Whomever on the spinner staff posted this comment I hope santa leaves you a huge boulder under your Christmas tree. What are you accomplishments? O yeah pathetic comments about people who are no longer here to defend themselves. A lot of people have addictions but to write something as sick and immoral as the one you posted is unforgivable. No inappropriate comments how about inappropriate posting about someone who is dead?

Dear Spinner Staff: for your information, back when this song was done no one worried about being "politically correct" so it was okay to be funny about ANYTHING back then. Before you judge something by today's standards, maybe you should try taking something in context onece in a while. Then your "worst" list here wouldn't be so STUPID

I agree that this should be on this list!!! The holidays are for three things...Reflecting on one's faith, reflecting on what you are truly thankful for, and for getting straight up HOSED...which reminds me ***yells to wife*** "pass the eggnog hun!!!!!"

O K I get it- "rocky mountain high" is cool every other day but Christmas - denver was a hypocritical punk- even his passing cant change that (God rest his soul and help his family)

I was the kid in the song. You must have experienced that moment as a kid to have anything to say. True song. It is like he was looking in the window of my home life when he wrote it. Good song. But it brings back bad memories. I won't let it wreck my Christmas's.

Wow - that's just wrong. Wrong, I tell you. Funny as hell, but wrong....

What on earth made the usually good John Denver do this rubbish. An attempt to send up English Victorian
morality tales?
Sub standard though it is, I've heard more than 12 christmas songs far worse than this

WHY DID HE HAVE TO DO A DRUNK SONG? sheeeesh
AND..
I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT THE "12 DAYS OF CHRISTMAS" SUNG BY...(WHO KNOWS WHO SHE IS?) ABOUT GETTING "BOOZE GIFTS" DIDN'T MAKE THE #1 ALL TIME LOUSY IRRESPONSIBLE SONG "EVER". I'M SICK OF EVPLAINING TO KIDS THAT SHE IS PRETENDING..AND THEY WANT TO KNOW "WHY" NICE HUH??

Yeah, some songs should Definately (emphasis on definately) Be put on this dumb old list. I love the classics and I hate it when New people totally butcher it with there own "Style"
