I used to work at a major outdoors retailer. The music on blast wasn't too bad most of the year because they actually had like a 12-hour playlist, so nothing repeated.
Then Christmas arrived. There were still no repeat tracks throughout the day. But the thing about Christmas songs is that there's only like 10 songs that have each been recorded by like 15 different artists, so while the individual recordings didn't repeat, we'd still hear the same song 8 times a shift.
Seriously, nothing wrong with the old carols, but people need to write new ones or something. blef.
And people did. There's tons of new Christmas songs written every year. But they a) don't catch on, b) are not in the public domain obviously.
IT'S LOVELY WEATHER FOR A SLEIGH RIDE TOGETHER WITH YOUUUUUUU
Americans are fucking amateurs. In Japan (they also have stores in Hawaii and Guam) there is a retailer called Don Quixote (it’s like upscale Japanese Target). They play one song and ONE SONG ONLY on repeat during all business hours. 365 days a year.

They play the new one now
Yup, can confirm! Same goes for Yodobashi Camera

Why touch perfection?
Who is this woman?
Nobody know. She just appear one month and disappear for the rest of the year. Though someone suggest she's actually Christmas Spirit, and Santa Claus is the one seal her in ice every year.
I wish it was just a month
More serious answer: it's Mariah Carey in the music video for "All I want for Christmas is you", https://youtu.be/aAkMkVFwAoo
Thanks. Now that I hear it, I am familiar with the song, but had never watched the music video.
I think Maryhanna Grande?
She can fuck off until December.
Her and George Michael.
