For 100 points.

You know how Christmas music is way overdone. For example, a standard song like Jingle Bells can turn into this. Sometimes it's an improvement. I usually find it annoying. Your mission is to find a travesty. Criteria:
1 The song must be a remake of a classic
2 The song must be over the top to the point of annoyance
3 The singer must be making a serious effort to make a quality song

For that last one, parodies do not count. It also doesn't count if the person is overblowing the song for humorous purposes.

I'll also give special consideration if they completely ruin the original feel of the piece. So a punk rock version of Silent Night has an excellent chance of winning.

And finally, Mannheim steamroller is too awesome to count for this contest. It's not annoying, it's fantastic. If you submit one of these I will reach through the internet and slap you.

I can assume TSB is also on the awesome list?

And as much as I appreciate FF5, I have to say that this song was... Mehgrle

We played the MS Good King Wenselsauasdlfawgihahugenslaus in Band and it was annoying because clarinets only did "bum-bum. bum-bum."

So annoying

Being Norwegian, I have enhanced access to metal music of any kind. Unfortunately this also includes death- and trash-metal.
Testament has made a cover of "Silent Night" which I do believe fits all three criteria quite nicely. And I challenge anyone to be able to hear the whole song through! (Seriously, it's just not worth it. Just skip to the solo in the middle and then to the end :D )

No cheezy, you have to make it.

Now go ahead and make a horrible version of a Christmas song and post it for the rest of us to see :thumbs:
