Holiday post-mortem: Songs that don't make me stabby

I actually don't hate Christmas music. "Jingle Bell Rock" used to make me want to do murder, but I guess the brainwashing is complete because it's grown on me in recent years. That said, I also like a hefty dose of melancholy with my holiday cheer. (Do I feel like dancing or drowning myself in the punchbowl? Hard to say.)

These are two favorites from this year's Christmas playlist:

Winter Song by Ingrid Michaelson and Sarah Bareilles

All that I Want by The Weepies
