What the title says. If there are enough responses, I might even create a poll of the options posted here. Or I might not. I'm a lazy sod, to quote Mr Lydon. Ground rules: 1. Fairytale of New York is, of course, the greatest, so no point posting that. We're after Number 2 on down... 2. Schmaltz is good and is to be encouraged. Can't get enough at Christmas 3. Awful artists can redeem themselves at Christmas (Maria Carey, Shaking Stevens) - see Rule 2 4. Despite Rule 3, Boney M are vile and are The Anti-Christmas. If you post them, even as a joke, you need to pour yourself a fine glass of port, slide the old Webley service revolver out of the desk drawer, then step out into the shrubbery and Do The Right Thing So, here's a quick braindump of some of the songs rocking around the Soze Christmas tree: Wham - Last Christmas Lonely This Christmas - Mud Driving Home For Christmas - Chris Rea Patapan/O Come, O Come Emmanuel - Mindy Gledhill 2000 Miles - The Pretenders Blue Christmas - Elvis Christmas (Baby Please Come Home) - Darlene Love Joy To The World - Sufjan Stevens Over to you... |

As much as I admire your musical tastes, apart from Joni Mitchell and Laughing Lenny who are both shit, you're wrong here. Christmas Wrapping by The Waitresses is the greatest crimbo tune. |

Bowie and Bing. Everything else is just noise. |

Both fine tunes. Top 20 probably. |

Merry Xmas Everybody by The Dukes Of His takes some beating. |

I like Fairytale of New York but it’s very over rated. Last Christmas is the best. |

I was once epically broken up with, and "Fairytale" was the background track. So No. In my opinion NOT best crimbo song ever and just as I now steer clear of arses named Mark and Vauxhall Chevettes, I would rather not have Shane whatshisface in my ear... The Power of Love. Frankie Goes to Hollywood. That's best ever. Nothing ever bad happened with that in the cassette deck... |
