Best of the Worst
But those are only bad because the artists are crappy... What I am really interested in are the ones that are soooooo bad, that they take on a mythical life of their own fraught with campiness and sappiness. So, tell me your nominations for the BEST of the Worst.
I nominate "Once Upon A Christmas..." by Kenny Rogers and Dolly Parton. As a kid I watched their Christmas special on television and came to picture Mrs. Claus as a buxom woman with extrordinarily large hair and Santa as a tipsy clown who spent most of the time chasing Mrs. Claus around in his bright red long underwear. Ahhh..... memories. My favorite song is "Christmas to Remember". It's about to sad people who come together at some ski lodge and have sex in front of a fire place and then drink hot cocoa. At least I think that's what it's about....
(listen to samples of this awesomely bad album here.)

I vote for merry xmas from the space age bachelor pad by Esquivel! Esquivel! has a wonderful grasp of hip lounge music, but I don't think I've ever before heard a Christmas album that seemed so uniquely inappropriate.
Feliz Navidad, baby!
does Christmas with the Chipmunks count?
