When do you start to listen to Christmas music, if you do at all.

[LiveHomeVideo]

I listen whenever it goes on the radio. In other words, I only listen to Christmas music if I come across it in public areas.

I preordered the August Burns Red Christmas album, but didn't have the means to listen to it until Halloween, so, Halloween is when I started.

So... pretty much year round?

I understand why retailers have to start decorating for Christmas a bit earlier than Black Friday but anything else is unacceptable.

Christmas apparently begins before Halloween where I work. Our Christmas decorations started going up in mid-October (albeit behind a curtain, which was removed a week or two ago). Same for the music. It starts off as one Christmas song every once in a great while, now it's the Taylor Swift/Jason Mraz/John Mayer pop that only gets played once in a while.

I never intentionally listen to Christmas music.

I loathe "the holiday season" more and more with each passing year. I only hear Christmas music when it's being played in public, and I don't like any of it. In fact, it kind of makes me want to start fires. (No chestnuts. Just fires.) "Feliz Navidad" is the worst, although I somehow managed to avoid hearing it even once last year. I probably won't be so lucky this time.

Yup. That's not such a rare thing nowadays. It used to be enough that a sixth of the year was considered "the season" for this one freaking day, but even that is no longer sufficient for some people.

Never. It's awful, awful stuff.

[Mega-Tallica]

Never. I try to avoid it as best I can. There's only so many times one person can handle listening to every possible rendition of "White Christmas" or "Silent Night" before you just want to go bat **** crazy.
