She was in her Who's That Girl phase, and it fit in perfectly with her persona when it was released.

Now, Paul McCartney's tune? Not so good. Springsteen's? A little tough to take. But Cyndi Lauper's Christmas Conga? That's one of my favorites! And how could they leave out The Christmas Shoes by NewSong? That is easily the hands-down winner for the worst Christmas song of all time. No contest.
