...for listening to Christmas songs? I don't know if it's because I overdo it on the run-up to Christmas, but I can't bring myself to put one on on Boxing Day or anytime after until the end of November. I know there are 12 days of Christmas so it should be ok to listen to them until the 5th January, but it would be weird to hear one at a New Year's Eve party.
When do you stop?

Generally I don't listen to them after Christmas Day, but I heard Happy Xmas War is Over on the radio this morning, which i found unusual as don't remember hearing a Christmas song on the radio on Boxing Day before, and actually enjoyed it.

I never listen to them after Christmas. I get burned out.
But then I start again on the day after Thanksgiving…

Like most here, I don't listen to them again after Christmas Day, because I associate them more with the build-up to Christmas than the actual Christmas period.

I doubt I'll be playing them anymore.
Although I quite like the Civil Wars two track EP, but that's not really that festive imo. Just nice to listen to.

I don't skip them in the countdown as they tumble down my chart so they're often still just about playing in January.
The more novelty ones fade off very quickly for me, others I can happily continue to listen to in January.

I have 5 or 6 crimbo tracks on my ipod that don't get deleted ,so they sometimes pop up on shuffle at any ol' time of yr.

I dont ever listen to them as a matter of course but if they're on TV or radio I guess it's enforced !

Actually, this year there are a few Christmas songs that I'm still listening to and loving. So far today I've listened to:
Smith & Burrows - When the thames froze
Magnus Carlsson - Arrival (although probably more a New Year's song)
Belinda Carlisle - Christmas lullaby
Emmy the Great & Tim Wheeler - (Don't call me) Mrs. Christmas
Chris Rea - Driving home for Christmas (never tire of this)

We had Tony Christie in the car today singing his fave festive tunes, still sounded ok to me. I have Coldplay - Christmas lights, Gabriella Cilmi - Warm this winter and Andy Williams - It's the most wonderful time of the year on my ipod all year round, but they do tend to get skipped after January  |
