I'VE BEEN MEANING TO ASK A REALLY STUPID QUESTION

Since when did Let There Be Peas and Carrots on Earth and My Favorite Things become Christmas songs? Suddenly I hear these on the radio along with the mix of so-called "holiday favorites". I don't mind so much the latter, but it's by no means a Christmas song, simply a song from a big hit musical (The Sound of Music). The former: well, barf-o-rama!

Peace,

A secular choral group I direct, (or rather, to whom I spoon-feed the notes of their parts,) sang a medley called "Christmas on Broadway" this year (I have nothing to do with the choice of rep.)
Included with the to-be-expected songs from Mame, Scrooge, Babes in Tolyland and Here's Love was My Favorite Things from S of M.
My thoughts were the same as yours, huh??!?@?$??
