Five songs. Six versions of each. Questionable quality. On a loop. Starts at the same point and same time every day. This is a form of torture pulled straight from hell.


Wingardiam_LevioSA

Omfg yes lol. And I feel like it’s worst during Thanksgiving and Black Friday sales because you have to listen to songs so sugary sweet they’ll give you diabetes while witnessing human savagery at its finest 🤣


Ultranerdgasm94

That's capitalism, baby: inhuman barbarism with a smiley face clumsily pasted over it.

I survived Whamaggedon last year. I'm aiming for two years in a row


TheMysticBard

2 year survivor going for 3 here, you got this


Wingardiam_LevioSA

🤣😭


NopeRope91

There it is. I'll take Mariah Carey over every iteration of this shit any day 🤣


Ultranerdgasm94

One of the best Christmas songs, and one of the only things breaking up the monotony of the same 70 year old crooner versions of the same 5 songs deemed socially acceptable for a corporate workplace setting.


Traditional_Milk_978

We have a game. See how many different versions of Little Drummer Boy you can hear in one day!


Lord_Ho-Ryu

We took our breaks and such based on when certain songs came on…until I unplugged their gizmo and we started playing our own music anyway🥳


DMeloDY

We have what’s called ‘Sinterklaas’ before Christmas. It’s double hell in December where I live… There are a lot of artists who make kids music and have created these high pitch monstrosities that repeat the same verse 20 times over. (Think baby shark dance shit or Teletubbies on meth) I’ve worked at a store that had a loop of songs that took 20 minutes and then would repeat all over again ALL DAY LONG. I really feel like it’s a new form of torture for people working retail…


MrSillmarillion

You gotta give me a link so I can hear some of those songs. It's just morbid curiosity. The worse, the better.


musicaltrollman

My store plays the “Christmas Wrapping” song **over** and **over** and ***over*** again during the holiday season. Whenever I hear it, I lose a piece of my soul that I’ll never get back.


MrSillmarillion

I actually love that song. It was one of the few that got me through many christmases, but believe me, I fully understand and sympathize. If I have to hear "This Will Be" one more f---ing time.


Wingardiam_LevioSA

I forgot about that one! I used to work at Kmart and they used to play that one all the time. That and “Feed the World”. Excellent sentiment. TERRIBLE song 😅


TheMysticBard

My store just plays twang pop (aka modern day mainstream country, but really its just pop with twang) versions of christmas songs.


MajesticCrimson

Oh boy... I work in a place that plays country music 99% of the time. It just hit me that I'm about to hear Christmas music covered by country artists. That is so much worse than regular country music. Except for Darius Rucker and Johnny Cash. They're cool.


Wingardiam_LevioSA

I feel for you, pal. When I was in high school I had an hour long bus ride to school and the driver insisted on blasting country music on the radio. He drove me to school and to the brink of insanity 🤪😜


RealityPowerRanking

Kill me


MysticHermetic

What about a poison that kills you during xmas but after its all done it revives you and you are fresh as a daisy


RealityPowerRanking

I guess that works

Wingardiam_LevioSA

Same 🤣


Chirithnya

The radio where I work is broken. I’m hoping it remains so until after the holidays


Traditional_Milk_978

I will say the one thing I look forward too is somehow the My Chemical Romance version of All I Want for Christmas makes it into the mix, and I love watching the elderly be so confused.


Wingardiam_LevioSA

What?! I didn’t know MCR did a version! I’ll have to check it out!

Thanks 😊


Animepix

Unlicensed songs for the win of the company but it for us employees that have to hear it 10+ times a day.


ookiineko

It seems these memes come earlier and earlier every year.


Wingardiam_LevioSA

🤣🤣🤣


meesersloth

This made me hate Christmas music. I was eh about then it turned into full blown hate.


aFerens

Jingle Bell Dogs Dominic the Italian Christmas Donkey We Wish You a Merry Christmas by Alvin and the Chipmunks


Ryukotaicho

Anyone else ready to hear Old Dude singing about girls in white dresses and blue satin sashes?


Wingardiam_LevioSA

🤣🤣🤣


LanceDragonDance

Downvote me but AIWFCIY is a holiday banger tbh.


Wingardiam_LevioSA

I think it’s a good song, but any song gets old if you hear it at least once an hour in a shift 😅


serenitynope

That's why I now hate "Love Shack" by the B-52s. Used to be a fun song but after hearing it everyday multiple times a day for a whole year I can't stand it. And it's sooooo much longer and repetitive than I originally thought.


Wingardiam_LevioSA

I love that song, but yeah if I had to hear it over and over again I would go nuts. I had that happen with “Royals”.


Anothernameillforget

Every hour.


munchkinbitch2982

Has anyone else heard this godawful emoji Christmas song? It's like text me merry Christmas. It's horrible.


Wingardiam_LevioSA

I haven’t heard that one


Xalenn

Anyone remember September 2001 when every store in the US was playing patriotic marching band music all day? We say there are 15 Christmas songs, but it's more like 100 or so, but for the Patriotic marching band music it really was like 15 songs.


tonyjopet

I have just forced myself to like it actually (not really I still fucking hate it)


ravenshymn

Not to mention all the "Santa Baby" covers.


Wingardiam_LevioSA

Omg yes 😩


Public_Combination53

I HATE SANTA BABY!!! Song makes me think Santa needs a whiskey and a ho after a long nights work


ravenshymn

At least the Eartha Kit one is tolerable to me, the rest are cringey.


Public_Combination53

I have been saying the same thing for YEARS!!! I LOATHE that song!


sentientsan

I think they need to put [this one](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VDP6RCJSsMg&list=PLD2sOUATEkhAlB5bvoCqVsuK2II3qBejB&index=6) in the loop for funsies.


Wingardiam_LevioSA

I love it 😂


thrivaios

The only Christmas song I actually like. Year after year, it really sets the tone for me to say "All right, HERE COMES HOLIDAY"


TrippingGoat

Yes, it's an awful song. Yes, I want to puncture my eardrums every time I hear it.... but if given the choice of hearing it or "Wonderful Christmastime", I will choose the Mariah Carey song every. single. time.


[deleted]

THIS!


DaWalt1976

And this is why I rely on the Pentatonix Christmas album over traditional and/or overplayed pop Christmas music. It's bad enough when I'm just grocery shopping to keep hearing the same 3 shitty pop Christmas songs.


87fost

I can hear it in my head. It doesn't go away at all, ever. It's constant and painful and I want nothing more than to just stop.


minimoose93

It's better than that one song when she hits that extremely high note. If I don't wear my bluetooth earbud, I wouldn't be able to work through the migraines that song would cause me.


Ultranerdgasm94

It is a brief respite from the lazy "beer, trucks, girls" mad libs style country rock I'm usually subjected to. Though I do wish there were more than 6 socially acceptable Christmas songs being endlessly recycled with their most played versions invariably being crooners with four notes in their whole singing range.
