Christmas songs can awaken many feelings, from joy and piousness to melancholy and irritation.

Radio presenter Joe Kohlhofer kicked off his 8am show on Friday by barricading his co-host from the studio and locking himself in with the microphone.
Back in October a British man locked himself in a hotel room for four days and listened to Rick Astley’s 1987 hit Never Gonna Give You Up a staggering 2,500 times on repeat all in the name of a charity fundraising drive.
In 2013, DJ Thomas Axmann played “Last Christmas” 16 times in a row, according to Austrian newspaper Die Presse.
However, he only ceased playing the song when his 4-year-old daughter called in to tell him she didn’t like it, Metro reports.
What will happen next to Kohlhofer remains unclear.
Radio station bosses claim his stunt was not sanctioned, and that the DJ blocked the entrance to the studio so that no one else could get in during the show.
Kohlhofer fielded dozens of calls from listeners asking him to stop, according to a video posted to the Antennae Carinthia YouTube channel.
However the station website has featured Kohlhofer’s antics which have garnered them worldwide attention.

The unplanned stunt is thought to be the longest ever broadcast of Last Christmas after it was played 24 times in the two hours available. “The song has become a running gag”.
