Yep, I was listening to a radio station playing Christmas songs and the host had a competition on who sang Christmas songs the best. They only had 2 competitors though, Mariah and Dolly. I thought that was stupid as Mariah is known for that "All I Want" song and I don't even know what songs Dolly is known for concerning Christmas. The host also said those 2 singers "belted Christmas songs like no one else. Also stupid and not true.


For me I hate that "All I Want" song. I turn the radio down whenever it comes on. I wouldn't pick either of them nor anyone else as there are too many people that have done well singing Christmas songs. Too many to even consider putting one on the top.
