What's your favourite Christmas song?

[jimbob23]

Can't help feeling we've already discussed this, but even so...

I'm torn between 'I Wish it Could Be Christmas Every Day' by Roy Wood & Wizzard and 'Fairytale of New York' by the Pogues and Kirsty MacColl, or however the feck you spell her name. Depends on my mood really.

There really have been some shit ones though.

 

[Andreas Rex]

Has to be Fairytale of New York. Good tune at any time of the year

 

[BBC]

Its gotta be Cliff! Hasn't it

 

[Augustus Gloop]

When I worked at Mike Lloyds this would sell shitloads at Christmas:

It's worth a spin once but repeated listens just push me close to the edge.

Getting back on topic, Cliff Richard - The Millennium Prayer. No question. Although Ronan Keating and Maire Brennan's version ofFairy Tale Of New York is a close second.

I was thinking mistletoe and wine, but hey they are both crimbo classics!

Also Slade. For me this is christmas

Absolutely woeful. I especially like the way that Ronan Keating's voice is so shit that at points he can't reach the low notes and his voice fades out. Smug twat.

I actually quite like it. To my mind, Mariah Carey's best song. Although that's not saying much. Knocks Samantha Mumba's version into a hatted cock.

how can you hate xmas?? even if you're not into the materialism/religion/joy/etc. it's still a couple of days off work and yet another excuse to start drinking at 10:00am.. i honestly don't understand when people claim to "hate xmas"

oh, and to get back on track - Tale Of New York

Christmas Wrapping-The Waitresses "genius"

Ohh, at the risk of sounding elderly, I went to Lichfield Cathedral the other day for a carol service and the choir did that song, it was beeeeeoootiful.
