So who is this imposter who is messin' with my "Jingle Bell Rock"?

Someone has remade one of my favorite Chirstmas songs and now the Sirius station I listen to (24 hr Christmas music) plays only the remake and not the original.

I am not happy with this development. {#emotions_dlg.mad}

Pet peeve delivered; carry on.....

is it the GLEE version? i know they have been playing that, but i have also heard the traditional jingle bell rock on the HOLLY channel.

we have an FM station that plays only christmas music from thanksgiving through the new year and have heard it on there also.

my car radio is tuned to these stations AND i have sirius/xm on my cell phone.

Brenda Lee did it best.

I hate when they take good old classic songs and put their twang or hip hop to it. It's not the same and I don't like them.

Give me the old classics every time.

""Jingle Bell Rock"" is by Bobbie Helms.

Brenda Lee did ""Rockin' Around the Christmas Tree"".

Both great and my favorite versions of these classics.

I would shoot an email to Sirius and complain. It's worth a shot...
