This song is not just some random bootleg cover. It's a soundboard of Christmas Classic that will surface every year around the holidays. I could see casual fans including this on their compilations and enjoying all those songs for years to come, as done with most artists... I think it was just a bad decision taking a questionable vocal and mix it with bad production (backing vocals) knowing that it was going to be released on a Soundboard and played every year for years to come. Casual fans won't care enough to know the real story.
But no one is going to write off the band from one dodgy x-mas performance. Of course it'll get more views between November and December but there's tons of solid holiday covers they've done that this is a blip in a drop in a bucket, I think you're over-worrying.
