I would like a playlist to play really loud when we put our Christmas decorations up next month. So I thought, what better place to ask then MN? What are your favourite Xmas songs? I need ideas to create a playlist - thank you all!

The title made it very clear what the thread was about. You could have chosen to scroll past. You don't have to be an arse of every thread just because it appears in AIBU.

All I want for Christmas is you - Vince Vance and the Valliants

I always wonder if people who try to police others on mumsnet are as condescending to people in real life. Are you?

The hat I got for Christmas is too big. If you’ve got small kids, it’s a winner!

JerkintheMerkin · 27/11/2021 09:06

Found a very funky Christmas gem that I will be waking up to:

Santa's got a bag of soul by The Poets of Rhythm.

Malibuismysecrethome · 27/11/2021 09:08

Gloria Estefan “Love on Layaway”

ThinWomansBrain · 27/11/2021 09:12

just play Tracy Thorn's Tinsel and lights album on repeat.

AvonCallingBarksdale · 27/11/2021 09:15

Thanks OP this has actually been the catalyst I needed for starting to feel a bit more Christmassy Smile. All great suggestions and absolutely must have Feels Like Christmas by Low.

ShinyMe · 27/11/2021 09:17

Nobody's mentioned my absolute favourite yet! If you are yet to discover this CLASSIC then you're so lucky, I wish I could hear it again for the first time.

I Want a Hippopotamus for Christmas, Gayle Peevey.

TheVanguardSix · 27/11/2021 09:21

Christmas Unicorn by Sufjan Stevens (bonkers and brilliant)
The Vince Guaraldi Trio ‘A Charlie Brown Christmas’ has some corkers.
I do love a bit of Christmas kitsch.
For something more traditionally beautiful:
Sasha Cohn’s version of Carol of the Bells on Spotify.

FilthyforFirth · 27/11/2021 09:29

Pentatonix - the whole Christmas album!

Most Wonderful Time of the Year

It's beginning to looo a lot like Christmas

In Ducle Jublio

Christmas (baby please come home)

Everybodys waiting for the man with the bag

Someday at Christmas

Christmas in Hollis

Man I could go on and on, bloody love a Christmas playlist! Enjoy

@HoseMeDownWithHolyWater

Warm This Winter.

Underrated.

I used to like this song. That was until our co op radio station played it constantly about every 15 minutes from mid November right up till Christmas
BonnyEm · 27/11/2021 09:37

I love Leona Lewis One more sleep
And Kelly Clarkson Underneath the tree

Also, Sia Snowman, it's my ds's favourite Smile
