It's just that in the DINAO version of Little Drummer Boy vs. Grandma Got Run Over By A Reindeer, I would choose the latter.
Because nothing says "Season's Greetings" like DINAO.

Spike's Bitches 47: Someone Dangerous Could Get In
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

I am jealous because his other aunt gets to see him more often but Mom swears when he does pretend play he includes me in it and he talks about me more.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Sums up my holiday feels quite well.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
There are multiple decent versions of Little Drummer Boy including Joan Jett's, and one by the Hoodoo Gurus.
Not to mention the Harry Simeone Choir's version (LP sold exclusively at Texaco Stations).

Our wings are not tired.
Little Drummer Boy has always been my favorite Carol. I love the message very much and find the song very soothing.
Do any of you live near a Pier 1? I honest to god have to AVOID that store (all locations) from mid-Nov to the new year. Their holiday music is the absolute most annoying, loud, intrusive "Christmas' music that ever tortured shoppers anywhere. I even called their customer service last year after I was trying to spend a gift certificate and couldn't stand the horrible crap over the speakers and simply left the store. It's ALL auto-tuned shit sung by American Idol rejects.

Feh.
I'm just listening to a gorgeous mandolin version of "Bring a Torch, Jeanette Isabella" by Chris Thile.
Do you want a copy of my Trad Xmas mix? All bluegrass and folk and pretty melodies. "In the Bleak Midwinter," "Ring the Bells at Midnight," "Children Go Where I Send Thee," "Coventry Carol," "The Holly and the Ivy"...

Oh thanks, but I've got a great collection of carols built over the years (we probably overlap on a lot of it because much of it is folk/bluegrass and traditional). I just have to stay out of Pier 1.

I'm saying, THAT'S how much I dislike Drummer Boy. It's all the pa-rum-pa-pums. Seriously. Nonsense words (even if they're meant to be onomatopoeic) bother me. (Similarly, I can't stand "We Go Together," or whatever it's called, from Grease. SPEAK ENGLISH.)

Maybe it's their way of acknowledging that their various relationships are going to survive graduation by four months tops. "We go together like a stream of nonsensical gibberish! Seriously, we have no idea what we're doing here!"
I am profoundly indifferent to the Little Drummer Boy, save from the point of view of its breathtakingly revisionist approach to the Synoptic gospels. I may have to track down the Gurus' version, though, because it could only be improved by the addition of the percussive stylings of "Like Wow - Wipeout".
