I have no idea why, but I used to believe that "The Little Drummer Boy," my favorite Christmas carol as a child, and "Do You Hear What I Hear?" were the same song. Except the former was the original and better version, while the latter was a crappy spinoff in which someone had decided to mess with the tune and add their own lyrics. Whenever I heard "Do You Hear What I Hear?" sung on the radio at Christmas, I felt angry at the artist for singing "The Little Drummer Boy" wrong and ruining it.
