  Christmas Abstract
Christmas music is mostly from the latter half of the Twentieth Century, and generally replaces Jesus with Santa Claus.
Much Christmas music is, in fact, quite irreverent about Santa; he kisses mommy under the mistletoe, he is capable of being mugged by the enemies of Ray Davies, Grandma is run over by his reindeer.
In case you can't tell by now, Christmas music annoys me. It is my opinion that there exists a great body of interesting, intelligent, and occasionally theologically sophisticated Christmas carols that are increasingly obscured by the ever-swelling mass of Christmas music.

 Sandow:
One feature of Christmas, of course—one unavoidable feature—is Christmas music, which I love, as long as I’m not forced to listen to it in too many stores.
Christmas carols—and even some of the standard classical Christmas songs, like “Panis Angelicus” or “O Holy Night”—aren’t deep or complex music, and can easily be spoiled, or else made crazily ridiculous, when singers do too much with them.
And pop Christmas songs are secular in the most everyday sense—“I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus,” or “What Are You Doing New Year’s Eve?” That’s their strength; both in their tone and content they ground us in the life we actually live.
