Jingle Bells - Amy Grant

There have been so many people who have done Jingle Bells, many of who consider themselves actual artists. As a result, there are many, many bad versions out there to choose from. One could, for instance point to Crash Test Dummies version as the worst one ever, and they would probably be right. Although, a case can be made that they stayed true to their bizarre musical style, so they are only getting an "honorable mention" here.
