Where do you stand on the "Wonderful Christmastime" issue

[AppleDumpling]

I’m sure I’ve answered before, but I like it. It’s peppy and upbeat. And I have a real soft spot for Sir Paul, so anything he sings is fine by me.

I love it and I'm not sorry about it.

It has 80s Paul and a synthesizer, good enough for me.

I should’ve read before I cast my vote as I was so confused.


Always enjoyed the song, love the werewolf theory.

The versus are
The same four notes.
I'm In the car
My ears are toast.

Simply turn off repetitive piece of junk... Simply turn off repetitive piece of junk.

I'm a major fan of Paul McCartney/The Beatles, I think Wonderful Christmastime sounds literally like Christmas. The synth sounds like twinkly Christmas lights, you have "children" singing, jingle bells, and that song is all Sir Paul playing and singing all the parts.

I say I just voted in an old poll without realizing it until I was 1 page in!

Maybe the worst thing he ever did and that is saying a lot as far as I am concerned.
They used to play it on regular repeat when I worked at a mall way back when.

IMO its just more proof that John Lennon was the real talent of the Beatles.

To be fair, I am not really a Beatles fan anyway, much prefer the Kinks, the Animals, Rolling Stones, the Who and the Dave Clarke Five. Even Herman's Hermits if preferable.

You should listen to Temporary Secretary if you think Wonderful Christmas time is the worst thing Paul has ever done.

WOW that is really bad. I think it was made on one of those $50 keyboards from radio shack. Just wow.

That is worse, but at least they don't play it all the time. That is the real issue with Wonderful Christmas time, it is played all the dang time.

I'll re-iterate my post from 2022 --

"I love it and I'm not sorry about it.

It has 80s Paul and a synthesizer, good enough for me."

My take remains unchanged!

I’m with @firefly_ris. I don’t change the station if it’s on.

What Christmas song I will change no matter who is singing it, Santa Baby. Now THAT’S a dreadful song.

No, thank you. Have a wonderful holiday season.

 

[Kathryn Merteuil]

I still hate it... and I wonder why I catch myself walking around singing it.

 

[Disneylover99]

Well, the song lives on.
It’s on my teen daughter’s playlist. lol.

USA Today, disagrees with you, OP. While it is on their list of worst Christmas songs, they have picked a different one as their top pick.
