll defend Wonderful Christmastime every year. At least it’s not Christmas Time (Is Here Again). Bleh.
minus-squareMoobythegoldensock@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up10·11 months agoThere are a lot of bad one off Christmas songs, but Wonderful Christmastime is the worst one that still gets played every year. And before anyone says it: All I Want for Christmas Is You is the most overplayed, but not the worst. And Christmas Wrapping is the most underrated.
minus-squareViking_Hippie@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up5arrow-down1·11 months agoBest is Queen’s Thank God It’s Christmas. I’m an atheist who considers Christmas way more stress than it’s worth, but I love that song!
minus-squareSpat_U_Later@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·11 months agoI’m so torn on this comment, because Christmas Wrapping is great, but so is Wonderful Christmastime.
minus-squaregrue@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·11 months ago And Christmas Wrapping is the most underrated. So underrated that I’ve barely ever heard it before and had to go look it up to know what you were talking about. (I would’ve said “literally never heard it before,” but the riff in the chorus is ever so slightly familiar.)
minus-squareouRKaoS@lemmy.todaylinkfedilinkarrow-up1·11 months agoI would like to counter with I Want a Hippopotamus for Christmas. That shit is rage inducing
minus-squareGustavoM@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·11 months agoNah, best we do is to listen to depressing songs and talk about toxicity-related subjects for all day long. - The average simpleton.
minus-squareDandroid@dandroid.applinkfedilinkarrow-up3·11 months agoThere are other renditions of the song that I think are fine, but the original makes me want to burst my eardrums. That synth it’s so grating.

You’re welcome :^)

This version sounds kinda goofy.

Too much of a good thing.
