A writer for The Washington Post, well-respected columnist Alexandra Petri, ranked Christmas songs from best to worst the other day. A smooth 100 songs altogether.
The last one on the list?
“Little Drummer Boy,” at 100.
We can only imagine she was confused and got the list upside down or a copy editor flipped it. Because that’s the best Christmas song on the airwaves. Especially Bob Seger’s version.
“Little Drummer Boy” at the bottom, while grandma-gets-runned-overby-a-reindeer is No. 21?
