The song "you are my sunshine". It makes me cry when I hear it and I'm not a fan of crying at least not from what should be a happy children's song.
I'm in a similar situation with "little drummer boy", irrespective of the group/ band covering it. My heart hurts when I hear the 'rumpa-pum-pum' and its been like this for decades. :(
That was my dad’s favorite song. Really I don’t listen to Christmas music because it reminds me of when I had parents and extended family.
<Hugs>, if you want. I'm sorry for your loss.
Both this and 'you are my sunshine' just instantly flip an emotional switch for me, I don't know why they make me want to cry but they just do
Do let me know if you come across/invent a cure.
As a gigging musician, I play the Little Drummer Boy challenge every year. Perhaps you would enjoy it!

Thanks for this. I love Christmas music and Christmas would lose flavour if I didn't hear LDB. Now if only my heart would stop hurting at it.
Mine is that song “don’t go chasing waterfalls” because I think the message is bad to tell people
My mom sung this to me all the time as a child, and I get similar emotions.
