Cliff Richard has three songs among the top 10 fearful festive tunes. <\/p>\n

In a poll, 1,500 Brits were asked to name their most annoying Christmas tracks. <\/p>\n

Despite Ladbaby\u2019s 2018 No1 \u2013 We Built This City\u2026 On Sausage Rolls \u2013 landing top spot, Sir Cliff\u2019s music came 2nd, 3rd and 4th, landing the 83-year-old an \u201cunwanted hat-trick\u201d.<\/p>\n

The star, born Harry Webb in 1940, has sold more than 250million records worldwide and had four festive No1s.<\/p>\n

His 1988 smash Mistletoe and Wine was fourth on the Crimbo cringe list, with 1990\u2019s Saviour\u2019s Day in third. <\/p>\n

But his Millennium Prayer from 1999 was the second-worst.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Alison Taylor, 54, of Watford, Herts, said she used to love Sir Cliff, adding: \u201cHe\u2019s been around forever, but I prefer his 60s and 70s stuff, not his Christmas songs.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey are all a bit too preachy for me and make me cringe whenever I hear them.\u201d<\/p>\n

A spokesman for Ladbrokes Live, which ran the study, said only Ladbaby was \u201ckeeping him from getting the top three Christmas turkeys\u201d.<\/p>\n

Nicola McGeady, of Ladbrokes Live, said: \u201cThere is no doubt Sir Cliff Richard is a household favourite, but his festive offerings from 1988, 1990 and 1999 have been voted as among the the most annoying Christmas songs ever.\u201d<\/p>\n
