Who is the authority here?

So as the holidays roll around and Christmas music permeates the air (LOVE) something bugs me. One particular song is thrown into the Christmas mix each year and I disagree with the fact that it is a Christmas song. Someone please explain?

My Favorite Things - as sung by Julie Andrews in Sound of Music (love that movie, have it on VHS)

Just because it mentions sleigh bells (which were most likely common in Austria at the time during the entire winter) doesn't make it a Christmas song. A winter song - yes. Christmas - notsomuch

Who decided it fits? I'd really like to debate this with them.
