Is it too early to play Christmas music?

There are 54 days until Christmas – is it the season to be jolly yet?

IT’S THE FIRST day of November, and for the festive fanatics out there it is officially time to dust off the Christmas playlist.

We’re not at the chestnuts roasting on an open fire/Christmas hysteria stage yet, but there are some shops who have their decorations up, and lights have been spotted hanging on city streets, just waiting to be switched on.

But is it too early for all of that? Should the tunes wait until the more traditional start date of December?

So today we’re asking: Is it too early to play Christmas music? 


Poll Results:

Yes, we should wait until December (5022)
 Let's wait a couple more weeks (1114)
No, bring on Christmas! (742)
Christmas music isn't for me, at any time of the year (407)
