It depends what it is!
The artificial, sickly, Disney-esque , pseudo-sentimentality of the supermarket slush... no, no, thrice no!
Some pop songs - maybe, but very few I soon forget, and I'd not miss them.
Religious music? Now here's a curious thing.
I am not religious and tend to the non-Christian rather than Christian side of the turn-of-the-year celebrations; but do find a lot of carols, and services like the annual broadcast Festival of Nine Lessons and Carols, from King's College, Cambridge (University chapel) very uplifting.
Similarly too, I enjoy the annual round-Europe shared broadcast of mainly-religious, some folk, Christmas music from maybe ten countries in turn; run by the European Broadcasting Union and transmitted in Britain by BBC Radio Three.
