Sacred? Christmas music is sacred? Popular Christmas music is awful. Every major artist seems obligated to do their Christmas renditions and the songs are vapid or bad remakes of already bad songs.

Seriously. Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer praises bullying. That song needs to die a thousand deaths and never show up again.

AI may actually make better Christmas music than the slop we are already subjected to every single year.

I've been going through my LP records and found a 3-LP "Columbia Musical Treasures" from 1975, 36 "great" songs from 36 "great" artists like Debbie Reynolds, Wayne Newton, The Johnny Cash Family, and others, and they're okay. Everyone's numbed to the 50-100 Christmas radio and mall staples, but popstars dropping shitty Christmas renditions every year is part of the tradition.

Christian radio does sacred slop fine just by itself. Gimme some real sacred AI slop, like Gregorian/Tibetan chant, Hawaiian nose humming and Tuvan throat singing
