My then fiance (now wife) played it for me and I made her turn it off before my ears seceded from my head in protest. Now I'm deathly afraid to hear this Stevie Nicks tune, since apparently it's even worse. Dang, someone beat me to the Avril Lavigne atrocity.

If I hadn't known better, I would have mistaken it for Ms. Nicks herself. O Holy Night by Avril Lavigne---Ugh. I think I might have to kill myself now.

I may have to kill you now. Of course, once she let the vibrato loose a bit it sounded better because she does have a nice voice...when she lets it out of the bag, which is almost never so there you go. By the way, the Stevie Nicks version of Silent Night was a bit unholy, but at least she included all the lyrics to the song. I think the worst Christmas recording I have ever heard (and my work plays them a lot, as well as the radio at home for our lonely cockateil) is Jessica Simpson's rendition of "Little Drummer Boy" which she sang a duet on with her *urp sister. While I held high hopes for it, I almost beat my monitor with my keyboard because Jessica sounds like she recorded it while in the john and she's having a little trouble dropping a number 2. Sorry to Jessica Simpson fans out there, but my heavenly days that song is sacrilege. I also heard a doozie when shopping in Dollar Tree the other day but what the song was and who it was that sang it escapes me. I do know that I was wandering around the store, wondering why recording studios don't seem to care that beloved Christmas songs are getting raped by talentless clods all the time. I mean, money lust really can only go so far.... Yes, Heli? I may have to kill you now.
