So, Christmas is just over two weeks away, and you're struggling to get into the festive spirit, eh? We feel your pain. Not even the constant jingle of bells and ho-ho-hos in every shop, café and pub we set foot in can change our minds.
How do you deal with your lack of festive cheer? Well, instead of trying to do a 180-turn and force yourself to conform, we say embrace the bah-humbug-ness of it all.
Below, you'll find 8 Christmas songs for people who don't like Christmas. Or, at least 8 weird Christmas songs that will make you laugh in the face of fake fun (we're not vouching for their musical quality, FYI). In short, you can take your Slade and Shakin' Stevens, and shove 'em where the sun don't shine.
