Post your favourite Christmas song (apart from Fairytale of New York)

The Ravonettes…Christmas Song

Siouixe and the Banshees do a rendition of the traditional French carol, Il Est Né le Divin Enfant

Can’t access youtube in work and I’m not going through the whole rigmarole (there’s a word for that words that aren’t used anough thread) of turning to wireless, so let me just say - John Lennon, Merry Christmas, War is Over. The only Christmas song I can abide apart from the Pogues. Oh and the Slade one that Fagan mentioned. OK, I like walking in the air as well. And anything from Wille Wonka, which was on every Christmas Eve when I was growing up, so I associate that film with Christmas. Aprt from that, I fucking hate Christmas songs.

Kid, have you been to have your eyes checked lately? Read the thread title. Between this and noit understanding a post from Fagan last week, I have serious concerns for you eyesight.

Same as Fairytale, you know it is Christmas when you hear the first few bars.

Don’t think I had heard that in it’s entirety before. Great song.

Shane MacGowan’s second best Christmas song isn’t bad at all - Christmas Lullaby

[font=arial][size=3]Just like your dear old dad [/size][/font]
[font=arial][size=3]I hope you grow up brave and strong [/size][/font]
[font=arial][size=3]Not like me - all weak and sad [/size][/font]
[font=arial][size=3]You said “Daddy, daddy, [/size][/font]
[font=arial][size=3]You’re stinking of booze” [/size][/font]
[font=arial][size=3]I kissed him and said, "Kid, [/size][/font]

Top call Juhy…:clap:

I spent a couple of christmases in college working as a merchandiser for guinness in supermarkets. Christmas music nonstop. I can’t abide most of them now but this is superb.
